No, you can't identify as 'transracial'. But you can affirm your gender

    I don't think I understand what this is saying. If race presents as traits that are socially constructed, how is that not also true of gender?

    Gender is the "socially constructed" categorization of sexual characteristics that an individual presents. When a trans person seeks various operations, hormone therapy, or changes their apperance/mannerisms, they are seeking to adhere to socially constructed norms for people of the opposite sex.

    Do we really understand what's going inside a person to make them feel like they should be presenting as the opposite sex? I don't think we do (could be mistaken). And so, I wouldn't presume that this is fundamentally different from what is going on when, say, a white person who grew up immersed in black culture feels they should be presenting as a black person.

    Can someone help me understand what I'm missing?

    No, we don't even understand what the **** is going on...

    'Transracial' Influencer Oli London Reveals Plans for Penis Reduction Surgery

    Transracial" influencer Oli London has revealed that he's looking into getting penis reduction surgery, as his laundry list of cosmetic procedures continues to grow.

    The social media star, who was born British and white, has spent an estimated $250,000 on around 20 surgeries in an attempt to make himself look Korean. He specifically wants to resemble BTS star Jimin.

    And London, who has booked himself in for a full face and neck lift in Turkey in the coming weeks, has revealed to Newsweek that he has made enquiries about taking an extreme step in his physical transformation.

    He said: "I don't want people to get offended by this, but in Korea, [the average] penis is like 3.5 inches, and I get trolled all the time. People say, 'Oh, you can't be Korean. You're not 100 percent Korean,' and I just want to be 100 percent Korean.

    "I would even have a penis reduction so I'm, like, the Korean average. That's how far I'm willing to go. I can have it done in Thailand, and it will cost between $6,000 and $8,000. Thailand's cheaper. And to be honest, they do specialize in those kind of things in Thailand, because they have a lot of sex changes and stuff.

    I have no idea who this is and I couldn't name any member of BTS. If he wants to cut his junk because he thinks that will make him more Korean then go ahead.

    What I'm more bothered by is that an "influencer" makes enough money to afford these type of surgeries.

    I may not understand but if you want to cut your dick down to 3.5 inches to be Korean you're either trolling them, dedicated to this, or mentally insane. Is that even proven...never mind.

    Yeah...she didn't say that at all. Gender affirming healthcare does not equal SRS. It is 100% not the same thing lol.
