We don't 'figure out' how to relate to someone who's not the same gender or race as us, we just usually like the stories and characters for what they are. Otherwise we'd have to 'figure out' how to relate to people of other races that aren't white.

Thank you! Please pass the note to the Film Execs who insist that their precious white boy demographic can't possibly relate to anybody else.

So much this! I want to take every SJW who uses this specious argument, and beat them about the head with LeGuin's Hainish Cycle stories/books/etc.

Possibly a decent human being figures it out so early they aren't aware that it was there to be figured out. Or it could be a by-product of so much entertainment in this hemisphere being all about a white male, that anybody else gets accustomed to bridging any gaps early. Because there is definitely a belief out there that white boys won't buy tickets for movies that don't have a white boy hero.
