Anyone else wonder what if they were born the opposite gender? Would we have lived differently or done different things or would some things remain the same? This is hypothetical and about alternate realities.

Testosterone changes the brain wiring, so it is unlikely I would feel or think quiet and same.
Even if I did think the same I would not be very feminine, and I'd have gone to a different school, played different sports, probably done a different mix of subjects, not broken my nose, not torn some muscles, almost certainly done different jobs and had a different career.
Pretty much everything would be different. I can't say if it would be better or worse, I suspect I might have been even less outgoing as going out alone as a woman is more tricky.
Although since men approach women and not vice versa, perhaps there may have been more romantic encounters. Although maybe not successful ones.
In terms of emotions I'd have had the monthly ups and downs but would still have been struggling, not due to autism but my upbringing.
I think there are too many unknowns. I can't really imagine it.
