Are you aware of a good rebuttal to the comment you replied to? It tends to trip me up as even through it's often presented in bad faith, our concept of race is mostly cultural too isn't it? It feels like they're different somehow, but I can't articulate the reason why and so it's like I've stumbled into a "gotcha".

gender is a social construct which can change depending on social expectations or the mental feeling of the individual, while race is a biological construct that can't be changed
