Poll: Would you change your sex for 5 million dollars?
- Thread starter x-machina

As tempting as the money is, I don't think it is worth uprooting my entire life. I like my current life. I'm lucky enough to have good friends and family, and do not want any part of that alien's deal.
I guess I'm afraid of change. Who knew?

The alien part wouldn't bother my family so much as the fact that I was once the eldest daughter and am now the eldest son.plugav said:
I guess it would depend on how complete the transformation is. If you just become the opposite gender for all intents and purposes, then sure. 5 million goes a long way.
However, if it is a complete, 100% transformation, then no. As in changes to brain chemistry. Males and females have very different sets of hormones and chemicals, and switching out the "mix" your brain has been using since puberty for an entirely different set seems like it could really mess up your personality.
Like how guys taking estrogen pills or women taking testosterone pills start having personality problems, except the whole nine yards.
Basically, if there was some way to ensure that my brain remains the same with the gender change, then sure. 5 mil is 5 mil.
If not, then heck no. I like who I am, mentally and emotionally. Not going to risk it.

Only if it was a real transformation and not the 'cosmetic' stuff we have now. Honestly, probably wouldn't mind being a guy although it would be weird for a while no doubt. 5 million dollars and a life time without worrying over pregnancy, no periods, no more girl drama...I think I could live with that.x-machina said:
If the sex change was perfectly complete, then yes, in a heartbeat. I'm not a big fan of my body.
If it rewrote my entire body structure and biology to be as if I had been born female....then maybe. But only maybe. I'm quite blessed in almost all ways as it is... Do I get the opposite/equal value sort of blessings in female form? Cuz damn... I'd be awesome.
This just leads to a lot of weird possibilities..... So much awkward...

Dude, I'm pretty much asexual when it comes to my thinking and emotional base as it is so I don't really see how I could change that much.Prosis said:
I'd do it...but it raises the issue that I would not be an attractive girl...though I suppose I could use that 5 million dollars to try and make myself look hot 
The biggest question this raises is that if it changes us biologically, do we become gay or would female me go after men? Also would gay people stay gay or would they go after the same gender they initially were?
It's an interesting question...but yeah, I'd probably do it.

Yeah, same here.Zachary Amaranth said:
Of course, I'll still TAKE 5 million dollars since they're offering, but that's just gravy.
I actually assumed this thread was called "would you Charge your sex for 5 million dollars"
I'd barter with them until we came to the deal where they turn me into a robot.

I have always wondered what it would be like to be a girl. The only question is whether the 5 million would be worth the risk of not being able to turn back if I find it screws my life over too much.
That depends if I could see what I'd look like, I could imagine some twilight zone shit going down and making me look like the elephant women or something. Also would it change your sexual desires? If I was good looking and still interested in women I'd probably do it
