Instead of people getting mad at biracial folks and multiracial folks for "passing", why don't people get mad that society expects mixed people to chose just one race and just one ethnicity? No one asks to be born; that's up to your parents. If society wasn't so racially intolerant then there wouldn't be an issue. If all of their races and all of their ethnicities accepted them, there wouldn't be an issue. Mixed folks "pass" to survive. They don't owe anyone any answers. We need to stop asking so much of people just because they exist. The world needs to stop with the otherism. We're all human beings.
