Men think their penises are very important because they get so much sensory information from them, but women don't have penises and don't see the need to have one personally.
Freud's ideas came from his tendency to see everything in sexual terms and from women's position in his time -- essentially the property of a man with no rights. Women envied men's power and he confused powers granted by society with male sexual potency. So the short answer to your question is "Of course not!"

I truly feel for you. That's the thing, you can't forget his ex-girlfriend because the only reason why you're with him is because you want to get back at her. She doesn't care; in fact, if you see it in a certain light, if they left her for you, then they aren't really the right person for her; you're doing her a favor. She realizes this and isn't hurt by your petty attempts to make her envious of you, as you are so envious of her. You're neurotic and a text-book case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and as you stated in a previous post, your mother had the same symptoms that you show. I recommend seeing a psychiatrist if you truly want any change to happen. And remember that envy is a sin: we should never envy anybody because we all have our own spiritual path and we are all seeking the same thing: happiness and we can't be happy in an unhappy world: we must contribute to world's happiness if we want to be happy.

Nope as far as I am concerned a penis is totally overrated. Why have a rifle when a pistol does the trick. Pants never fit properly and I can have multiple orgasms. I would say the envy should be on the part of the man. Not to mention I can give birth to a child. I would never trade any of my parts for that external genitalia that could pat for a cat toy that you call a penis.

Some times I wish I could pee standing up because squating in the woods really sucks, or holding it until you find a potty.. I live in Alaska so peeing outside is not really looked down upon unless ur in the city, which has a lot of huge trees to go behind on drunk nights...
But envy you? Ha! nope, cause my wetness tastes better than a mans wetness anyday! plus when we sweat, it smell sweet, not salty, haha...

Why is it that so many men in this Women's Studies section seem to think women want penises? I'd kill that messed-up Freud if he wasn't already dead. THE VAST MAJORITY OF WOMEN WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE A PENIS. Get it into your heads! Why the hell would they, for any reason other than being able to pee standing up? Many women don't even like the look of them. I, for one, would be very disturbed if I woke up one morning and found I suddenly had a penis.

If you actually knew anything about Freudian theory (which is where the term comes from) you would never ask this because you would know how ignorant it would make you sound. But, to answer your question: No.

Not really, I'm pretty proud of my vagina. But, I do envy that men can pee in the woods and I can't.

Do you envy women because we get to carry children?
