That whole article is biased and one sided.

A trans person isnt born saying "I want to be the opposite sex"

Its not until they are introduced to opposite sex things and activities that they want the desire to change gender.

Same with transracial.

Well isn't that rich?! When will ya tell ya truth, Deven? Funny lookin self

See what happens when you put ugly people on a pedestal because you're fascinated with "trade"?  His ugly ass should have never been a conversation. I hope his baby has Down syndrome. I'm pretty sure the gene already runs in the family looking at his ugly ass.

Just playing devil's advocate here, but why should he not comment? Because he's closeted or whatever?

Frankly as a Father-to-be his opinion is more valid than alot of y'all on here.

So they call rachel dolezal's trans stint "cultural appropriation"

But how when she IDENTIFIES as a black woman? The writer cant even respect rachel and refer to her by the race she "choose to identify as?"

Hmm, where have I seen this complaint before?

This article is hypocritical. The same arguments she has against rachel are the same points and arguments people have against transgender.

Just the same way rachel can wash off darker makeup, a trans has to take off wigs, makeup, stop popping estrogen pills and who knows what other trickery.

I was reading one comment in TSR post and this woman said that her friend was born male but identified himself as female at a young age and with the parents encouragement began the process of taking hormones at the age of thirteen. Her friend later changed his mind and wanted to revert the process back to being a male. He got married to a woman and they are now having difficulty conceiving due to the hormones the guy was taking as a teenager.

Yea this is exactly why.  Mufuckas going around FEELING like sumn else

I work in health insurance and you would be surprised how many parents contact us in regards to getting their kids on these hormones and our coverage in bold print states that while we do cover the procedures, medication etc, we will not cover the process of switching you back.

This "as is" purchase has me giggling

what kind of ppl would even put kids through this?!! 

even the mental aspect. Stop TELLING kids how to identify and what label they need

let them be FREE ... that's the problem with adults, they are fckd up and they don't want anyone having the chance to choose their own happiness

LEAVE THE DAMN KIDS ALONE. shit

Full of double standards

The fundamental difference between Dolezal's actions and trans people's is that her decision to identify as black was an active choice, whereas transgender people's decision to transition is almost always involuntary. Transitioning is the product of a fundamental aspect of our humanity – gender – being foisted upon us over and over again from the time of our birth in a manner inconsistent with our own experience of our genders. Doctors don't announce our race or color when we are born; they announce our gender. People who are alienated from their presumed gender and define themselves according to another gender have existed since earliest recorded history; race is a medieval European invention. Thus, Dolezal identified as black, but I am a woman, and other trans people are the gender they feel themselves to be.

Dolezal might feel an enormous affinity to blackness – so much that she decided to identify as black – but her decision to occupy that identity is one that was forged through her exposure to black culture, not a fundamental attribute of her existence. Someone's racial identification isn't automatically less important than their gender in an American context, given our tumultuous history and the ways in which society's perceptions of both either privilege or restrict one's economic and social opportunities and mobility. But someone who crosses racial boundaries from a privileged one to a marginalized one is much more likely to do so for political purposes (as Dolezal seems to have done) or to profit from minority culture (as we've seen time and time again with white artists, like Iggy Azalea, appropriating black culture). Transitioning doesn't often benefit trans people politically or financially; it benefits us because it is a way to begin to make our external presentation match our internal perceptions of ourselves, even as it is likely to disprivilege us socially and economically.
The people comparing Dolezal to trans people are depicting our actions as rooted in the same deceptions as hers: her apparent use of skin-darkening agents and products to change the texture of her hair are, implicitly or explicitly, likened to what "men" – to use a trans woman's example – doing what we do to "deceive" people into thinking we are women. But Dolezal engaged in such actions in order to be perceived as black, in a racialized American environment where that matters. Trans people transition in order to be the gender we feel inside and, while there may come a time when posers will appropriate trendy trans culture for profit, right now, there's no advantage to transitioning when you're not trans. Trans people don't even have the legal protections – like laws that protect access to housing, public accommodation and employment opportunities – that black people and other racial minorities have fought so hard to win.

Though I can't live in Dolezal's shoes and can't understand her motivations, to me, her long history of fighting for black civil rights makes me at least a little empathetic to the decision, however ill-advised, however she arrived at it, that she made to identify as black: at least she didn't just co-opt black culture for profit without having any real concern for black people. The people using her mistakes to try to "understand" or "explain" the experiences of trans people have none of my empathy; they're simply propagating the stereotype that trans people are out to fool the rest of you. I don't need to pass as a woman the way Dolezal needs to pass as black, for the simple reason that I am a woman.

Trans propaganda. More than likely typed by someone trans or with Trans connection.

These "articles" arent impressing anyone.
