If I was told that I’d come back to earth to be reincarnated as another human being with choices. I would like the following;
To be a woman. To be non-binary, still. To still remain a ‘gray world resident’. To retain my ability to not cave to FOMO and be resourceful. There’s a hundred of other things but in terms of core ones, those are the few.
Apologies for the lack of knowledge, but I thought enbies weren’t “men” or “women”, but sometimes presented more as one than the other. Does the phrase “NB woman” actually make sense?
I don’t really know many other rainbow flag people irl, so I don’t have much of a window into it.
So is it like “leaning more to one side”, or what does that mean?
Honest question, trying to learn.
As far as the thread’s question… I don’t know.
I don’t even know what it would mean to “retain” something. If I am coming back as a different person, keeping anything doesn’t seem to make much sense. Keeping preferences just seems like not fully being a new person.
I mean the combination of all my new facets would be new, but controlling the dice for the re-rolls seems counter productive to the entire concept.
What I can say is that I would choose to retain a lot of knowledge to make school easy. Well it kinda seemed that way this time, but I didn’t mind that. I would also like to keep my non belief in any deities or higher powers, that feels like a bedrock piece of who I am. Also I would still like to enjoy hating conservatives. That’s just important in general.
But as far as keeping things like sex, gender, sexuality, and physical traits, I’d let fate take that.
My gender isn’t really much of a factor to me. I don’t take the agender label, I feel I do have a gender, I’m just more apathetic about it. Maybe that’s kinda NB of me, but I fall in line enough that I don’t really need an extra hashtag. I keep the gender assigned at birth out of convenience, as well as the convenience that gives me of being straight.
But I don’t identify strongly with any gendered trait at all. Unless you count going bald, lol. I mean I(M) don’t own any dresses or anything. But that’s more because I’m ugly enough to not want to attract attention, which feminine clothes seem to all do. My entire wardrobe is almost identical, but my shirts/shorts are all different solid colors. I’m a cartoon character, fashion-wise.
