While our male lives are simpler, that doesn't make them better. Think of the experience as the difference between color tv and b+w. The nuances in emotional expression and friendships and even yes in clothing choices are limited. Women's close.friends generally share things on a level that men don't. And while we don't get treated as sex objects there is the problem of other men being hostile or competative. Some guys are always looking for a fight!
We do have the.advantage of picking and chosing when to live female. So we generally pick dancing, shopping, partying, and enjoying food and good company. And believe me, I can relate to the lewd stares and feeling threatened at night!
