  I find it interesting that most posters, when imaging being born the opposite sex, don't imagine themselves as being different than they are now. In other words, they percieve their own present personality unchanged in the opposite sex form. I think this is an indication of how difficult or even impossible it is for us to imagine being something other than what we are. It's also interesting how much we define ourselves based on gender.

  Unless someone with a black square starts defining themselves with a pink square.......

  yeah, the pink thing is throwing me off. Also, I was amused at how fast the topic descended from the initial question to potty stories! So, on a train in China almost 20 years ago, my friends and I went to find the toilet. There are loads of toilets in China, at the time they were universally stinky and dirty. However, we found out the toilet in the train was a small room with a hole in the floor through which you could see the railroad tracks. While in the station large piles of poop formed under the train. When the train was moving...well, just imagine trying to squat and use a hole in the floor while the train is rocking and speeding along the tracks. Also no handles or bars of any sort to hang on to. So of course most people missed the hole while trying to use it and not fall over into it!
