Race and gender are both social constructs. Yet, the mainstream liberal position seems to be that people should be allowed to transition gender freely, but not to do the same with race. I've seen a couple attempts recently to explain this distinction, but they've been poorly written -- mostly avoiding making an argument at all, and instead attacking the motives of anyone who would even draw the comparison. But, just because those who've been offering explanations have been doing a terrible job doesn't mean there isn't a perfectly good case to be made for treating the two things so differently. I'm curious if anyone here has encountered such an explanation.
