[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are missing a key point here. Self identification and identification by others can be different. How a hapa kid self-identifies is likely to be based on how much exposure they get to their Asian heritage. If they feel culturally Korean or whatever, they'll likely identify as at least being part Korean. How they look (phenotype) will determine how others identify them. [/quote] How other people identify them doesn't matter, and can be completely false. [/quote] You are clueless. Of course it matters. I'm living it every day. It doesn't matter how I see myself, if I have to suffer the negatives of peoples' biases towards the race they see me as. Do you think a guy who identifies as white but gets pulled over by a cop who thinks he is black and driving in a white neighborhood is not affected by how others see him? [/quote]
