So, if we switched brains then, I'd have a damn good chance right?
Time to get to work on brain transplanting techniques.

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure I'd become a gay guy, but then, you never know. I'd just hope I was in a reasonably attractive body...

Edited to add, I just realized the numerous levels on which you could interpret that statement

Regardless of my own gender, I can't imagine myself being attracted to men. My brain just isn't wired that way, I guess.

Tapdancing Jesus,

Your porn collection sounds a lot like mine!

In Steel Beach by John Varley, the main character does what this poll is asking. About 1/3 of the way into the book he decides to get switched into a female body. She however, is now attracted to men (although she was born female, he preferred women).

But, I think that I would still prefer women in a female body.
