I'd be miserable. I love my men! Plenty of them wouldn't be missed, but the good ones are amazing enough that it's worth having to wade through the a**holes of their gender to find them.

I wonder what that would be like.

What do you think it would be like if there was no opposite gender for you?

(PS- Just a heads up, I don't really mean for this thread to turn into one where people lament about their lack of options or prospects. I mean it as something else)
Honestly, I would feel pretty atrocious, especially if many of the males near me are aggressive ones.

If I was surrounded by only gay and bisexual males (who were not aggressive at all), then things might be a bit easier for me, especially if some of these males would be willing to cross-dress during intercourse.

I would hate it. I both like men and like being my true gender.

No Men: Who'd hold the doors, take out the trash, change a tire, open a jar lid, shovel the walkway, plow the roads, climb up ladders to rescue us in a fire, carry heavy packages, drive transports?

No women: Who'd cook meals, wash floors, wash toilets (a proper job by hand) , set out a beautiful Christmas dinner, keep the house clean, be secretaries, clean up vomit, change light bulbs, change the toilet paper rolls, mend clothes?

No, in all seriousness, we could possibly live without each other, but what a boring life and a lot of life skills, trades and jobs that are gender oriented could definitely be done by the opposite sex, but many would be lost forever to the history books.

I once read a joke about a world with no men: There'd be a lot of fat, happy women. lol

Both sound terrible (all men or all women) tbh. I'm glad we have both, it balances things out.

I guess prisons are the closest thing to how life would be like.

Futurama did a funny episode about this ("Neutopia"), where everyone suddenly switched genders, and then even became "genderless". Needless to say they all eventually got bored and begged to be returned to their original gender!

Oh, I don't believe this AT ALL. Women have always chosen to fight (with each other primarily), only more passive-aggressively and strategically. Female wars, typically, are cold wars, but they are vicious.

If there were no longer men around to wage active war, however, then women would take up where the men left off and engage in more male-oriented demonstrations of their competitiveness and aggression.

Heck, yeah, there would be conflicts and wars. Tragically...
