Me being an ethnic it would have been hard, but I still think it would have been better than today. I would have still been able to have a solid decent paying job, an ugly ethnic wife and kids, potentially future opportunities for higher education and faced less lookism and mistreatment despite being a racial minority.
Assuming I was the same race in the United States, the vast majority of areas were white dominated but I would have most likely lived in an area with more black or hispanic people, due to racial segregation. I would have likely gone to a crappy or okish school but because I had behavioral issues and learning problems, I wouldn't have been given any additional support and would have dropped out even in elementary or middle school.
I would have had similar trouble making friends due to not fitting in but would have found a few people who were shy, ethnic or outcasted for other reasons to be-friend. Because these people would have likely been more severely excluded, I would have formed stronger bonds with them and we might have still been friends.
After dropping out of school, I would have been pressured to find a job, since this was during the great depression era even though my parents likely wouldn't be struggling financially they would still have a lower quality of life. I might have hawked stuff on the street or worked as a wage laborer. This would have been painful, and brutal but my parents would have likely taken care of me, and I might have gotten used to it.
During puberty before my facial features got fucked, I would have gone out with some girl if she showed interest, since the pressure to date and marry was much greater back then. After a few dates, we would have likely gotten engaged and then married, even as my face had gotten substantially uglier she would have stayed with me due to social expectations. I would have been too young to be drafted, so I wouldn't have to worry about the war.
By the time I reached adulthood, the war would have been over and the US would have the greatest economy in the world. After that it would have just been a matter of getting a job in a unionized factory while I would still have low status and been made fun off occasionally, I wouldn't be fired due to my looks and I would have encountered less lookism and more appreciation for my skills and abilities, assuming I became good at the job.
This would have been unironically enough to support my family and possibly 2 or 3 kids, despite the job paying little more than minimum wage. I would have had great health insurance and benefits, including pension which is rare af these days. I would have stuck at this job and maybe even potentially moved up the ranks if I proved myself. With massively lower college tuition, I could have found a way to get an education while working maybe taking on less hours, I would have completed high school through something like the GED and then gone to college or I might have switched to an office job and ended up being trained into a more complex role.
My life would have been interesting but also far more normieish. I would have been able to have a house of my own, have a few adult friends mainly childhood friends, known my neighbors and occasionally attended block parties, been part of a church or some other religious group mainly because it was necessary back then, lived in either the same town or nearby and continued to interact with people I knew from childhood. I would have experienced true friendship, marriage, having kids, being treated normally as an adult, living and working independently and having my own family, while potentially being on better terms with my parents. Life would have been far more enjoyable and I might have integrated into American society.
