NOM’s Frank Schubert Attacks California’s New Transgender Student Rights Law

“You might look at my Caucasian features and wonder why I am claiming to be an African American. I may not be a natural descendent of African American lineage, but I feel black and have thus decided to identify as African American. Since I identify as African American, I am African American, and you must accept me as such. Because I claim my identity as an African American, I demand that the law recognize me as such and afford me all the rights and obligations of that ethnicity. You may think that my decision to claim an African American identity is ridiculous. You would be right. Ethnicity is determined by ancestry and genetic lineage, not by someone’s identified perceptions and ‘feelings.’ But it’s no more ridiculous than the latest craze from the left concerning something they call ‘gender identity.’ – NOM marketing head Frank Schubert, writing for Red State.
