Do you ever get your ETHNICITY mistaken...?

[Guest deformedmonkey<3]

A lot of people at my school mistake me for a white girl. And I'm not.

[Guest lunatik]

peopl mistaken me as a black person lol im jk but seriously people think im japanese but im really richard simmons/viet

[Guest MOOVERDOSE]

Three people asked me if I was Japanese.

And when I have really dark eyeliner on, people ask if I'm mixed, white and asian.

Same with my sister, apparently my sister does not look full asian.

[Guest o8/OR;nothing.]

Yes, and it gets annoying sometimes.

[Guest PunchNine]

alot of times korean ppl come up to me and start talking to me in korean.

i don't blame them. coz i dont' look taiwanese either.

[cdee]

A few of my teachers and adults thought i was korean before.

[Guest nalito]

I'm filipino. They asked if I was Chinese. I replied with a no. Then they asked if I was Mexican. I then again replied with a no.

^lol I go through that.

[Guest putasmileon]

For Japanese.

[Guest lylxcc]

hmm not really.

cuz most ppl get it right on the 1st guess that im chinese. lolz

and i tell them that im also mix with laos, khmer, and viet

[Guest IaMsEo]

people mistake me for korean, chinese, and japanese....but they never mention viet

[Guest christina.]

=__= I'm Chinese & Viet..

But one time I was called mexican. o_o;

That was very random.

One time it was Japanese..

And most of the time they say Chinese, but I'm part Viet, too.

[Guest Miekyuu]

im a mix of korean, japanese, chinese, and viet so people usually guess one of them correctly xD. I usually get asked if im korean or chinese tho haha.

[Guest LamB.ch0pz]

im flip and they don't think im full flip cuz my last names not common(they think it sounds japanese...i was like what hell heck?)..or cuz i look lighter than most flips(which i don't think so, im like tanned)gets annoying though, even my flip friends think so too. on time my bff forgot i was flip... that was sad...

[Guest grnteaaholic]

all the time. people think im viet since i'm so tan but i'm really chinese. people also think i'm not full chinese because my last name doesn't sound chinese or whatever

[Guest lady_stylesz]

All the time. They think I`m hispanic or Flip

[Guest sweetfunnyhoney]

usually: half white and half korean

i'm full korean

[Guest SUE__y]

I'm Hmong and I get mistaken to be Chinese or Vietnamese. >_<

But don't EVERY ASIAN PERSON get mistaken to be Chinese, it's like a stereotype.

[s13]

im chinese but sometimes i get mistaken for filipino..and once in a while korean

[Guest desertseatingoceans]

Sometimes. I'm Chinese and Vietnamese so most people don't guess both. They guess one or the either. I'm been mistaken for Japanese, Korean and Flip. Most people don't know that there are other Asian ethnic backgrounds besides those four. So I've never been mistaken for being Laos, Singapore etc.

[Guest i n c _ m p l e t e]

Most people can tell I'm Chinese. I've been mistaken as Vietnamese and Japanese though.
