]So being identified by your skin color offends you but being identified by your hair color is fine. [/b] A fine demonstration of modern liberalism. There is absolutely no difference whatsoever between those two things. Both of them are simply a matter of pigmentation. But if you are identified by a characteristic that is not acceptable to the liberal then it's racist profiling, while being "profiled" in a way that does not violate current political correctness is acceptable.
Posts like this one are why I don't believe left wing people when they say they are for freedom and diversity. They decide what's acceptable and what isn't and expect everyone else to conform. It's offensive if she is identified by the pigmentation in her skin cells, but completely different if she is defined by the pigmentation in her hair follicles.
Of course because hair color can be changed. Your hair can be any color in the rainbow, your skin color can't.

In certian cases, it could be a little, let's say, unsettling for someone to just call me a black guy and nothing else. But for the most part, this is a non-issue.
If you can't understand any of that, then I don't know what else to tell ya. It seems that you just took one thing and ran with it in the complete opposite direction of where I was going.
