I think there should be a “do not identify with a race” option under race like the “do not identify with a gender.” Seems strictly parallel, and if anything, the “real” answer is less clear than the having or not of parts. I bet that while we can all successfully tic a box on a DMV form, I’m not the only person who really doesn’t identify with a race, and I think it’s different enough from “other.” Just my $.02.
