"Ja Du hasn’t told his family yet because he believes they will laugh at the notion of changing your ethnicity...He is also transsexual and is considering changing his gender as well. He has spoken to his mom and family about that."

Sooo, he's afraid his family will laugh at him for being "trans-racial," but they were apparently OK with him being "transsexual." This is one messed up dude.

Does he eat balut? That’s the real test ...

Try identifying as an amphibian for a while.

I’m a wealthy man who was born in a poor body. I need compensation! I should be treated as the wealthy man I believe I am!

</sarc>

Also, I demand compensation for my ancestors having had land stolen when they chose the wrong ‘George’ in that little tussle you call the ‘War of Independence’. I AM OWED!!

</MORE sarc>

Hmmm... Try this:

[MeanWestTexan]

Well, it’s apparently not OK to be white in the USA.

This is a logical step.

[Yaelle]

Uh oh. I feel like lunch.

[AZLiberty]

Or durian fruit.

My Star Child name is

Pharoah Samadasham von Wollybully
Presider over the Inner Council
Pleiadean Ministry for Human/Earth Stuff

My true identity was revealed to me by Master Ra Ruh Ro
During a screening of Felini's Satyricon at the Art Theater
in Hammond, Indiana on a Hot August Night
with the leaves hangin' down
and the grass on the ground smellin' sweet.

Upon public revelation of my true identity,
Earthlings will be required to pay up,
in the form of a brand new Moto Guzzi Eldorado
and an open line of credit
so's I can eat good
and wear groovy threads.

(Hey! It's no less plausible than Talcum X,
Rachael Dolezal, Bruce Jennifer or Honest Hillary.)

Some help here -— You can’t even wear a Native American costume for Halloween because it is appropriating their culture, right?

How is calling yourself by another nationality not appropriating their culture?

When did the world go crazy that someone could even say they were Filipino (or German or Japanese), who wasn’t?
