Do you ever feel as though you were born in the wrong era? What era/time period would best suit you?
I feel as though I would've been more comfortable sometime before cars were ever invented. Maybe a simple time period where I could've been a traveler or an adventurer. If I were born in the future, then maybe during a great technological age where most computer-related devices are either plastic, paper-thin devices that either project interactive holograms, or have touch-screen. It would be nice if both were combined to make a steampunk-ish era.

I often feel like that. I hate the morals of today. I would choose any where between the 50s to 70s. A devoted housewife or hippie.

I think you should take part in the technological age we're currently in and get us towards your dreams!

I'm sure whatever era I would have been born in, I would think it would be better to have been born in another one. But I do feel I would have been better suited to a different one than this.. glad I'm not any younger though, that's for sure. :)

I feel like had I been around in the 60s I'd have fit in a lot better. However, they didn't really care for a strong willed woman...
I changed my mind I'd rather live through the 80s and be a punk. I would have been a goddess then.Like (2)

I'm just glad I wasn't born in the slavery/good ol' days. Those times have an entirely different meaning for black people.

For me, I wish I could have been around in the '70s. I love watching those old blaxploitation movies from the '70s like "Dolemite" "The Mack" Foxy Brown" "Cleopatra Jones." How they talked, dressed, the cars, everything just seemed so much cooler. I wish I could have been around to experience that.

Most likely some future where new frontiers are open for true exploration. The current stage of our development as a species could best be described as our early childhood. We have only begun to peek outside of the crib into the universe at large.

Mid-to-late 19th Century, and not in my native country.

Not really any era. I like plenty of things in this era, but I hate plenty of things too. I like plenty of things in the 1600-1800s but hate plenty of things too. So...I dunno.

I think I would have made a great 50's housewife, or 60's free spirit.
