    I mean medical intervention is a common way to try mitigate mental health issues. For many people it can never truly go away, but the effects can be lessened. Similarly, there are avenues to help with obesity, whether it be the psychological or physiological aspect.

    However, I cannot suddenly declare myself white and seek medical assistance to change myself on a genetic level to become white. There is quite a difference between the two issues.
