it would be a good theory for sexual preferences. We carry over other thoughts, likes and dislikes from previous lives before. It would be the same for sexual preference as well I would assume

I would have to say it does. I haven't lived many lives as a female (can barely remember the ones I have), so it's not like I remember anything specific. It's more like a subtle prodding, but very slight. This body's hormones are far stronger, pushing me without a doubt toward women. So, yes it effects it slightly, but not to an extreme.
So hormones obviously overpower the mind in this body, greatly influencing both our decisions and sexuality. However it's hard to tell if the hormones are developed naturally, or from sexual preference from past lives (since your brain controls hormone productions, you can change your sexual preference at will if you figured out how - or you can just convince yourself that you're bi/gay and if you're serious about it then it will probably happen).
As far as your question - can your consciousness/soul contain a sex...I'm unsure. When you look at males vs. females, they do feel different - however it's usually the memories / experiences that feel different. So I'm leaning more toward preference, not an actual trait. Feel free to argue that

I'm split on that question. I half believe that it is like you said Clodders but also because of that balance between everything that we would have a gender. What if though some species don't really have specific soul genders but energy genders? like some of us have more female energy or male energy that determines which gender our souls are seen/felt as?

it just seems to make a little more sense in my view at this point.

I think my past life genders have detirmined my current life sexuality, but not in the way you might think. I've been pretty much a balance of both genders (or equivalent) through my incarnations, I actually kind of feel like I'm both genders at once, and I'm bisexual. But I think my current life sexuality is caused by my past life sexual balance because my soul chooses what is best for the lesson I wish to learn in this life, and what best fits me. So that I'm in this body, in this life with this sexuality, not necessarily because my spirit has overrun my body's sexuality, but, because I've chosen to be here, and being bi is most compatible with my soul. If that makes any sense what-so-ever.
As to soul gender being like soul species. I'm kind of on the energy side of this question. I don't think my soul has a particular static gender, but the female/male yin/yang energy of my soul has changed over the milenia. In the beginning I was more afeminate, but, now that I've recently had a great deal of male human lives, I've also got a great deal of male energy in my soul (that I tend to hide because I'm female in this life). So that the gender related energy of a soul is not something static, it changes and moves with that soul's experiences in lives.

I feel like that too sometimes, but I definately prefer being female. I am also bi, dunno if my conciousness has anything to do with it, probably does, but I tend to lean towards females more. But obviously there are some exceptions to the male sex.

*nods*I agree with both of you. Even in this life there are a few times where my energy will change to more male feeling, doesn't last long but sometimes happens.

Mine certainly do....
im 26 now, born male. untill the age of 20 i lived in a redneck hick town and modelled that rather well - had to as a survival measure. once i got the slag outa there and was able to start looking into myself, i found a lot of things. for one two of my "kin/past life bases" were female, a third was true hermaphrodite, and as i learned about that, it intregued me - which was added to the fact that gender was always something that, while publicly i was male, inside i... had to question, very quietly. it was something somewhat like shame that kept me quiet, esp with having an old school family and all - untill i realised that there wasnt anythign to be ashamed of, that old school thoughts were the problem not me. now, i havent told them - nor do i intend to - about myself, i am far more comfortable with myself exploring now, both my present and my past.

This IS a tough question, I didn't see it before.
As usual, I'm on the fence about it. I think the majority of my lives have been female, and I definitely feel female, though I don't always look or act like it. I may be a tomboy of sorts, but I know dominantly I'm female, and dominantly I'm heterosexual.
Not sure if they are related, though it feels like it is in my case.

I think past lives do have a strong influence on your current sexual preference. I've always felt nor male nor female, and my main kin, the Draco, don't normally have a gender in particular. Although I tend to prefer women, I swing both ways.

I blame and know most certainly that a crap load of my issues with gender and sex is because of my abuse as child and then my families #*$&(@$& way of dealing with it, growing up in small farming closed minded retirement-ish town and a father that was and is very traditional and 1954. I've always had this sort of fragmented, of two minds on the topic of gender and sex and surely my past and enviroment plays a huge part of the nut job 31yr old I am today.
Coming to terms with the past lives influence plays more a secondary role in my thinking, at least until something or someone proves me other wise. Nothing can really be done with knowing what gender I was in a past life since this one I am female and things are as they are, and what other things I do or feel with my genderless "female" or the over sexed male is just things of the past and but "kinks" in this life.

It's definately affected me. My 2 strongest kin memories have been one of no gender and one that is female. And then my guardian's memories have been male, so I tend to drift more to a female way of thinking.
I have to admit that when my mind goes completely to my Fae's personality... yea only at that point, may I be bi, but otherwise, that's not a thought that ever crosses my mind and my guardian kind of makes a strong impression not to even thinking about guys XD.
When it comes to hormones, I cant think at all when they're at a normal state, it's just... overwhelming, like a completely different thinking that I just cant nor want to adapt to, so through meditation I tend to reduce my hormone levels either psychologically or physically. Which, I'm not too sure about.
Buuut yea... ok end of subject, dun wanna talka bout anything else on a googlable page hehe.

My memories are that I was female, but I seem to have a genderless memory, although I am still working on specifics of that one, which has been getting stronger. When I was recalling those memories, I seemed to go through a period where I didn't think I liked men anymore. I just felt for a while that I was in that life again.
That ended, and then I felt that I had no interest in anyone anymore. When I met my boyfriend, it was strange. Like I had been meant for him all along, and that I had already been with him forever. Like a totally overpowering love, that had memories from something I didn't realize happened attached. He revealed he felt something like that too, and recently said to me, "We'll beat death together. We'll be immortal. If any two people will be immortal and spend a thousand lives together it'll be us." And this came out of nowhere...he doesn't know what made him say it, he says it just felt right...it was strange. Like I became the person I was in my past life, having the same conversation that we have had many times.
So I think that that was carried over in some way and I feel that my past lives have a lot to do with my gender preferences. Almost like, I don't have a gender preference, it's just whoever he becomes in the current life. Hope that made sense ^^
