Being able to pee standing up just about anywhere!

Affirmative action - ie. getting employed not on the basis of merit, but rather for being a female.

Women's only health clubs, while men's are banned by federal law

Receiving custody of child in the event of a divorce 90% of the time

The fact that simply speaking back loudly at a female is legally defined as 'abuse' in many states - thus, with mandatory arrest laws, a man will be put behind bars, effectively losing his job, home and family.

The fact that they can get away with thousands of false rape accusations

Being 20x less likely to receive the death penalty for the same crime

Being 66% more likely to receive probation for the same crime

Not being drafted

Having tons and tons of money being funded into women's health (14x in breast cancer than prostate cancer, despite killing the same amount roughly)

Social security: Men pay much more into it but only receive six years of retirement benefits on average, while women receive fourteen.

If a woman commits a crime, the media will try to figure out what drove the man to make her do it, and then receives counselling - while, conversely, a man would just go striaght to jail normally

Lots of women's shelters, but virtually none for men

Almost never portrayed as a stupid, lazy and incompetent wife, and is never subjected to physical assault (such as being hit in the genitals) by the husband, while it's okay to portray men in the aforesaid attributes, while portraying groin-kicking as comedy

Ratifying a sexist, bigoted law to protect only women-- the Violence Against Women act

Can legally obligate a man to pay child support for a child that isn't biologically his.

Can force the man to not have any visitation

Alll the reproductive rights: Abortion, abandonment, adoption, etc. While men have none.

Men live five to six years less than women on average, and now scientists say its because of testosterone.

We have absolutely no say as to whether our child is aborted. We have zero parental rights until the woman decides to give birth.

If we cry, we are unmanly.

Men have a tremendously high rate of suicide compared to women.

The vast majority of violence outside the home is committed by men, against men.

Women look at us suspiciously on isolated streets, as if we might hurt them.

We are restricted as to what we wear when we have to dress up -- it's pretty much a suit, and that's it.

It is not socially acceptable for us to take ourselves out of the job market for years on end to raise our children, no matter how much we'd love to. Women can be out of the market for 10 years and come back with no questions asked; if we did that, we'd be unemployable because of the stigma against men not working.

Women in their 20s make more money than we do in the large urban areas.

Most domestic violence claims are blamed on the man even if he didn't start it or inflict any harm whatsoever on the woman -- he is typically escorted from the home he likely paid for in handcuffs while his children watch from windows.

Each and every day, most of us have to scrape our faces with a razor blade or else we look unpresentable.

Child custody cases are stacked against the male, and often men pay a tremendous amount of money for the child's care -- and the ex-wife benefits from it by buying the child luxuries that she also enjoys.

Women can make false rape claims and destroy a man, likely with no punishment to her.

Standing up to pee. Benefit of not having to worry about the washing or Ironing Or Dusting around the home, Not caring if the bed was made or not. Can survive on pizza and can's of baked beans. Obviously higher rate of pay (that sucks). Can hug their newborn baby that just came out of a slot machine, without any aftermath. Immediate attention when entering a Video/TV store. Cheap alcohol. Beer is cheaper than wine. Hair cut, It Costs me $65.00, Costs him $20.00. Speaking of hair on head. He can go grey and it is Sophisticated, I would just look old. And. Hair is acceptable on male legs, not on mine Costs. $45.00 to wax. Need I go on. :-)

A man’s skull is thicker and stronger than a woman’s. That was not a dig, that's just to say, that men are able to sustain impacts to their skulls a little easier than a woman.

They have the ability to pee without leaving a piss stain on the front of their pants...they don't have to deal with once a month bleeding body parts, and struggle with pregnancy :) I'm not implying they have it better, but at least they don't suffer this s*** :)

No monthlys... less restrictions during the highschool years, people don't think they are weak, and everyone tries to help me, b/c I'm small. More respect. I look like a child to most of the world, and I'm 36! My husband doesn't get carded for anything. He says no and no one questions it. I say no and everyone laughs. I think you get the picture.

Less people question their motives when they reject relationships and childbearing.

In some cases, better pay.

Increased likelihood of being elected for something.

Their hair is easier to maintain.

But there's nothing that would make me want to be a man.

More pay for the same job, less bitchy friends, less fat on their body and i think people take them more seiously.
Although, I love being a woman.

Brad D pretty much spot on. Women have special benefits and special protection under the law that Men don't have.
