I wonder if I'd make a good boyfriend (either straight or gay) if I was a guy.

I think I'd be mediocre. I'd be too fawning. I'd try too hard all the time, be much too soft and sensitive, and get walked all over. I'd always let her or him win the arguments. I'd just give up and give in too soon and often. I'd frequently and regularly be used. I probably wouldn't like or respect myself as much as the man in a relationship.

For this reason and others, I would not choose to be a man, given the option... even though I still do greatly envy men. I imagine I would have and do have better relationships as a woman.
