Hey cis friends, have you ever fantasized about being a different gender? Any context: sex or cool clothes or whatever, no shame attached.

Some trans folks I've talked to think everyone questions their gender, but the few cis folks I've asked either say no, or only a tiny handful of times.

If none of these choices make sense for you, my DMs are open. (Edit: See also the secondary poll below, which has more options.)

Trans friends, please sit this one out, but please do boost for reach.

Follow-up (supplementary) poll, because now I'm feeling like my choices were a touch too presumptive: Same question, same audience, but maybe I missed the range I should have aimed for.

How often do you, as a cis person, fantasize about being a different gender?

@taedryn I'd wish for even more nuanced options when answering. I wished to be a different gender when I was a kid, so I answered "an handful of times" - does that count? Since puberty I've been quite happy with my assigned gender and I know a bunch of people who have similar experiences.

@taedryn judging from other replies it seems that another important question would be "why would you wish to be a different gender?", because especially women would often like to have the freedoms men enjoy without actually *wanting* to be a man. Lot's of different shades and motivations it seems to me.
