This is the one I should have written before.

Birthright.

As a word, it has lost much of its luster, its common power, its fundamental importance in our lives.

A birthright is more than just inheritance -- indeed, it speaks directly to the concept of rights, of those things which are inalienable to those born unto it.

But a birthright is still part of one's inheritance, and one inherits based on one's kinship in our American culture.
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
