I want to leave my gender behind when I die. Im scared I won't be able to. Are you genderless or can you be in the afterlife?

I don't believe souls have a 'gender'. Gender is a social concept about how someone born with different parts should act. I believe when you die you won't have a gender.

Pretty sure we are genderless in heaven. We have no body, so no need for gender.

I'm not even sure that there will be an "I" to have a body or gender in any afterlife. And, being honest, though I wouldn't want to offend anyone's faith or belief, I doubt that anyone can definitively prove any personal identity remains.
Just my own take.

I believe shape and form in the afterlife are completely changeable at will because they are only representations of your current mental state in those experiences you are living through

I don't think so really, but it's comforting to think I can appear how I want after death.

What does that mean
It means he thinks bodies determine gender but that doesnt even make sense here bc you wouldn't have a body.

Okay so I'm going to answer based on NDEs: I think that people identify with themselves for a short time in the afterlife before moving on to the next life OR they stay in the afterlife for some time and explore pocket dimensions. However, I do not think that one needs to look the way they looked on Earth if that is what you mean.

"For in heaven they neither marry nor are given in marriage." Straight from the bro's own mouth.

In the sense that there is probably no afterlife, sure you can leave your gender behind when you die. Once it's over, nothing is going to matter.

I assume if souls existed, they would transcend biological boundaries such as those of genetics since they are only tangible in life as they are built from entirely physical substances.

If there is one (🤔🤷‍♂️), yes, I hope for genderlessness! ("Being of either gender is a drag")
