If people have "gender identity" issues, why not "race identity" issues?Chizzang wrote:This is an interesting situation I think...
Its one thing to say you've got this -or- that ancestry and blah blah blah
it is ENTIRELY something else to say you have BLACK parents - when they couldn't be more white
WTF..? I thinks its cool that she is motivated to help those less fortunate (or whatever)
but what the HELL is denying your parents existence all about..?
I want to hear from black people on this one (seriously) I know all you sarcastic white guys find it hilarious
in fact my girlfriend was giggling her ass off about this...
she was like:
"How do you imagine that's going to play out over time..?
Its not a sustainable fantasy..."
Dead on. I've asked several times why there is so much to do over someone dressing up like a rapper or any other black person but a dude can mimic a girl and all is fine.Baldy wrote:If people have "gender identity" issues, why not "race identity" issues?Chizzang wrote:This is an interesting situation I think...

Bruce Jenner may not as of yet but I don't think this is what many ask when they begin transitioning. They and a lot of society demands you address them as what they identify with.Chizzang wrote:Oh II get that...Baldy wrote: If people have "gender identity" issues, why not "race identity" issues?
but she told everybody that she was black
which is distinctly different than saying:
"I identify with black people or feel black or want to be black"
These things are completely different
I want vs. I am
Bruce Jenner never hid that fact that he is a man
I agree. I think this is silly, and I also think people wanting to chop their dick off is silly, but if that's what makes them happy and it doesn't impact me, then fuck it. It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world.Ursus A. Horribilis wrote:Bruce Jenner may not as of yet but I don't think this is what many ask when they begin transitioning.

Except this girl is making up hate crime episodes, childhood trauma and abuse stories, calling her adopted brother her son, etc., etc. This isn't just a white girl wanting/thinking she's black. This goes so much deeper, and in this case looks much more like a mental illness.Grizalltheway wrote:I agree.

Could be slight differences AZ but I'd bet you that most have a story of why they were driven to do what are doing. Some of them are probably a bit dramatized or even made up as well. It's just what people do. I think there is probably some amount of deviation mentally in anyone going from one thing to another. There sort of has to be. Nothing wrong with it, those are normally pretty interesting people.AZGrizFan wrote:Except this girl is making up hate crime episodes, childhood trauma and abuse stories, calling her adopted brother her son, etc., etc. This isn't just a white girl wanting/thinking she's black.

Yes, I should have added as long as it doesn't negatively affect me or anyone else. In a state full of crazies Troy is pretty much the Mecca so I guess this isn't really surprising.AZGrizFan wrote:Except this girl is making up hate crime episodes, childhood trauma and abuse stories, calling her adopted brother her son, etc., etc. This isn't just a white girl wanting/thinking she's black.

Ah-Ha...
I never considered adding a little bit of insanity into the mix
Now it actually makes more sense
If you imagine her as a bit crazy then - Ya - it comes together more easily
Okay you are successfully changing my mind
Hold the phone just a sec....she's a woman, so by DEFINITION there's more than "a little bit" of insanity already resident...Chizzang wrote:Ursus A.
