“Transracial identity is a concept that allows white people to indulge in blackness as a commodity, without having to actually engage with every facet of what being black entails — discrimination, marginalization, oppression, and so on,” Zeba Blay wrote. “It plays into racial stereotypes, and perpetuates the false idea that it is possible to ‘feel’ a race” — as Jenner “felt” she was a woman.

Serious, HOW can you feel something that you’ve never been before? Jenner, like myself really has NO clue what it feels like to be a woman.

Can I say “I feel like a bat?” Really? What does the feel like? No one knows.

As there are no major genetic differences between races, then it’s probably safe to say that Rachel had a good idea what it feels to be a black woman, as she was accepted to be one by all her associates.

Sure. And women were NEVER treated that way right?
