Hmm... interesting... but... what if you were yourself and had gotten
cursed with either form? Hmmm...?

*smiles* nice where you experiment, then detest. *chuckle*

Hmmm...Interesting questions...

One of the biggest problems I could foresee is _identity_.  Like it or not,
people, gender plays a huge role in the way individuals and society act.
A man (myself included) might have a difficult time convincing himself of
his manhood when physical evidence suggests otherwise half the time.
Keep in mind that manhood (and womanhood) is a mental as well as physical
state.  I don't know about you, but I'd probably feel pretty unsure about
my manhood for awhile.

In part 2 of The Circe Project, one of my biggest challenges is putting
myself in Mackie's place...a young man, now faced with having a curse...
who is now forced to question whether or not he is a man.  Fortunately,
he meets someone who likes him...and doesn't mind her...who helps him
come to peace with his girl-form.

As for how I would probably react...I would probably experiment with the
girl-form...see what it's like for the other half to live...angst about my
duality for a few years or so...then would come to a resolution.  That
resolution could be one of several possibilities...living life as a guy,
confident about my manhood and being at peace with my girl-form...living
life as a girl...or being comfortable living as both.  As for which path
I would eventually take...I have no clue.
