Researching what people would select and why. Does gender make a difference. Would you use your super power for good or evil?

I would have the ability to read minds. This would be the best because if you had an evil villain that wanted to kill you, you would always know how and when they were going to do it and thwart them. It would also be beneficial in criminal cases, such as convictions or searches.
Another beneficial one would be to freeze time, and this would be helpful in situations like 9/11 or things where a lot of stuff is happening and there aren't enough people to help.
Gender does make a difference. A lot of guys would probably choose things to look at women or be a lot stronger, and women are the more curios, nosy type.
My super powers would be for good, and a lot of things to help myself, like finding out if people are lying.

Shapeshifting.
Other things that I've thought about, such as flying, and communicating with animals, would also be subsumed a little under this.
And yes, I believe I would use it for good, but not in a way that would involve constantly doing battle with the forces of evil. It's kind of frustrating that you see all these superheroes in the comics, and they have all these wonderful abilities, and not one of them can think of anything more imaginative to do than beat people up.
And sometimes, I guess I'd just use it for fun. Man, wouldn't it be great to be able to turn into a falcon and just go off flying because you can...

I would like to have the ability to always have correct change. Need a malt from Mickey D's? bango, correct change. Need a Porsche - bango, right to the penny... whatever I needed, wanted, could think of - I would be able to get it on the spot, because I would always have exactly what it cost, right with me. Want to buy a pro football team - presto - $456,000,000 right on the spot. Need money for cancer research, heart disease, diabetes... here you go... tens or twenties - a couple hundred mill - there you go... can I get a receipt for that?
And I would so use it for good in so many ways...

That depends. If there were others that had powers, I would choose the power to nullify their powers at will. If there were no other people with powers, I would choose to be able to read other's minds.
Good and evil wouldn't enter into my decision making process, I'd just do whatever the hell I wanted. =D

I would love to be able to read people's minds and have force fields. Knowing when people are lieing to me and when they are telling the truth would be amazing, because there are so many fake people out there. It is rather annoying.
As a fun power though, i would like to have the ability to go through walls and things. This would be amazing because then I could drive to wherever i wanted and drive a straight line. I would make the car be able to go through things and that would just scare people a lot and that would be so much fun. Just blowin through stores and office buildings and people's homes. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME

I would choose to be able to freeze time. This seems to be the most beneficial super power one could have. Everything would go your way, and no one would be any the wiser.
Gender does not matter.
I would use my power for the greater good, but first and foremost I would help myself, then everyone else.
Man that would be great!

I already have a single Super Power. God. And I use that power for good.

Invisibility, because I could go places I normally wouldn't be allowed in. Like, I could finally see what's behind all those "employees only" doors. Or, sneak into people's houses and look around. Don't know if that's evil or just nosy.

The ability to move through space and time at will. I would not use the power for evil.

I would like to read people's mind. That way life would be easier. Of course I would use my super power for good.
