I prefer "ethnicity" to "race," but the fact is, it's more likely that language will evolve to the point where the two are synonymous than it is that people will start using a word with twice as many syllables just to be technically accurate. We (those of us who are American) live in a country where inflammable means "not able to catch on fire" and flammable became a word out of thin air. Easy wins. So-called race changes can be much deeper than a shift in pigmentation and certain other features. They can also, like so many transformations, be nothing but a pretty picture. Both are fine. It was. Again, the subtleties of language are often set aside for the sake of convenience. In this case, to facilitate an ironic usage of the race card. I believe you're meant to turn into a hot chick now. |

Re: Race Card TG
I dunno, I like transformation in general due to 1. The change. Duh. and 2. The whole forced into a new role thing. Physical transformation plus all the consequences of said transformations. How people perceive you, how you perceive yourself, how this affects your life etc. It's kind of psychological for me.
Bracing for incoming "you're a racist you make me sick". |

Re: Race Card TG
Whos gonna call you a racist? Isn't that what any transformation fetish boils down to? It is, for me at least, the fascination with becoming something completely different and alien, no matter what ethnicity, gender or species.
Though personally I've always been more interested in the transformation itself, the process, than the any consequences the change may bring.

Re: Race Card TG
I think the whole argument is kind of silly, to be honest. I find people toss the word 'racist' around with very little consideration. Discussing race doesn't make you racist, unless you want to use the term in the absolutely loosest sense of the word (aware of ethnic differences), and hypersensitivity to any mention of the various branches of the big human family tends to be pretty counterproductive.
Anyways, can't wait to see what you come up with next BSB! |

Re: Race Card TG
Good news everyone!
I think this may be my most racist one yet! Thanks for all the kind words guys, though I'll be ending the series with three, I was thinking about including at least one more in the series but I wanted to keep the contrast in a transformation between an african man and a caucasian woman. However doing a fourth after this would mean interupting the pattern and I really didn't want to do that so I'm ending the series with three. Sorry folks. http://blackshirtboy.deviantart.com/#/d3b2a5g

Great stuff! I'd still love to see more, but you're the one providing, so do what you'd like.
