Would you press it?
will you push the button?

as a completely cis dude, | would press this button immediately, without question. There are a lot of things | would do for money, but shit I’d do this for like 20 bucks… maybe less?

She said with all too much confidence
A DAY!??!?!
I’m going to push it a bunch. What happens if I hit that 1% more than once?
You become the ultimate girl.
Exponentially increasing chest size. You don’t want that level of back pain.

I mean…
I seem to be the minority here, but, while I’d press the button, I wouldn’t mash it or press it a bunch of times, or eagerly press it… because periods. And PMS. And misogyny. But, mostly periods.
I think being a girl has some pretty sucky parts that is guys completely avoid, and for which I’m really grateful. And I think a lot of dudes who fantasize about transitioning sort of skip over, although I guess with no ovaries trans women get to avoid the worst of it. Although they still have to deal with the patriarchy, and that’s pretty shitty.
So, yeah. I’d press it, but with some trepidation.
I’ve heard that some trans women get “phantom periods” after hrt, like the hormonal cycle still happens even if the parts aren’t there.
Cis men have hormonal cycles too, it’s just not accompanied by your body contracting rapidly or you bleeding out of your privates so men get to pretend they don’t have cycles
If you are already a cis woman, does this just reroll your stats?
I’m wondering how literal “girl” is. Like, would I go back to being a little girl? Absolutely not. But would I go back to being like 20? Maybe! There’s some shit I’d like to do differently.
However, I’d wayyyy rather have the cash.
I have a question though:
If I became a girl through the button, the button would then change and give me a 1% chance of becoming a boy. I could just proceed to then press the button again and be myself again and get a bunch of cash
Why would the button change? Its explicitly a girl button
Cause then it wouldn’t be interesting for girls
For girls it’s just free money
Girls become girl² when they hit the button
Wait, we can push it more than twice. I’m smashing on that button until it breaks.
I can easily pay to transition back if the whole girl thing doesn’t work out.
Well, but transitioning back probably wouldn’t give you a functional penis. Idk how the whole schbang works, but I doubt it’s erectile and excitable
I’ll manage. I old enough that sex isn’t top of mind. It would be no different that having prostate cancer whose treatment lead to the same outcome, minus the millions.
oh a clit after t does get erect and is excitable, but it rarely gets big enough to allow for penetration
I assumed the button was supposed to be single use.
Well, in that case, I’d like better odds. What am I supposed to do with a million dollars?
I guess I’d press it anyways. 1% is better than nothing.
A million bucks is a lot of money to transition with! Instant transition or luxury transition, win/win 👍
I’m a straight dude and would press the button in a heartbeat because I don’t see either of those options as problematic (as the meme usually suggests).
Are you sure you wouldn’t have a problem becoming a girl?
So uhhh. On the premise that women can’t slam this thing as many times as they want without consequences so they also stand a risk of a gender swap…
Why would we not just keep pressing the button until we turned back?
Okay but all of that gone, 1 press, these are your chances, fuck yeah. In a fucking second. This isn’t a hard question unless you’re already wealthy.
You can’t just change the rules! Women finally get a win here! Free money with no consequences
Okay okay, I guess we can let you guys have the one win. :)
I’d press it a few times. In the end, I think I’d care way more about never working again for the rest of my life than being a guy.
Same. I’m about halfway done already. What’s another 40 being a bit different? I’d be lucky to have such a varied perspective on life.
It would at least make the last half more interesting because there’d be more learning, unless the button takes away ADHD the dopamine alone makes it worth pressing
I’m pressing it 100 times
Well you got that 1% chance about 4 times by sheer luck I don’t know what to tell you but you’re Supergirl, now. Congrats?
Does that mean I get to be four times as cute :3
No but you have 8 boobs like a cat, enjoy
Can I just get 8 cats instead -_-
Judging by their username, that’s what they want.
I’m fine with my two boobs :3

Button just gives you gender dysphoria
What a terrible button! :'(
So no change at all for our uncracked sisters.
My gf is bi so it’s not like it would matter
Average arch enjoyer
I’d hit it. A mil could solve most of my problems. Becoming a girl would just be one more.
I’d press it as long as I get to keep my parts down there. I’m way more attached to my anatomy than my gender.
This is the definition of a win-win scenario.
