Today I watched an interesting documentary about how the fishes procreates and it showed some particular species of invertebrates who change sex depending of the availability of males or females in the pack. What if this happened to human being? Changing sex as changing clothes. Beside the obvious physical change, there would be also some big mental one. What yesterday liked, or excited, as a man, could leave you numb and not excited at all as female. Then, turning back to make you feel good when you would turn back to male. We're not talking about Ranma½, since, when he turns to female maintains his masculine thinkings. I'm talking about a total change. What if you decide to call you the girl you dated the night before and a man answers the phone?
"Hello, Linda?" "Yes [deep voice], yesterday I was Linda, today I'm Bruno, what the hell you want from me? Do you think I'm gay?".
I think that roles in society could find a literal balancing and possibly a step closer to real meritocracy, since nobody would think "oh yes, she's gorgeous and she obtained her role as head of the office by sleeping with the big boss". That wouldn't be so easy uh? Meritocracy is firstly obstacled by nepotism and recomendations. And that goes beyond the gender.
Beside "male" and "female" works could be really choosed by attitude and not by gender. Someone could be a brickman (and male) during the day time and lovely mother and housewife at night (but WHO would do that?) or simply enjoy playing football and ballett in the same time. Talking about "female and male" jobs sounds somehow obsolete since there are women who successfully took the leading role on important companies and showed the male world that this "division" is something purely invented by men and not "decided" by nature itself.
Everybody knows. If it would have been possible to do what I talked about before, I think men would spend all the time self-caressing boobs while women, well, would scratch down there, where no sunlight shines. I surely would do it.
And you? What do you think about?
[And by the way. The living earthquake came to visit today and, as usual, every time he comes everybody forgets what he had to do and concentrate on him. Plus. I don't understand why my father talks so loud with the kid. He simply doesn't understand what he says (and me neither) and he's not deaf]
Guardavo un documentario sui pesci di scogliera e l'accoppiamento ed hanno mostrato che alcuni invertebrati possono cambiare sesso a seconda delle necessità del branco. Quindi, se ci sono troppi maschi, alcuni di loro diventano femmine per equilibrare la differenza di sessi e garantire la procreazione.
Se fosse possibile anche per gli esseri umani una cosa del genere? Probabilmente avremmo qualche problema di identificazione e di identità. La bella ragazza con cui siamo usciti la sera precedente potrebbe rivelarsi un rude e peloso omone dalle mani sudate per esigenze lavorative. Ecco, il lavoro. Già ora la definizione di lavori maschili e femminili è diventata molto labile (i cinesi insegnano in questo caso), se poi diventa possibile scegliere il proprio sesso in base alle esigenze lavorative allora siamo nella vera fantascienza.
Certo, scenari alla Ranma sono lontani. Anche perchè quando cambia sesso rimane uomo nella testa. Qui parlo di cambiamento completo. Mentale. Spirituale. Per un pò. E poi si torna indietro. Al sesso originale. Se ce n'è stato uno. Certo, so che ogni uomo passerebbe tutto il suo tempo "massaggiandosi" le rotondità invece di pensare a fare qualcosa di intelligente. Come sospetto ogni donna non riuscirebbe a togliere le mani da "lì". Io, perlomeno, farei così.
meh, i think we cause enough trouble without being able to change gender on a whim lol
@BranmacFeabhail - yeah, I just wanted to imagine what could happen in that case..I always like to do it (what would happen if...)....actually I'd like to reprise this post, since is a bit disappointing on the argumentation's side..
