What role of your opposite gender, if you decide on getting a sex change, do you DESPERATELY want to play?

This is separate from the "Which Broadway Musical would You like to perform in and as what Character?" thread and written specifically for those who want to play a role of the opposite gender.

I'm a guy, so I really want to play Glinda if I get a sex change.

I have trouble with that type of commitment, so I pick Hedwig.

I'm a guy, too, by the way.

I'm a guy too and I would want to play Mrs. Lovett from the original Sweeney, or Kate McGowen from Titanic.

I'd need a race change, too, but I really want to play Deena Jones in Dreamgirls.

A lot of licensing companies do.

I've wanted to play Joseph (you know, the one with the Dreamcoat) since I first saw the show a million years ago.

I've also developed this dire need to play Mark in Rent.
