are authors only allowed to write books about people with the same skin color?Completely different. First video is about a white man from Canada that wanted to write about the racism that black people experience in America. But instead of going around America and interviewing Black people, or writing about research that's already been done on the subject, he decided the best thing to do was to go around America, disguised as a black man. It's weird.
what about women using male pen names?

I mean, you're a writer, not an actor. How does anyone even know what race you are?
Because he admitted he wore blackface.But, like, why?

what about women using male pen names?how common are pen names nowadays anyway? not just in this situation but in all situations
But, like, why?
He wanted to write a firsthand account about experiencing racism.Oh, I see.
Nevermind the fact that black people don't get to go home for the week and take off their face so anything he learned would be shallow at best.
It's fucking shitty. It's stealing the spotlight away from real PoC authors. It's also inauthentic as fuck.Agreed. Plus, there's also this to consider: https://thehill.com/changing-america/enrichment/education/577722-more-than-a-third-of-white-students-lie-about-their/
"Your thoughts on something everyone's obviously going to be against? I want to see some arguments."Used to be you could post literally anything here and you'd get people supporting it. The last few I can remember before our quarantine were people arguing in favor of landlords raping their female tenants in lieu of rent and another topic where some dude was arguing vehemently in favor of public masturbation.

We had to repeatedly explain why the power dynamics there made it really bad.
Now that we're locked down, people are more or less on their best behavior, and the shitposters can't come here anymore you just don't see the wild hot takes anymore.
I remember the landlord one. We had to repeatedly explain why the power dynamics there made it really bad.As opposed to all the other, more acceptable versions of rape?
As opposed to all the other, more acceptable versions of rape?seems like you're trying to make an argument where there isn't one.
My soul hurts.
As opposed to all the other, more acceptable versions of rape?What? I'm not saying "really bad" compared to other rape. I meant it in the sense that the power dynamics between landlord and tenant make it really bad compared to normal consent. Consent through coercion is not consent. I was trying to keep it short as not to derail the topic
My soul hurts.
