White People Keep Posing As People of Color

[TheParser]

With all due respect, this is a non-issue.

Very, very, very few women (or men) in this nation (or world) want to pass as a dark-skinned person.

Those who do so obviously have some personal issues in their lives.

We can feel sorry for them, but it is not our place to judge them.

I get a tan every summer to pass for another ethnicity/nationality...

If all of this white privilege exists why do white people keep getting caught pretending to be someone other than white?

White People Keep Posing As People of Color for Clout

For generations, people of color have had to pass for survival. Now white people are wearing the experiences of racialized people like a costume—and getting called out for it.

I am lily white and there is no damn way I can pull of being another color!

I have had Mexicans ask if I was Mexican and that makes me laugh!

No one is white and many are mixed genetically. Race is a myth, but whining is a right wing so called conservative trait. Seems there is no cure either.

Good so now we can get rid of race/ethnic based, quotas, hiring practices, university admissions etc?

Because blacks are winning, duh ------ Haven't you noticed?? So some people want to be on the winning side.

Same deal with all the men who want to become women, as if; women are winning now, so some men want to soak that up and become part of it.

Another way men do that is to take on women's roles for profit: all the male knitters now selling books and patterns telling us how to do what we invented and already know. All the male cooks, insisting they be called "Yes, Chef!" and be obeyed instantly.

Um, if men can assume the identity of women then there is no reason a white person can't identify as black...

I suppose we can look forward to some monsters identifying as pre-teens so they can hang with and abuse them as well.

Rachel Dolezal is a perfect example of doing just that.

This looney tune was elected head of the NAACP chapter in Spokane, WA until her parents outed her as being blonde and blue eyed. Now she has moved to ID and changed her name to Nkechi Amare Diallo the name means "gift of God" in Nigerian (she has a high opinion of herself). She was also busted on two felony counts of welfare fraud. Guess she figured being a thief and a liar justified her identifying as black.

Quite right. AND everyone has to pretend to believe they really are black. Like having to pretend a man is "really" a woman because he says he is and wants special pronouns. I don't know what they'll think up as their black pronouns to further confuse us.

You're a sexist moron. BTW, the top chefs of the last century, worldwide, have been MEN. The same holds true for couturier--climb off your sexist high horse and just admit, greatness in any profession has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with sex or ethnicity. Shallow.

And there have never been women who pretend to be men. Quit trying to increase your self image by degrading other sexes and races. Shallow.

Back in the WWF, a white man, the One Man Gang, started identifying as African American a number of years ago.

White is not a color?

Not according to the race pimps

The only race pimps are the people like yourself. Whites are the ones pretending they aren't a race but everyone else is.

This is more silly season. There aren't all that many people trying to be black and Asian wannabes, listen to this:

Good point on the women pretending to be men. What does that say about female white privilege for a white girl claiming to be a white male? If a person can feel like a different gender then they can feel like a different race. If it's okay to appropriate gender then it's okay to appropriate race/nationality or culture...and it all should be covered by insurance and children need to be taught that racial identity is based on how one feels and if they don't feel comfortable with the race they were assigned at birth then they probably are a different race, and that's okay.

People voted for Obama hoping it would end all this shit, but he made it so much worse and we still haven't recovered.
