I forgot to mention that the whole concept of 'cultural appropriation' is based on segragation based on bodily qualities. Sound familiar? Separate
faucets for white and black and asian people..??
If you are live in an asian body, you can do kimonos and chopsticks, but you can't use the wheel. If you have a 'white face', you can't use gunpowder
or eat rice.
I mean, it's a BODY-based classification of people, isn't it? Or is it location-based? If you live inside some culture, you can appropriate the
culture? Do you have to be BORN into a culture? Is it enough to 'look asian' to wear a kimono?
I mean, it's so stupid and insulting, that you look at someone's body to determine what they are allowed to do, isn't it?
Shouldn't the goal here to get rid of all racial inequality and to be as free and equal as possible, and to see everyone as human beings, not as their
'race' of the body or 'culture' of that body? After all, you can't really choose which culture you are born in (well, you can, but it's a long story),
and once you are born into some country that created some culture, that's it, you can't switch. But why can't you? I mean, if gender changing is
supported, why can't cultural surgery also be possible?
I don't know, I think I am going insane..
