I genuinely have no idea where the joke came from but it seems pretty big since I've heard it IRL a few times now. Where did this come from?

Gender is also fake but I don't go around telling people they don't have a right to identify as they like because they don't meet my standards for defining the fake thing
Sure, but nobody out there is using their gender as a way to harm other people. Unlike "Italian" Americans, for example, who love to use their "italianness" to argue for the continued generation of Christopher Columbus.
Non WASP White people who obsess over their ethnicity are essentially stealing oppression valor from actually oppressed people. The same is not true w gender
People absolutely do use their gender to harm people its called men lmao
I think its bad when Irish or Italians do the "hey we had it tough too" thing but that is just a thing they do that is annoying, like so many things they do that are annoying, and not inherent to the concept of ethnicity and lots of other American hybridized ethnicities don't do that because they don't have that history to draw on. Maybe we should just ban Irish and Italian as ethnicities and let the others have it.
