My point is I could claim not to be someone from African descent to them and just act like yea, I was born and raised in Dominican Republic or some place like that...
Now, I'm not sure if you are thinking that race is based on skin color or appearance..

My original point was so rudimentary and simplistic in nature that to even engage in this "discussion" with you is amazing to me. I am almost at a lost of words at your logic, or in my opinion, lack thereof.....
I'll try one last time.
If you walk into a room of people, naked, and do not speak. The general consensus would be that a naked "black" man walked into the room. Not an naked "Asian" man or "White" or "West Indian" or "African" or "Gay" or "Straight". So to my original point, a gay person, if they choose, can conceal their sexual preference. It can only be speculated. But in terms of race, judgments are made upon
sight. Thus my comment, you cannot hide your race in a closet...
But if you think you can hide your race, well.......
