You would still have the same age, gender, personality, skin color, etc. and you would be able to speak at least one local language and would know basic information of the era and place. Your family, social standing, and such would be randomly picked.

    The way your society currently discriminates and segments humans is not universal

      Right?

      We’re going on a tangent here, but I feel like Western progressives, particularly with anglo backgrounds, tend to think the entire world runs by their parameters and always has. There is nothing intrinsic to the current kinds of bigotry in their societies. It’s pretty arbitrary and specific, in fact.

          Especially ancient Africa! Look up Mansa Musa, king of Mali. Carthage too. Zimbabwe. Benin. Egypt too, it’s in Africa.

        Okay, I’m trans. I’ll kill myself if I don’t have estrogen pills. When should I go to?

        We’ve had estrogen medication since the 1930s. Can you expand on your comment and how it relates to my comment
