Some movie roles DO require you to actually be and/or have the appearance of the thing you're playing, why do you think Christian Bale's casting as Moses got so much backlash? Saying it's okay for a 6'4" black man with 6 packs to play a short Asian school girl because non-doctors play doctors all the time, for example is a HUGE stretch.

I can definitely see the other side of the argument, the problem lies when the same people crying foul about this call anyone who has a problem with Green Ranger being girlwashed into Tomi for the hypothetical Power Rangers sequel that won't be coming now a sexist/misogynist (there were definitely some feminists saying that). I don't want Tommy the Green Ranger being turned into Tomi the Green Ranger or Ellen Ripley being turned into Allen Ripley.

race and height are social constructs

Yep some people even believe that making ajoke about some black person (not related to his race or color) is still racism.
