I've already weighed in on my opinion about transgenders. Gender is a social construct and with few exceptions, caused by the roles society expects of us because of our genitalia. I am no expert. What I am is a reasonably intelligent person capable of research and deductive reasoning.
Steve Martin did a movie years ago in which a white boy is raised in a black family. The boy is shocked to discover he's white. It was a hilarious fictional concept. Transracial was a joke.
I know a woman who dresses, behaves, and speaks like a black woman. She is married to a black man and has given birth to five children society labels "African-American". I've told her she's a black girl in a white skin. I have joked with a Sioux friend that I'm a Indian in a white body. Never did it occur to me that someone would seriously make such a claim.
Well, someone did. The same people who are lauding the courage of a "woman" with a penis are having conniptions over a "black" who has no proven African genealogy. My question is - really, at the root of it, what is the difference? How is transracial so different from transgender?
