On a kind of similar note, can someone tell trans people in general to stop renaming themselves Japanese/Korean names if they’re not Japanese/Korean? I’m not calling ur ass Himiko or Jiwoo.

Now see, as an Asian person this feels very different to me. If I met someone named Georgia or Autumn I wouldn’t assume they were from that state or country or born in that season. The name “China” isn’t Chinese and no Chinese person would name their child that so it’s not cultural appropriation or something weird. Same with India and Asia. To me, I’m just one Asian person so others may view it differently.

Okay out of curiosity do you have any idea why names like China, India, and Asia are somewhat popular names for black girls
