[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We lived there for a few years - [b] despite clearly being together (both wearing rings so presumably people knew we were married) were always given separate checks because we were a mixed race couple. [/b]  If we went out with a similarly mixed race couple they always put the same race people on one bill.  Got out shortly after Trump was elected.

Ok, I saw this old thread yesterday while searching for things to do in Raleigh this weekend since we are here for a wedding… I have been here about five hours and something similar has already happened twice. (1) hotel asked whether I was Mrs.— or not upon check-in “because I never want to assume,” and (2) we were asked if we wanted separate checks after a leisurely off-peak lunch at a brewery, just the two of us. We are wearing wedding rings, have American accents, are similar in age, and dress in a normal boring preppy/conventional way. We have been together almost fifteen years, have kids (not traveling with us), and literally everywhere else we have ever been in the US and abroad, it is very obvious to others around us that we are together without anyone having to ask.
