[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Better question would be, what happens if someone checks the Black or Hispanic box (or whatever they are called in the common app) and get admitted to a particular college. Come to find out a year later that they aren't really Black. Can the college expel that student for lying in response to that question? If they do that, isn't that a lawsuit waiting to happen since the grounds for the expulsion was illegal? I say everyone check that Black box.[/quote] Do you hear yourself? Why do you think lying is ok? It wasn't before, and it isn't now. Don't lie, people. [/quote] You are now permitted (even encouraged) to lie about your gender. How is lying about your race (also an immutable genetic characteristic) any different? If I say “despite the race assigned at birth, I identify as black and you must treat me as such just like you treat trans women as women”then there is no intellectually honest progressive counter argument.[/quote]
