Not only does this explain his book, the Man Inside Me which features a dark shadowy version of Tobias Fünke on the cover, it also explains why he inexplicably gets along with Ice the Bounty Hunter and Carl Weathers.

Being transracial explains how he was able to obtain his therapy license; on the university application he checked Black for his race. There is no way that, these days, a white person at his level of incompetence would have lasted through four years of classes, if he were even accepted in the first place. But it's not exactly society's place to decide which kind of race/gender/sex/orientation/animal we feel like is it? So they couldn't exactly kick him out could they?

just some food for thought guys

“[The writers have] gone on little tangents where you think they’re going to start a storyline and they’ll pull it back. I remember they were going to do one about Tobias actually being a rare black person, where he would have this rare disease and was actually black. It’s these hysterical, crazy ideas that they could have continued on.”

Albino black man was the old theory but I think transracial is more plausible

There was some scene where Lindsay compared him to a "big black guy" and he says "well I know I'm not a 'big' guy...."

Literally the first time we see Tobias in the pilot episode, the narrator says "This is Lindsey Bluth. As a youthful act of defiance, she married this man (cuts to picture of Tobias)." Gee, I wonder why marrying him could be considered a youthful act of defiance?

My great-grandfather started Larsen Pork Products with little more than three pigs and a killing hammer. Today, I'm proud to say, we kill more pigs than pig hepatitis.
In the 4th season I think the narrator makes a comment about how Lindsay being attracted to Herbert Love (Terry Crews) makes sense since he's similar to Tobias when they first started dating. So yeah, I think they might finally pull the trigger on that joke next season.

You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!
i can only enjoy jokes when they power up like goku over the course of dozens of episodes

Exactly that's why Tobias is transracial not an albino black person.

they also call Maeby a "Nubian" in one of those articles on screen about her as a studio exec but apparently I'm the only one on the internet who ever noticed that so
