It's funny because some SJW types on Twitter are defending her saying she's "Transethnic" or some nonsense.

You do realize that basically 100% of the people peddling that line are right-wing 4chan/8chan/etc. trolls posing as SJWs for trollish purposes, no?

How would anyone tell?  The idea that gender is flexible but that ethnicity is a stable category is in itself hilarious.

I don't have the first clue what you're trying to say here.  I think that you're misinterpreting and oversimplifying what people have to say about gender to the point of incoherence, but even that I'm not sure of.

This is, I'm sure, a massive oversimplification that gets a lot of things wrong, but I'd rather say that race is almost wholly a matter of how one is perceived by society, whereas while there is a large element of "how one is perceived" with gender, as well, there is also a strong biological component of the latter.  Where it gets tricky, of course, is that gender dysphoria is an actual scientifically demonstrated thing, where someone has a brain structure different from what they were assigned at birth. Calling that "flexibility" is... well, maybe not entirely inaccurate, but it is kind of misleading.

If a person is assigned a gender at birth, and they come to identify with a different gender, they tend to be considered transgender. That label doesn't depend on a brain scan.

If a person is assigned a race/ethnicity at birth, and they come to identify with a different race/ethnicity, how is that not transethnic?  If race is just a matter of perception, then that's all the more reason not to insist "she's really white."

Her parents are Christian fundamentalists? Who adopted black kids?

Is this in any way surprising?

She may have made most of the cultural transition to being black, but she is still a white woman here. 



No deceit here. The woman in the image has clearly renounced all connections to any prior 'whiteness' except for keeping a Czech maiden name that blew her cover.
