208249, My major premise is that self-identification should have a broader scope

I don't really understand transgenderism, but it is not necessary for me to understand.
I accept that someone should have the freedom to identify however they would like and we as a society should accept that.


The exact same could be said for transracialism. However people are trying to rationalize and intellectualize away a person's ability to self identify.

Ironically, many are using the same rhetoric used to diminish transgenders. Strident supportors of transgenderism are relying on Hannity and O'Reilly talking points.

This isn't some absurd slippery slope leap like someone wanting to be an airplane. This is just as logical and valid as transgenderism in my opinion.
