If you could be any other race ?

[ForumMember77]

Which one ?

Likewise, which would be your last choice ?

I think I'd be a Chinese Asian.

I'd imagine some South American Amazonian tribes don't have much going for them, so they would probably be a last resort.

How many people are afraid to play this racist game ?

Prefer Vulcan, don't want to be Ferengi.

I'm a Euro-mut and don' have much of an idea of how it all parses out per country.

Sis did some genealogy, and we are way more mixed than we thought. Irish, English, Scottish, Austrian, French and German. We never suspected the French and Austrian background. Sis can't prove it but thinks we had some German ancestors that got their asses kicked by the Romans.

So there might be a little Latin in the mix too, LOL !!!

This isn't a racist game, I'm sure I did a thread just like this when I joined.

But there's too many other questions which need to be asked like

Am I just going to be a random member of this race of people? Or do I get to pick? Do I get to choose my traits and the family I'm born into?
Am I just changing my race starting from now, like I'm 30 years old and white now so do I just get transformed into a 30 year old black guy?
Am I being transformed into this race at this point in history or will it be a random point in history?

If I had to choose another race and be born into a random persons life from that race then I wouldn't choose black incase I end dying in some horrible part of africa or in the cold ghettos of chicago.

If it's not cheating I'd like to be even more white and be born into an icelandic family, the girls are fucking good looking, blonde blue eyed women, and they're ridiculously healthy from all the fish they eat.

Either this or Italian because they're also quite healthy, probably not as good looking in my opinion sometimes but the weather is better in italy so it's worth the sacrifice, that's assuming I'm born in italy, it would actually be a gamble because I could be born into an italian family living in south london in a barbers shop or something.

If you consider both those options to be cheating because they're both kind of white then I'll pick japanese, I might die from a natural disaster and I'll probably have fuck loads of education and homework to put up with but I think the Japanese have quite a good distribution of wealth so it might be less of a gamble then picking other races.

If I get to pick the traits and everything of the racial characteristics I'm picking and I just turn into that now then I'll pick a black guy, Mike Tyson style physique, it would be great to have that athletic prowess while still maintaining my guitar playing abilities that hopefully under this hypothetical situation will remain in my brain.

If I get to pick the traits then I probably wouldn't pick Japanese, I don't see any appeal in looking Japanese even if I do get to pick the traits of which kind of japanese guy I'm goin to look like.

If I get to choose the family I'm born into along with the race I'll pick Arabic, and into an oil tycoon family. I could pick chinese and be even richer, but I'd be happier looking Arabic and being that bit poorer, but hopefully my family wouldn't get all heavy on Islam with me and I'd have a bit of freedom.

I probably wouldn't choose any tribal family from any tribal races around the planet, be a bit crap I think.

The problem with this question is context. If you mean in the United States as currently exists, I don't want to be any other race because discrimination still exists and why suffer it if I don't have to? If all races were treated equally, I'd like to be one of those beautiful elegant black women with the knife-like proud faces I see in National Geographic from time to time. White woman is as bad as it gets for showing age early. I have a smiley round white woman face.

But that's just physical context. If you include culture context, I like to be the African woman provided I was an educated class British adoptee with U.S./UK citizenship.

I don't think any race will give me intelligence or physical advantages beyond not sunburning so easily.

I have really wanted the genealogy to show we are illegitimately descended from the English royal family, but so far nothing like that has turned up. it would make my mom (RHS) crazy.

We might be VERY distantly related to Greg Allmon and Chaz Bono. Not quite what I had in mind.

I"m quite happy to be a white man with an enormous cock, thank you very much.

[Exian]

I don't see race, because I'm color blind. People tell me I'm white and I believe them, because I'm ripping off a Colbert joke.

[Whateverist]

I'd like to be a marathon.

[Anomalocaris]

I want to be of the race of immortal cyborgs.
