When you die, you won't be a man any longer. In fact, much of your constituent matter wasn't and won't be human for the duration of the universe.

So why care about being a man or any particular thing at all? Experience the universe in its rich fullness while you're still able. You're already dead in the limit [1]. Nobody's left to judge you.

([1] You can also use this perspective to shut down your experiences prematurely, but pro tip: don't. That's a minimization of potential.)
