Hey Pandas, What Is Something You Have Always Wanted To Ask The Opposite Gender? (Closed)
What is something you have always wanted to ask the oppostite gender?

Gentlemen, how often do you *really* think about the Roman empire?
Why do you guys pee while standing? Its more mess, less convinent, so why? If you can sit and poo, why not just sit and pee?
If there's a normal toilet AND some a*****e hasn't peed on the seat AND it is not a public toilet (e.g. a friend's house, family member house, etc) I always sit to pee. It makes less mess. However, if it's a public toilet, the risk of contacting a pee puddle or a poop smear or some other grossness doesn't make it worthwhile. ALSO, probably TMI, but the thing on the front often touches the porcelain which grosses me out.
How do y'all just decide how to greet each other? Like the thing where you grab hands and pat each other on the back-it seems to just be an instinct.
Easy. Business acquaintance that you want to get money out of : handshake. Business acquaintance that you barely know and don't give a rats about, nod. Buddy/friend : two hand handshake, high five, or hug. Also, the hug must have two pats to indicate how long it lasts. More than two pats is gay. <- humour
what is it like having to deal with so called "alphas"
Alphas are normally the most "beta" people you will ever meet. Best to ignore them.
What do you (non-women) think is the best and worst part about being a woman
Honestly, the periods. I don't think I could handle a portion of that pain, and here we have girls and women who put up the s**t of daily life while dealing with that.
!0,000 upvotes. I'll take the rest, including misogynistic jerks, over the bleeping periods!

Worst must be periods, Best must be the absolute certainty that a baby is yours
Best part: being less hairy. I hate body hair with a passion. Worst part... obviously patriarchy, but I think periods is probably second worst.
Women are less hairy but have to spend more time removing hair from legs, underarms, upper lip, facial hair (if they have it.)

As a trans man… I don’t think there is anything wrong with being a woman it’s just either you are or you aren’t. And periods suck.
I don't know if it's the "best" part, but as a dude I'm very jealous of women's fashion and ability to accessorize. I mean, us dudes have surprisingly little variability in clothing, and without make up, if you're ugly, you just ugly. Plus rings and necklaces and so forth. It'd be nice to have options. I mean, obviously guys CAN wear these things, but on a level of social acceptability and manual labor jobs, it's not really feasible.
Best part: Clothing styles. So many and some of you can literally pull off any styles. Worst part: Definitely periods. I don't experience it and I'm thankful. Sudden bleeding and so many different levels of pain makes me wonder how on earth can anyone handle that?
I'm on the pill so I can pretty much pinpoint when it's coming and prepare accordingly. As period pain goes it's different for everyone, mine can be pretty bad some months (especially if I skip a month)

The second you get your period so many new concerns pop up. Especially if you live in a U.S. a state that has really strict laws on abortion, everything surrounding your period is scary. You don’t get your period, you might be pregnant and you only have two weeks to get it aborted if you are. You do get your period, you have to sit all day at school/work in pain planning out when you change your product. Twelve year old me should not have had to start worrying about that but I had to.
Worst part - Periods, men, periods, maybe men, definitely periods, lack of pockets. Best part - The ultimate button of fun, so much choice in clothing, boobs (assuming a sensible size and not back-ache inducing). Yes those are 66% sexual things, but I think beyond the obvious differences we're the same, so it's tough to suggest things that aren't mere gender constructs like makeup or hair length
As a woman I can tell you that breasts aren’t necessarily fun for women. I think they are considered more “fun” for men. For many women they can just be a hassle because they force us to always wear an item of clothing that conceals them. Do you know how many women would love to be able to walk around without a shirt or bra on? And yes, I know men would be fine with that, but society isn’t and see how many men freak out if a woman breastfeeds in public even though that’s really what they are for.

I don't feel comfortable at all that a boy is in a GIRL's locker room. So, I ask the males here if it is okay to have a gay sixth grader in your locker room. Like, for real, I don't feel safe when a male is in a female locker room just because they are gay and don't feel comfortable around boys.
People with genders, what is a gender? Please, I don’t understand, I must know.
Unless I’m actively seeking a sexual relationship with someone, it doesn’t enter my head. Not my business and I’m puzzled why some people are so keen to tell me when it’s entirely irrelevant to our interaction. It’s not like I go to the grocer’s shop and say “Morning! 2 lb of oranges please and I’m heterosexual” 🙂
I would like my son to be more confident with the girls. I don't want him to act like an alpha or pretend he's somebody he's not. Just to feel accepted when he tries to be his best self, because it never worked for me. What should I teach him?
To be nice to EVERYONE nd you will find yourself with friends and don't worry about popularity. Just find a few friends you have things in common with and you will enjoy high school
For my friend she says: what happens in the boys locker room or gym room that most girls will probably not want to know
I don't wear make up myself, but do men actually like when women wear make up???
Makeup done right, yes. Overdone makeup, NO no NO. I don't want your make up to rub off on me when we hug. But a girl without makeup in the morning... ooofh dead gorgeous 😘
Women, why you you need to go to the bathroom with a friend when in a social setting?
Bc I'm scared to go alone idk why it's just how it is. Nice to have someone to talk to but it could also be cuz I'm an introvert. And Ginny Weasley almost died in the bathroom so yk....
Of the ( very ) few women who's bras I have ever removed, only one ever wore a front hook type. As someone who really struggles to scratch itches in the middle of my back, it seems like this would be more convenient, but the vast majority of bras on the market hook in the back. Is there a really significant reason for this, or is it just "tradition"?
Bras have two or three "settings" in their hooks, this is useful for fat days, for when the bra starts to get old and stretched, and also means that the manufacturer doesn't have to make bras with back sizes one centimetre difference, they can make one size that can accommodate three centimetres difference. If you had multiple hooks at the front, it wouldn't work. It's not difficult to do them up at the back, and many people do them up at the front at waist level then turn them round to the back and raise them to chesties height, then wriggle arms into the straps
1: do you guys actually like beards or is it just something you think is cool
2: is your life sad
3?
I'm a female so males how do you guys put up with each other every day? im a middle schooler and i cant put up with the guys who are even my friends
It's not about gender - it's about people and who they are. Some I like, some I can't stand, and that goes for males, females, gender, trans, whatever - one just clicks with some and not others. Partly it's to do with common interest - and in the UK, sport's a pretty common ground. Depending on age and situation, discussing girls too...
Women, I have sOOOOOooooo many questions.
1. Do you accept "trans" women as women, or do you think, "nah"? Can you tell? Have you ever met a trans person? (I have, three times, it's pretty rare in Africa.).
2. Do you find men confusing? If so, happy to explain why we aren't. (Really: we want to do our hobby, have food, sex, and short convos on non-emotion topics. We are primitive). Phrases like "do you think you should" are red capes to bulls. Never ever use that phrase. It implies incompetence.
3. Do you really like marriage and housemaking or is it just a western trope? ("lived happily ever after")
4. On a scale of 1-10 , please rate the following features in a partner: (a) looks, (b) money, (c) humour, (d) "spiritual connection", (e) intelligence, (f) ability to hold a conversation (g) great family (h) car/house quality (i) hobby compatibility? Men mostly believe money (b) is the key to finding a mate. I believe (c), (d), (f) are the most important? Am I right?
5. Do you actually like sex or is it meh? Like, if you have to choose something to do, like say watch a romcom, have a great meal, or have sex, which is top priority? Men are under the impression y'all don't care much for it and that food is top priority.
6. Is it a stereotype or do you really hate action films? Eg. I find James Bond to be barbarically patriarchal and s**t. Do you agree? However, it is true that men despise romcoms. They are awful and predictable.
7. Is it a stereotype or do you really not "get" computer games? I know several exceptions, I'm asking for GENERAL opinions (statistical majorities).
8. If a guy is bi does this make him extremely unattractive or are you ok with it? My impression is women talk left and date right.
A guy I dated told me that a soft "ball tap" could sometimes be more painful than being hit in the balls. Do you find that to be true?
Guys...what are good/cute nicknames for ya'll?
Girls get called sweetie and princess and queen, but I can't think of many that work for guys. Especially if they aren't your boyfriend or husband, but they are still your bestie or crush.
I gave my husband the choice of Cupcake or Porkchop as a nickname. He chose Porkchop. Lol! Of course I was kidding though, we're not the cutesy nickname kind of people.
What's the biggest stereotype you deal with for your gender? (Ik this was for the opposite gender but I feel like everyone can answer this.)
That girls/women are catty with each other, or on the opposite end, that there's a "sisterhood". There are bad and good women. It's not an all or nothing situation.
For the guys, what do you think abt makeup?
it can be cool but most of us dont care, we 100% make fun of oversized lashes though
A guy here,
what's it like to have boobs?
Annoying, mostly. Squishy bags of flesh that get in the way of stuff.
To people with peens - do you ever actually helicopter it or is that an urban myth?
Most of the time, it's us girls that want to see it coz we think it's funny.
Why do guys often spend so long in showers? Women often get the rap but I've known a lot of guys who take 15m plus to shower. I've got an idea and I suspect it has a similar answer to why it takes guys so long to have a c**p...
What's wrong with a long shower? Also not only men do it I do it as well and it is SO relaxing. Sometimes you just need to let the inner kid out and make potions while pretending you are a water-bender
Guy here.
Is it true for ladies that matching underwear is hard to find?
Just out of curiosity because most times I see them sold in pairs (top and bottom) but I've heard complains within earshot that even those don't pair well with what they have (or something similar).
Is there something I'm missing out because as far as I know, those aren't supposed to be seen by anyone else unless intended to?
Just a thought, peace.
I like matching sets, but it can get expensive and it's hard to manage the laundry logistics of things.
why are women more comfortable expressing their emotions and such?
Not all women are comfortable expressing their emotions because they've been taught to act like "little ladies" all their life and to remain "pleasant" in society. The ones who do just don't give a damn. They're past caring what others think.
I always felt that I earned men's respect and that it wasn't automatically given to me because of my gender.
