The **Electric\_Warrior** post got me wondering. Starting, you know, with “Oh gee, I haven’t properly upended the world of bisexuals, what can I do to them?” But then I got to wondering: Those of you who are bisexual, if I ask you to think not about the different desirable characteristics of the two sexes but about your own response to that, do you find that your lust / interest / romantic side / etc is the same, within you, responding to either sex? (As opposed to one sex being sexy to you — when they are — in one way and other sex being sexy to you — when they are — in a different way)? I suppose if each individual person sort of brings out a different response regardless of sex this may be difficult to answer, but if the question makes sense to you I’d be interested in the answer. And then I know how to properly “invert” you for purposes of this thread: If you’re bisexual, your own sex switches of course, but now I’ll also invert the way you respond to the two sexes so the “side” of you that was erotically responsive to one sex is now keyed to the other & vice versa. If that sounds playable, go for it! ---

> [@Anaamika](#): > > I want to _fuck_. As in, I love being a woman and love most things about it, but I want to know what it’s like to give, to be the one doing the pounding, etc. FTR, I’ve never tried one, but I am aware strap-ons exist. But it just doesn’t seem the same. But I’d want to give it to a woman, definitely, and someone who was as enthusiastic as me. Clean up the language a little, missy, and I’m with you. Being a guy doesn’t really seem like all that much fun, but I’m curious what bonage feels like for them. > [@CalMeacham](#): > > And, as I’ve said before, I’m curious to see how easy it would be her _her_ to find (and properly stimulate)the clitoris when it’s not attached to her. It’s that big pink thing staring you in the face. > [@Chessic\_Sense](#): > > Non-sexually, I want to know what a period is like. I’d like to know if it lives up to the hype or if it’s just like really bad cramps. Then I’d know if I should really be sympathetic or just brush off complaints as simple whining. I’ll field this one. It feels like your insides have jackknife tearing them apart, and the only escape for the bleeding is through the slit in your panties. Actually, to be honest, my cramps have gotten significantly more tolerable through the years. At one point, though, the pain was almost crippling. ---

Yes. Not schlong-sized, of course, but when a woman is aroused, it should swell and the pink lump should be pretty visible. ---

I think our standards of “big” differ. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/yet-another-if-you-were-the-opposite-sex-for-awhile/552190.md?page=2)
