Thank you OP.
Such hypocrisy. There was a thread about how blue-eyed blond kids get look-based compliments much more than others and the posters there thought the non-blonds and minorities are too sensitive. But god-forbid someone says something nice about mixed-race people.


I think the descriptor "incredibly beautiful" set people off.

I was thinking the same.
Like they are called beautiful if they have the white features with dark skin



Most black people don't have big/flat noses.

I'm black and I don't--neither does anyone in my family, except my father.
Are you AA?
Most AA are not black but mixture of white genes with black skin.

Look at Nelson Mandela and Kofi Annan. Those are black



I'm Nigerian. Both of my parents are from Nigeria.

Are you white?

OP (and others that agree),

Is it because they look less "ethnic" and more white?

Think about it an you'll see why people find the statement offensive.

Relax, you have probably been asked because she doesn't necessarily have all the features people of other races associate with Asians.

John Legend looks Korean to me. He has many features I would associate with Koreans but he's not Korean.


Really? I don't think he looks Korean at all.

Just like any other race.

You know this, right?





Almost always.
Unless they're obese or have a health condition.


There are many biracial people who look strange and health has nothing to do with it. Sometimes you get the worst of both sides and not the best.

Also this thread is offensive.

Biracial does not just refer to black+white.
