There is a huge lack of genderbenders out there so I see the need for a recomendations list. Both anime and manga is needed, just be sure to note the media.

There are some in the relations list but it's far from enough imo so let's unite and share what we know. Tell us about series preferable not on the list, but if you need to praise one of those feel free to do so.

I'll start with 2 obvious ones missing on the list
Tenshi na konnamaiki

and Kashimashi.

How about Simoun (it's anime)?
http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=879

Everyone starts female, then picks a gender later on, as a teen. And even the guys look really girly for a while. Especially Wapourif, who has big breasts. http://myanimelist.net/character.php?id=3258

Not to mention that all the voice talents are female...

Manga wise, you can look at my anime list, there's a lot.

Major ones I would reccomend are Akane-Chan Overdrive!, Artificial Maiden, Futaba-Kun Change!, My Barbaric Girlfriend, and Ichinensei ni Nacchattara.

http://myanimelist.net/mangalist/darkwarzx ~ A library of Gender benders (not crossdressing) that will keep you busy for a while.
92% of teens have moved onto rap. If you're part of the 8% who listens to real music copy/paste this into your sig.

An epic genderbending anime/manga!

Princess Princess
http://myanimelist.net/anime/907/Princess_Princess

It's about three guys who study in a boys' school, and they must crossdress "for the sake of students' health" XD
It's pretty funny, and the manga is LOVELY *-*

a new manga one is Otome no Iroha!
http://myanimelist.net/manga.php?id=12188

It's about a boyish girl and her sissy brother, and their genders get "adjusted" to suit their personalities, so they can continue the family line.

Futaba-kun change is pretty awesome, it's been licenced in USA by IronCat, but they're out of business so the vols are a little hard to find.

Or mangaupdates.com has a gender-bending category too:

Hey, I'm actually looking for a specific manga/anime rather than adding one. A year or two back I was casually flipping through manga at a local bookstore and came across this manga about a brother and sister who swap genders at night. I didn't have time to read it all, I set it down and the next day couldn't find it again. It seemed pretty standard, boy is meek and girl is aggressive. I want to say it starts with a female friend of theirs spending the night. any help finding it again would be much appreciated! ^_^

I've recently watched Kashimashi. That was a good series, but really serious towards the end. As a bloke, embarrasing as it is, brought some tears to the eyes. Haven't had that from much stuff I've ever watched! Powerful little love story there!

Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru - Watched that recently too. Similar to princess princess, which I watched (actually randomly came across that, which kinda ingnited my intrest in this genre). Its about a boy who's asked to go to an all girls school. He suceeds and makes many friends. Not too much of a story, but a good watch and the OVA is a funny take on fairy tales with the stories characters.

Princess Princess, is alright, but has a rather serious and gay over all feel too it. I prefer the silly sort of styles, but I still thought it was still a good watch.

But, as another full on gender-bending one, Kampfer is slowly being released weekly, episode 10 or 11 is out now and still going. It is about a guy who wakes up as a "Kampfer", a female who is a "fighting-elite". Its a comedy, and the plots rather thin, but makes up for it in its stupidity. He can transform when needed to, or when forced to, or when he wants (which is rare). All the girls love him and he's an idiot who doesn't realise this. Its finally getting to the so-called 'plot', after much slow paced fannying, but its still rather enjoyable for gender-bending fans or normal anime lovers as it has many mild lesbian scenes (its not a hentai!).

Cant think of anymore off the top of my head...
