[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok not pp you are responding to but that is your opinionsomeone else might feel differently. [/quote] True, it is only one person's opinion (mine). But this feeling is very common amongst American Asians. Having known a large number of them over the 40+ years of my life, this is a common complaint. As another person pointed out, Google the topic "perpetual foreigners" and you'll fine some very erudite analysis of the problem that many American Asians feel. I've heard this complain repeatedly by thousands of American Asians. So just because it isn't universal doesn't mean that it isn't a common enough concern to just avoid grilling a person unless they offer their race or cultural heritage as a topic for conversation. I've found that those who are interested in discussing it will make it known that it's fine. If you get none of those verbal cues, then just don't ask.[/quote]
