God isn't a character, person or entity. Gender or gender neutrality does not apply.

Heard that theory so many times before. What evidence is there to suggest that I signed up for this nonsense?

There is no evidence. If the notion doesn't appeal to your reason then it's simply not for you and you will need to look for understanding elsewhere.

Unless my pre-birth version was some kind of a masochistic maniac, I'm pretty sure that there aren't any 'plans' for me whatsoever. The only reason why I'm here is because a couple in love weren't satisfied with each other and thought having a brat would fill the emptiness in their life. Well, I've outlived my usefulness and now I'm stuck here against my will.

I am beginning to understand your situation a little better and on a personal level I'm very sorry where life left you. I will not offend you by claiming that was your pre-birth plan. Elsewhere I have two members who both tell a similar story.
I've been with them for several years and I hope it gives you some hope for yourself when I tell you they have weathered similar storms that were their lives for many years. I sincerely hope you'll do the same. For them study, discussion or debate about spiritual/afterlife issues is much less important than just finding a way to cope with their problems and I've encouraged them along that path while they kept just a little in touch with the issues that first brought us together.
Now I know a little more about you I will draw back because otherwise it might seem I'm lecturing you or trying to tell you how to think and I'm not doing either.
I apologise if anything I've said came over that way or has upset you.
