i really think this is part of some conspiracy to undermine transgenderism.

there are definite male/female behavioural traits. no such thing for race, missy. get the fuck over it, and enjoy being white (which is a boon in the USA and only a fool denies it)

Who actually reads The Daily Fail for news?...:dead-1:

So here's a perspective....
If people can identify as transgender, why can't people identify as transrace?

And for the record, I am Black....

it's bullshit and a weird comparison.

gender is biological, race isn't to the degree she is saying. there is no black personality or character nor white personality or character.

and please, no-one say acting ghetto and bro-code. that's cultural, little else, not genetic. that's like saying wearing saris in India or celebrating Oktoberfest in Germany are genetic.

I don't go for that transrace shit. Bunch of people seeking attention trying to be unique. Race mental and although it's just an invented concept, it is based strictly on physical/genetics. Not even gonna read that trash. People want to be black to be cool. They don't actually want to experience being black. Like Paul Mooney said, "everyone wanna be a nigga til it's time to be a nigga".

Race is biological - ethnicity isn't.
If we accept biological women as transgender men, then why can't we accept biologically White people as Black?

Heck, we Black people like to use the term "Oreo" for people that don't fit the Black ethnic stereotype.

As someone who has dealt with that "oreo" shit because of how I act, I hate that term. It was always non blacks, usually white, that called me an oreo.

From what I've seen,
Mostly Blacks use the term to describe other Blacks that "talk White", "can't dance", "don't dress Black", or like things like listening to heavy metal music

Addition to my previous post sinc eI took too long to edit:

As someone who has dealt with that "oreo" shit because of how I act, I hate that term. It was always non blacks, usually white, that called me an oreo. That's just m experience. I know blacks who were called oreo by other blacks growing up and a lot of that is due to social conditioning.

Historically, we've have had less access to things from housing to education. Generations of this will give rise to a culture where the language is different, sub cultures(black culture) is created and many identify with it since it came from mostly oppression, that displaying your educated side is seen as unusual by some of us and by a lot of those who aren't us. People think we all have to like rap and talk like rappers and some of us believe that and basically say "fine, this is our lane. this is blackness." Kind of a self hate thing with some.

I think it depends on where you grew up. I grew up in a diverse city so I got the acting white from everyone who wasn't black. However, the people I've talked to who heard it from mostly other blacks grew up in largely black communities, so I guess it varies.

When I was younger, I had a cousin who gave me shit about going to a white school and acted white, even after telling her that it's not just white people there. She was from a mostly black and Latino city.

I like the idea! People okayed the idea of LGBT struggle being the same as African Americans struggle of acceptance, (which it's not!) So it's only fair to have "Trans-Black." I mean let's keep going with this! This is great!!!

As soon as I read the title, I knew who it was talking about...and the first thing I was going to type was that EXACT quote.

are there any psychological or behavioural traits associated with any race? it's not the same thing.

She's either crazy or a Narcissist trying to make a living anyway she can. Maybe she'll turn herself into a Black man in the future?
On a more serious note....Hotzz is right and ditto...

..Dolezal you maniac... she's pointing out the weakness of the SJW crowd to boot!

Because its an apples to rocks comparison. A white person who adopts aspects of black culture (both positive and negative ones) at the end of day is still white and never will be a "black". I say that as black person who believes there isn't one single way to define what it means to be black.

[MrFanti]

I would therefore debate that this applies to all races. Thus no longer can you say "White people this"...or "Asians that".......

I'm also Black.

Anyways, topic of discussion...that's what this forum is "General Discussion".....I've said all that I've wanted to say on the subject.

And the next step is the "otherkin" brigade. It's this kind of nonsense that is fueling the alt-right backlash against Liberal ideas.
