Guest auroralbutterfly Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I'm Chinese, but when I was younger, people thought I was either Vietnamese or Chinese. Now, it's either Korean, Japanese, or Chinese and less of Vietnamese.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taewoorizip Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I'm mixed Native American and black, and one day in Chinatown this lady starts talking to me in Chinese. XD LOL... Also, on two occasions, people spoke tagalog to me and I was like "???????" They thought I was Filipina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest <3 for six seasons Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Yes, i've been mistaken for being italian and being an asian american. but somebody came close in guessing my ethnicity, but he said i was 100% German, which isn`t true cause i`m british-german. HAHA. ;D someone even said i was greek. like, DUH? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest heidi81 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 People have asked me if I'm Korean, but usually they can tell I'm Chinese. Or they're just more inclined to guess Chinese since that's the most common Asian race in New York City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest she-smiles Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 i get korean & vietnamese a lot. just b/c my college has a lot of them. and recently, i encountered a caucasian student in the elevator. here's how the convo went.... him: are you chinese? me: no. him: mandarin? me: *this guy's stupid* no. him: cantonese? me: *ok, this guy's really stupid* no, mandarin and cantonese are chinese languages. him: oh. korean? me: *YAY elevator door opens* idk if he was being serious or really stupid, but it's a good thing i left before he could make an even bigger fool out of himself. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest esayel Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Man.. when I was younger, I used to get these all the time: - Chinese - Japanese - Half White/Half Chinese - [White] Mexican And I've also had those people who've said, "I have no idea what you are. But I KNOW you're not asian, black, russian, etc etc etc." But i'm filipino! Funny thing is, I live in the bay area... home of the filipinos ; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KawaiiMelanie Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I'm Korean but everybody just assumes all Asians are Japanese. It's soooo annoying. >.>!! When they say I'm not Japanese, then they go Chinese, and then go way down the list of Asian ethnicities until they reach Korean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
