If a black man talks and behaves like a stero-typical white man then no, that alone doesn't make him white. You can't just tell a person they are trans-ethnic because you think they behave more like a different race than their own. It's only if he himself identifies as a white person, when he becomes trans-ethnic.
No. What I meant is that if somebody identifies themself as another race then they are trans-ethnic. However just saying to someone "you act like *any race*, therefore you have to be one of them" is racist.
Is it normal to identify as a black male in this way?

So if the other guy judges you based on a stereotype he's a racist. But if you judge yourself based on the same stereotype you're trans-ethnic.
