Woah. I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around that concept.
You probably know your birthdate and birthplace because other people who know it told you, and because of documents that have it written on them. What if you never had either of those sources to give you the information, though? Heck, I didn't even have a name until I decided on one in my late teens.
I
do know my birth
day, though: January 15th. And April 28th. And May 23rd. When I was first introduced to the wonders of Filling In Paperwork, I was extremely casual and just put down whatever date came to mind. By the time I realised that all of those forms were being kept permanently and forming the official picture of who I am, I already had multiple dates in the system.

The appeal of those is very egalitarian, crossing all boundaries of age, race, gender, and social station. A veritable symbol of the American Dream.
