This is just sarcasm and a campaign against flexible gender identity. But let's talk about it since it's an interesting topic with a lot of gray areas.

There's a difference between race, ethnicity and nationality. Race is about your phenotype or physical appearance (skin color most of the time). Ethnicity is about culture, traditions or heritage. Nationality is the status of belonging to a particular country. Nationality can easily be changed as we all know. Also, you can adopt the ethnicity of where you were born or where you grew up even though you don't typically look like people of that region. If I look white cause my father is white and my mother is mixed (my grandfather is Yoruba), it doesn't stop me from adopting Yoruba as my ethnicity if I identify with thier lifestyle. Race is mostly physical and sometimes, not immediately obvious. When your race isn't immediately obvious (maybe cause you have parents from different races) you can identify as mixed or as your preferred race (though your kids may not necessarily look the part). However, when your 100%, then it'll take some life threatening surgery to change that. Unlike nationality, race shouldn't be restrictive. There shouldn't be anything like "show you're white before you enter here". This implies that you can go about calling yourself any race and that's your business.

This difference between ethnicity and race suggest that our behavior and our looks define two different things. Our behavior is more in tune with our ethnicity while out looks define our race. If this is about her personality, it is her ethnicity that is in contention, not her race. And yes that can be changed as its not restrictive in the US. The characteristics you have as someone from a certain ethnicity are mostly as a result of the culture in which you grew up. There aren't congenital, they are acquired. This is unlike gender which is defined by BOTH physical and behavioral attributes. And again, in the case of gender, these attributes are inborn. Therefore, people who transgender don't do so on the basis of acquired characteristics since those can be changed. Instead, they do so on the basis attributes that weren't learned. Also, gender is restrictive. You can't enter certain places as a man regardless of how you identify yourself. This is why people transgender.

We all know someone or some people who walk, talk, and do everything like a woman even though they are men. Most of these people have been like that since they were born and they can't bring themselves to do anything like men cause thier brains aren't wired that way. We mock them as they struggle to fit in, we stay away from them as we consider them embarrassing. Some of them grow thick skin and move on to achieve something in life. Others become broken beyond repair. When people switch genders, they do it to save themselves and not to please or displease anyone. They do it to have a life. It is a matter of survival. A psychologists can't talk anyone into becoming manly since it's a hormonal thing.

In terms of morality, there's really no difference between enlarging one's breasts, working on nose or hairline, doing anti-aging surgery and doing surgery to alter one's gender. All these alter the features you were born with. You only draw the line where you feel you'd never need to cross, but don't expect others to adopt your line as a standard. If a trans person isn't hurting me, it's not my business to campaign against them.

Happy Sunday!

Gender is the most rigid. It is biological and determined by your genes. It is not about behavior or pretense. This is the nonsense you people are preaching that is causing confusion. You are born with a particular gender, Male or Female! There are some, very small population of people born inter sex with their genitals and even those, the body has a preference for a particular gender. Race is a social construct and hence much more a flexible definition than gender. Gender is a no go area and no matter how you pretend, you can never change the gender you were born with as you can’t change your genes. All attempts are just cosmetic surgery.

All I can say is, a time will come that, after they've destroyed their country with all the mental disability wokeness on display these days, Africa and other nonconformist countries will be the new bride the few remaining sane ones left will run to for sanity and safe haven.

Whilst we all announce our displeasure against these abnormalities, we mustn't at all forget that all of this began with Feminism, that modern snowflakey kind.
