A Florida man who was born white is now claiming that he is actually 'transracial' and Filipino. Adam Wheeler, who now goes as Ja Du, considers himself to be from the Philippines and drives around in a Tuk Tuk in Tampa - a vehicle used for public transit in the country. 'Whenever I'm around the music, around the food, I feel like I'm in my own skin,' he said to WTSP.

Sometimes you feel like a nut. Sometimes you don’t.

society used to send people like that to a mental institute- but no longer, now society passes laws making it illegal to disbelieve him or rather use the wrong name or gender or pronoun, or ethnic description

If we accept that a man can transform into a woman if he wishes hard enough what is wrong with this? Wouldn’t it be nice to become a black man and get an NAACP scholarship and then transform back? Everybody should be allowed to be what race they want without bigotry.

Uncle Tom Obama did his best.

On the spectrum, he’s apparently relatively sane:

"Ja Du hasn’t told his family yet because he believes they will laugh at the notion of changing your ethnicity...He is also transsexual and is considering changing his gender as well. He has spoken to his mom and family about that."

Sooo, he's afraid his family will laugh at him for being "trans-racial," but they were apparently OK with him being "transsexual." This is one messed up dude.

Sorry ace, if you were born in the US, and didn’t give up your citizenship, then you are American, just American. If you want to say your ancestors were from somewhere else, great. But you’re not. How easy is that to understand?

But I have a great idea for these people: make them get a green card and convert to American citizenship so they can receive the goodies Americans get. If they don’t wish to, let them go to the country they profess. At their expense. That’s fair. No harm no foul. Bye.

I don't think this is so far-fetched.

I, myself, identify as a disabled, old, black, Spanish surnamed Native American lesbian woman trapped in a man's body.

This makes me a member of seven, count 'em, seven protected minority groups and therefore entitled to all kinds of bennies.

(Oh, yeah, and anyone who disagrees with me is a racist, sexist, transphobic, abelist, ageist hater.)

When I was in Subic Bay decades ago, the young ladies I met in the bars of Olongopo referred to people like him as “Benny Boys”.

Filipino not a race. A nationality.
