Interesting thread.... but not definitely racist (derogatory). If this was a racist (derogatory) thread then it would've been locked and the OP banned.

Back to the racist (what's your ancestory) topic.....

What the people perceive where I'm from is different everywhere.

Thailand: Thai or Maori
Singapore: Thai or polynesian
Philippines: Filipino, Maori or polynesian
New Zealand: Maori
Australia: Maori or Hawaiian
Europe: Hawaiian
Hawaii: Filipino
In the South (USA): Mexican, American Indian, Hawaiian, or Samoan
In the West (USA): Hawaiian or Filipino... however recently, some thought I was American Indian
Northwestern USA: American Indian or Samoan
Northeast USA: Anywhere but the USA, though some think I'm American Indian

Personally, what I am is human and a citizen of this planet. My parents are of Filipino, Chinese, Portuguese, and Spanish origin. I've also been told that there is an non-asian accent to my voice, so that throws off people.
