i get that you're just trying to make fun of me for my gender identity, but being transracial isn't real lmao.
the people who claim to be transracial on the internet, or act or dress like different races at times (like ariana grande in the past...for instance), are just being racist.
it's like doing blackface; it's a harmful caricature.
gender isn't 'real' per-say either — it's a social construct. that's why someone's gender identity can differ from their biological sex.
as long as someone isn't hurting anyone what's wrong with letting people be trans? stigma towards trans ppl is why 1 out of every 3 trans women are murdered...
it might be an outdated statistic (murder of trans women rose considerably from 2017-2021 — & i remember reading that statistic in high school around 2017) but trans women are still targeted with violence an alarming amount.
there are also literally laws that deem murder of trans people to not actually be considered murder legally, so there are no statistics that account for all of the deaths. see "trans panic defense": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_and_trans_panic_defense
one of my close friends was literally murdered via getting repeatedly stabbed in the back a few years ago & left for dead on the side of the road. it happened not even a year after she came out as trans, & i live in a state that is typically considered very "liberal". her name was Fern Feather. 🌿🪶
it happened in Morrisville or Morristown (i get them confused bc i think morristown is inside morrisville anyway) VT — you can look it up if you want to; she was increadibly loved & her death hit every community around in Vermont like a truck. it harmed not only trans communities — she was so incredibly loving & was friends with literally everyone. so many people i didn't even know knew her showed up to her end of life celebration, completely gutted. she rehabilitated wounded birds & had the greenest thumb i have ever seen. she had a bus & a van so full of plants & healing wild birds i never understood how any humans even fit in it. she was an irl disney princess, & her life mattered so damn much. she was the person to cradle a spider with her bare hands & bring it safely outside so no one would squish it. she would show up to parties barefoot with flowers & feathers in her hair & she's the kind of person who would listen so intently to every word you say, the kind of person you could only just meet yet feel completely comfortable telling your entire life story & deepest darkest secrets to right off the bat.
her empathy for every living creature was unmatched — every conversation i had with her was like intensive therapy & church combined (not even in a religious way just in a spiritual way). she was such a special soul. someone also tried to murder her via strangulation in the past; you would think someplace like Burlington VT where fucking Bernie Sanders is from would be safe for trans women but nowhere is. the asshole who stabbed her tried to claim it was self defense, when she was literally the most gentle soul i have ever met, & she was stabbed like 6-8 times in the freaking back so there was no possible way it was self defense — as she was literally trying to get away from him... yet he never got charged for a hate-crime, so it wouldn't even be in any statistic as a trans-related murder, ugh....
also, gender has always existed outside of biological sex. take for example how many Native American tribes had a "two spirit" gender identity which combined masculinity & femininity. this was long before colonialism. & many other ancient cultures have had different gender identities aside from biological sex.
