Reader Feedback on "I Did It for Science"
My housemate walked upstairs demanding I share with him the reason for my outbursts of laughter- so I read this aloud to him, and insodoing... I laughed so hard that I found myself crying- DUDE! The content was hilarious, but I think that what set me over the edge was you refering to Steve in 3rd person... Heh heh- thanks!

Well, just when I thought I'd read something in Nerve that didn't suck..... I ran through the feedback and "Rev" Jen? left her own feedback? Duh.. how self serving! "I was hanging out on the lower eastside... blah, blah. How 1992! Oh, the article, seen it before. Too girly. It was however funny and easy to read, something I've never seen in Nerve. Now just get over yourself. Don't blow it. You could actually be worth a shit.

So, I rarely look at the feedback because I am extremely sensitive and prone to excessive self-scrutiny. However, I am having a boring Saturday night, so I thought, why not, and it's really great! And as for GS, who was so horrified that I might deign to use the men's room...I was hanging out on the Lower East Side where all of the bathrooms are unisex! I'm also taking Jennifer Anniston in drag as a huge compliment...

Jenn, I was enchanted by your slide into masculinity, even if it was mediated through outrageous contrived stereotypes. There may be a few who criticize you, presuming that you illegimately used the men's room, but to them I say "pah." I think those confident of their masculinity will find imitation the sincerest form of flattery. We appreciate the note of sympathy and the initial challange of approaching a women. Now I understand more fully the male mystique as well as why women are so amused whenever men wear women's clothes. Thanks.

what a prude parade in here! very entertaining. i think its fair to say that roughly 97% of men would welcome women in the men's room.

G - Have you seen any other article or photo spread in Nerve? A smarmy east-coast New Yorker writer getting snide as he "mixes" with fur-trappers? Transvestites getting lewdish on a public beach? If you are looking for responsible, respectful behavior, man, are you on the wrong site.

"K" The reason the gender of people in a bathroom matters ("As far as the privacy goes, if a man will pee in front of another person, what does it matter what gender said person is? If you're peeing in a urinal your expectation for privacy is low.") is because its expected that anyone who enters the men's room is, in fact, male. If a man wants to pee in front of a woman then that is his choice And if he doesnt want to pee in front of a woman that is his choice too, not yours, Or rev jens or diane toors. I also think its worth pointing out that in most localitys its illegal for a person of one gender to enter the restroom of the other gender.

"GS" I'd lightened about the "science" bit, surely you gathered that none of IDIFS columns are scientific, under Rev. Jen or otherwise. As far as the privacy goes, if a man will pee in front of another person, what does it matter what gender said person is? If you're peeing in a urinal your expectation for privacy is low. That said, best experiment in awhile, funny and great pics, though I agree that "What I learned" was lacking.

I loved this latest installment of "I Did It for Science". I always enjoy it, but I laughed aloud at numerous points in this particular article. Rev Jen makes a truly hilarious and charming dude.

This "Rev." Jen is clearly a depraved individual. I have no problem with people who chose to live life as a gender other then the one they were born as; but for this woman to spend one day as a man, and then pretend she is doing it for some legitimate, scientific purpose is, well, pathetic. She clearly did it because it excites her, most likely in a sexual fashion. And worse, she did it with impunity; with total disregard for the men whose privacy she clearly intended to violate by trespassing in their bathroom (as evidenced by her "men's room etiquette" dialog). Further more she and this Diane Toor seem to be of the opinion that men's privacy is expendable and that they, as woman, have some inalienable right to violate it at will because they are having some kind of "life experience". They need to learn to respect other peoples right to privacy, and realize that the world isn't their playground, to use as they please. These woman deserve to be held accountable for their actions. Nerve.com's acceptance and encouragement of this behavior is irresponsible at best. I hope in the future you will choose your "science" topics more wisely.

re: the twinkie -- I would wager your bite was too small. A man eats a twinkie in two bites. As to the rest: more photos! Come one. The mustache looked okay, a little obviously fake, though.

When Drag kings firts came on the scene my best friedn and I dressed up as men to go to a halloween party. No one could tell and I could feel the way the men treated us was very different we had entered the boy circle. Then their was a installation display of twinkies and I accidentaly ate one and one screamed "oh shit he's a chick". Something about how i ate the twinkie gave it away....

Jen, This kind of thing never works. It lacks seriousness. I'm sure the women you met "sniffed" it out. I still think you're hot!! Call me.
