[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an Asian-American mom of ES kids.  I was born in the Midwestern US.  I had more non-Asian friends than Asian-American friends my entire life and married a non-Asian.  Since being a mom, I feel really left out of the mom social scene, despite my best efforts to be involved.  I always figured it was something about me as an individual but, on DCUM, I see there is a lot of negativity towards and stereotyping of Asians.  I don't know if this is actually common in real life in the DC area.  I am shocked by the attitude because part of what I like about this area is the diversity.

My question is whether you feel less comfortable befriending someone who is non-white, or specifically of Asian origin, than you do someone who is white.

This is an anonymous forum, so please be honest.[/quote]

Why is this addressed to "upper middle class?"

methinks you might be a tad bit of a snob .. . [/quote]

Not a snob.  This is the area I live in so these are the people I most often encounter.  [/quote]
