I've been thinking over my attempt yesterday to convince @OmniDestiny that there's no transgender–"transracial" analogy. Could've said more—

Basically Rachel Dolezal is a white woman who likes black culture and has fabricated a biography and oppression experiences.
We can't say anything about transracial people until there actually are some, and until we learn about their experiences.

Cis people could not deduce anything about trans people without having actually learned about trans people's experiences through testimony.

So, until some real transracial people show up, there's nothing to be said about the topic.

Now, transracial adoption? THERE's a topic. Black people who "pass" as white? THERE's a topic. These people exist and have experiences.

Are you saying it would be more valid if more people were transracial? The concept of race would be completely turned on its head.

I'm saying I've just seen no evidence that anyone is transracial in the sense that Dolezal claims, including Dolezal.
