What would you be if you had a choice?
 

Now this is not an insecurity question, its just something to ponder.

Male or Female?
big or small?
Blue eyes or brown?

Now to get even more interesting answers, lets say you can choose abilities.
Could you fly, walk threw walls, read minds, etc...

I just want to see how creative we could be.

My blood can already cure everything so I think I'm just fine being me ...

I would be a tall, muscular male with genius-level intellect and quick wit.


But I do enjoy working with what I've been given.

Female, small, blue eyes.

At least two of those I already have. I'd also like to be taller than I am, and maybe have slightly larger breasts (only slightly). Oh and 20/20 vision.

Abilities I'd like to have (some also already have but would like to keep!): singing, creativity, strength, natural propensity for sport, completely healthy from top to bottom, social skills, be a fantastic dancer, be able to write poetry, be generally a positive, active person.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with what I've got.

I would like to be perfectly round
and possibly bouncy.

I'd like to try out lots of different selves, but I'd like to be able at will to come "home" to my current one.

I'd like to be 6'2, male, with very thick, wavy black hair, pale and green- or grey-eyed, athletic, with a very full tenor/baritone voice, excellent eyesight, and a propensity for a very high metabolism.

I'd love to have perfect recall, the ability to learn skills (like playing musical instruments, carving, pottery, etc.) very quickly, the ability to learn languages virtually instantly, and an incredibly finely trained associational synthesis ability (i.e., the ability to put facts or observed data together to find patterns, meanings, and solutions).

I would also love to have an instinctive ability to learn physical skills (like martial arts) almost instantly, and even on sight (i.e., I see it, I can do it).

i am so good with the way i am right now...

Honestly, I'm kinda okay with who I am. I'd like genitals, though.

I'm working on fortifying the contents of my head. Learning is fun!

That trumps any physical feature aside from shapely breasts (apparently).

Well I guess I didn't even answer my own thread. Well I am pretty content on the way I am. I would like to loose some weight from my last 2 pregnancies. But weight is something I can deal with. Well I guess hair is the main thing I would like to change. I have very thin hair due to chemotherapy as a child. So I would like really thick hair.

And when it comes to abilities I would like to fly. Just so I can get over my fear of heights and see the world.

i would be a few inches taller, a whole bunch smarter, waaaaaay better looking, and if we get to choose superpowers, i would like the ability to never need sleep and never get sick or injured.

^^ It's overglorified ... the sleep, injury, sick thing.

I thought this thread was covering a similar topic of dream job/profession/vocation kind of thing, at which point I would have thrown my hat in the ring for Emperor of the World. But if we're talking looks, talents, and superpowers, then I guess I'm fine with what I have, though being able to fly would be pretty cool.

i prefer to be female; tall, sexy and gorgeous! =)

Physically, I'd like to be a little taller and have a smaller nose. I'd like to be a little less intense/emotional. But these things are what makes me me, so I'm pretty happy with the way I am.

I want 4 legs, 4 arms, working wings, and a prehensile tail. Now that I have flight my next super power would be mind control.

All hail your new overlord!

Seriously though, I'd take those things in a heart beat, wouldn't mind looking like a freak if I could fly.

i.am.perfect

id stay as i am

I'd stay physically who I am now.

Cool ability: I wouldn't say or build compositions that contain that symbol that follows "D" in our Roman writing construct.

I like, personallity wise, who I am now.

Physically, I'd like to be a foot taller, weight 35 more pounds (of muscle of course), not balding at 27 and slightly smaller ears.

I'd be good with that, but you know I'd be down controlling the 4 elements of nature at will. Ninja skills would be a plus too. Also singing, for karaoke reasons.

Interesting question.

I'd like eidetic memory, highly advanced problem solving and deductive reasoning facilities, laser-like concentration for extended periods of time, and the ability to instantly be at perfect calm, mentally speaking. It'd also be nice to be better at picking up and learning different languages—speaking, hearing, reading and writing.

The nice thing is that most of these are features which can be attained through hard work, so they're not so fantastic.
