I was having a discussion the other day about
Rachel Dolezal, the white girl who "identifies" as black. Bruce - AKA Caitlan - Jenner entered the conversation and the person I was discussing this with said that this was different. I don't understand how identifying with being black is any different than identifying with a gender other than what your genetics gave you. To me it's the same thing. So if people are willing to accept that a man can identify as being a woman, surgically alter their appearance, and have their gender legally changed, why can't a white(black, brown, whatever) person identify as another race, alter appearance and have their race legally changed. If you accept one, then logically you have to accept the other, correct?
