You must pick a point in human history before the 1950s to be spend the rest of your life in. What era and place would you choose?

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.

as a queer brown man; i don't want to be anywhere at all.

why 1949 and where?

You would have been just fine in, say, North or East Africa a few hundred years ago.

I think they picked 49 because it's as modern as they could get within OP's parameters.
