Why can one portray themselves as a different gender but not a different ethnicity? What makes ethnicity so sacrosanct but not gender?

Is this going to be the new trend? Is it okay for someone to get plastic surgery to racially copy another group?

Then she gradually morphed into a black or mixed facade and I was like WTF. Now this. K pop is the new wave, J pop hasn't quite gained as much traction, but either way she's just latching into a new identity. I don't understand how anyone thinks this is ok.

I will actually deny that she has talent.
Combo of surgery, makeup and intensive makeup like eyelid glue. Eyelid glue has been used by Asian women to give themselves eye folds, but it can be used to fake no fold, too. I think it’s weird that she’s trying to make herself look Asian; ethnicity is not a costume.
