[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh my lord this thread is painful. “Where is your family from originally?” Not offensive. You are welcome -Indian person married to black/Korean person. [/quote] We've been over this a million times on this forum. The first question is fine. But if you don't accept that friend says California for example and elaborates that is also where parents/grandparents are from, then it becomes a problem. The go-to for people who probe like this is the dreaded "where are you [i]really[/i] from?" question. Because the questioner is insisting that you can't really be a Californian because of the way you look.[/quote]
