Again, I believe that adaptability is one of man's strongest abilities. Almost everything about us adapts to our physical and psychological circumstances. This is why people in various climates adapt to their surroundings, whereas foreigners struggle.
These changes are more than just psychological; they are also physiological. Years of exposure to cold or hot temperatures causes the body to adapt in incredible ways.
The human body is designed to adapt, as is the mind, and when the body adapts, the mind follows suit. Organs, cells, and tissue within the body also adapt, allowing people and individuals to function in situations where they would not otherwise be able to.
The world is a strange place, and people live the lives they are given; no one is born knowing their gender, identity, personality, health status, appearance, or family background, but we tend to adapt to these differences.
The reason for this adaptability is that we accept the unchangeability of the situation in which we find ourselves.
A person who is not as tall, or perhaps a dwarf, finds ways to accept what or who they are, and most of the time finds ways to accept themselves, before constructing a unique set of circumstances that allows them to comfortably live the lives they have been given.
Do people sometimes hate what they are?
Yes...
but sometimes these hate is not enough to make them want to give up on life. However, do not confuse acceptance with self-love. The former is mostly understanding that you cannot change who you are and must find ways to live with it; this does not imply "loving you," but rather accepting you.
This is a mental adaptation.
This is where all of the magic happens, because people must be in sync with themselves on the inside before it can be reflected outside.
While people can still choose many aspects of themselves in life, I believe that the most important characteristics are predetermined at birth.
Choose what you want
For example, who would not want to be Donald Trump's son or daughter? 99.9% of individuals will. Why? Well, status, money, financial freedom, fame, power, and many other things, and if people could choose their parents, people who are likely to be poor, unhealthy, and so on would be childless.
This is one of the aspects of life that people have no control over. One of the most significant ways that people have the ability to choose other things in life is through free will.
Free will promotes discovery and evolution, but it also fosters evil ingenuity. To some extent, being free causes people to abuse their power, particularly those with the authority, fame, and financial resources to back up their free will.
Sci-fi reality
Imagine being poor and auditioning to have a child, only to have the children you want decide you are too poor, sick, or ugly to bear them.
Imagine them seeing their potential genetic health conditions and deciding whether or not to be born. Imagine pre-babies having enough consciousness to make decisions before they are even born.
It is next-gen FREE-WILL, and forgive me for going too SCI-FI; perhaps one day we will be able to see movies like this, with a fantastic creator who can combine adventure, supernatural, and science.
Biological logic & explanation
Nobody has a pre-form; we are almost nothing but sperm cells interacting with eggs in reproductive systems to create something unreal that grows to develop consciousness, thoughts, actions, and so on.
Obviously, most of what we think in our minds is a reflection of what is possible or impossible, but we are nothing more than our consciousness. So, no.
Nobody has control over where they are born, the circumstances surrounding their birth, or anything else. In fact, some people will not be born, either because their parents choose not to marry or because of some other reason; will these people be conscious enough to realize this? No. It never existed.
There is no possibility without the consciousness we possess.
So, while we may regret having this life or wish we did not have it, the truth is that we cannot change what we cannot change. I believe that 70% of the world's population does not completely want to be who they are, but because this is unchangeable, people simply accept and build around it.
