Now let's go shopping and tell the cashier our $1 bills are $100 dollar bills.
Whoo hoo! Lets sue them if they dont agree too!
Blacks have every right to discriminate against a white woman who suddenly desires to be black. She's never had to grow up and live with the issues blacks in general have had to currently and historically endure.
They have every right to see her as a poser.
Why????
So what someone suffers from, makes something ok?
So shes a poser, but Kaitlyn jenner isnt?
She WAS a poser. And she was not a poser because of the environment she grew up in.
She was a poser because she was a white woman claiming to be a black woman.
In other words, it was a lie.
Lie

There was no truth to it.
And guess what ......... there is no truth when a man says he is a woman.
It would be a lie also.

Not sure what you're getting at here.
Nope. I see most women and/or homosexuals embracing the choice as bold and brave. Present company's moral objection noted, of course.
Of course you arent, since logic seems to be confusing to the liberal mind
You would, the devil agrees with you too.

Noppers.
A liar is a liar no matter how good or bad a life they have had.
They are both posers.
yep and they all get it, they just pretend they don't, sadly pretend is all they have.
*adjusts tiara*
I bet they also pretend they are not idiots.
I'm so glad you are here. You are so much fun!

You know - allowing only women in women's bathrooms/locker rooms/showers, writing "male" on men's driver's licenses, stuff like that.
I asked what YOU would be doing different

I don't know - I am not acquainted with any of them.
So no transexual is demanding anything of you.

Race is completely a social construct.
I remember attending an exhibit on race at one point that had a fascinating display on skin color. There were shields that hid all but a couple inches of skin, and the viewer was asked to try and decide whether the person was black, white, Latino, Asian. Lifting the shields to see a lot more of the photograph was an excellent lesson in the amazing variety of pigmentation and how we make our "race" judgments based on a whole variety of factors.
The truth is that the racial traits exist on wide spectrums and are completely relative to each other. There's no clear boundaries between any "race" and another, and the whole thing falls apart with a little bit of critical thinking.
Since there's no objective way to decide a person's race, it means someone has to decide. Who decides? It seems to be that we've decided the community of people who identify themselves as a given race get to decide whether any individual is of them or not. Sounds like the definition of social construct.
Gender, however, other than a very small number of cases, is pretty easily determined by the existence of reproductive organs. Where you like to put those organs doesn't change whether they are there or not. Nor does the style of the clothes you choose to conceal them with.
Cutting them all off and out doesn't really change you either. You can take all the blossoms off a plant, it's still the plant identified by those blossoms.
Delusion is increasing, just like He said it would.

It's completely backwards. Gender is biologically important while race isn't.
