Is it ok for whites to darken their skin, change their hair and identify as black to get minority scholarships.

Ah yes, remember when Marx took a whole chapter of his manifesto to talk about transgender issues? No, me either.

Just keep calling anything you dislike Communism, I suppose it has worked since the 1920s.

What'll happen is that the undoubtedly biologically and physiologically advantaged XY males who "think" they're female (in other words, science deniers) will outperform the XX girls/women, shutting them out of winning games/matches/meets and sports scholarships. It's the absolute oppression of women and girls. I have NO clue why liberals/Dems are OK with that.

Not really, the point is pretending to be what you are not in order to achieve something not intended for you. Although Soul Man is a good example its not the only one. Recently there have been a few people publicly criticized for similar behavior. How is identifying as a woman when you have the physical traits of a man in order to gain a scholarship any different.

You obviously know nothing about what real trans people go through, or you wouldn't have written the bolded sentence

Regardless this is a bad idea. They did an episode on South Park regarding this. They had a male WWE wrestling star who claimed he was Trans and won every sports competition against women. The PC people in the town were torn between the PC ideology and allowing someone who clearly was not trans but wanted to cheat to win competitions. The PC people were afraid to question the motives of the male WWE star.

Perhaps we need a 3rd category. Let trans women compete against each other. Problem solved. No doubt the vast majority of trans people are doing what they have to do by transitioning but a few who are doing it just to win could make women's sports competitions meaningless. Which is not fair. And my guess is this will come up eventually. There will be a tennis, golf or WNBA star who is trans and the best in the sport. Then things will get interesting.
