It is far less a stretch for a person to identify as a person of another race than it is to identify as a different gender. Could that child lobby to be recognized as black, or Hispanic , or Caucasian ??? Why it why not, since the person's feelings of belonging are the most important thing, right??

Yes. Since they feel race-locked.

I think it is fair to say that some people do believe they are the wrong race.

And sure they should be able to consider themselves whatever they want but that is besides the point that it shouldn't' matter what race they are.

I have come out and said you should just be civil especially in some other posts of transgender people, and i still by that.

However i also don't go around addressing people by their race all the time either.

A persons perception of race isnt determined by endogenous endocrine and neurological controls.

Taking this a step further, say a teenage girl says she was born into the wrong family, she is really of british royalty. Should she be addressed as a princess?

Yes. Instead of being a 4.5" Asian man with a 3 inch penis, he can say he is a 6.4" African American that is hung like a horse. Heck why do words mean anything anymore?
I guess this type of loose play with words is also acceptable on a job application or interview?

I am a space shuttle actually born in the body of a white man. You have to respect me as a space shuttle because it's my civil right.

Do you see how dumb this is? Trannies are bad news. They have my sympathy for being screwed in the head, but I'm not going to play make believe with them.

Race is biological in that it is indicative of basically a complex family tree, so while you can't change your biological history, there is certainly nothing wrong with a person identifying with a racial culture not usually associated with his biological race. Sounds like you're trying to make a shitty point, but you have started the perfect thread for Revelator and Malik Agar.

If a child is born the wrong race then Mom has been playing with the postman.

Why is it a shitty point? If we have to make all kinds of concessions because someone feels like they are a woman instead of a man, then why shouldn't we recognize a person as the race they feel they are?

Fine with me. It takes a nosy, insecure weirdo to be bothered by such things.

You're the kind of person who thinks it's a great idea to tell a schizophrenic, "Yes, there really ARE voices!"

I agree that the lefts attempt to redefine traditional words will be an awesome failure to society as a whole. It is already clear from some of the post in this thread that they have accomplished much of their goal.
