"I really wanted to be born a woman. It all started there. A South American woman. And I'm upset that I was born a white Jewish male. I've been angry since"

This quote by Fisher Stevens speaks with the idea of identity and the desire to be something different than what one is born as. It suggests that Stevens has a strong desire to be a South American female, and that he has actually felt a sense of dissatisfaction and anger because he was born a white Jewish male. This quote speaks with the concept of intersectionality and how one's identity is shaped by several elements, such as race, gender, and religion. It also speaks to the concept of advantage and how one's identity can provide access to particular opportunities that others may not have. Eventually, this quote speaks to the concept that identity is complex and that all of us have a desire to be something various than what we are born as.
