If given a new life would you choose to be born the same sex that you were? (sh.itjust.works)

Totally makes sense. I mean, it's surely more than that, but that's definitely a frustration.

I'm a woman who's into video games, science stuff, tech things, tabletop roleplaying games (like DnD), etc, among other things. It's not as bad as it used to be, but I definitely wasn't properly welcome.

I was rarely told that I wasn't welcome as a woman, but if, for example, I mention that I've been playing DnD for 10 years, it doesn't exactly feel welcoming to have them try to take my dice to explain them to me.

Men practically never have to put up with that kind of bullshit, as I understand.
