Some people asked if I was Italian or German when I was in the US. But that's it.
>>215231841When I posted my pics in "ethnicity guess" threads on soc years ago people assumed me to be Anglo or Scandi incel type. But I think they were just flattering me
>>215231841yes, pakistani and bangladeshi
>>215231841non-Euros sometimes say I look russian, but a Russian told me that's probably due to me reminding them of Drago from Rocky

>>215231841I had to go through extra security in the US embassy. (they thought I was muslim) (it's the beard)
>>215231841Yes. I'm half greek/Italian and I've been confused for being turkish and iranian before. :(
>>215231841When I was a kid, my family went on a vacation to the Bahamas, and another American family we met though we were Canadian. I have no idea why, since our accents don't sound Canadian at all.
>>215231841Was on holiday with my mum and dad in Morocco once and some bloke asked if we were German.
>>215231841Korean, japanese. Some guy at high school even told that i look like french
latinxers always come up and ask me if i speak spanish. i don’t know if it happens to everyone or they think i’m one of them because i’m tawny

>>215231841Once, when I was in Czech Republic (Brno) a local asked me and a friend of mine where are we from. We told him that we are from Bulgaria and he asked us if we were Jews. No idea why he thought that we were Jews, and just not Bulgarians.

>>215231841A big old lovable roly-poly Serb told me that I looked Czech, which is pretty objectively the case. By ancestry I'm Polish, German, Irish, Scott, English, French, Danish, in descending order of predominance. My Mom's maiden name is kind of rare, and my dad's mom's probably appears only about 30 times in the Social Security database. Yet there are are about 750 people with my exact first, middle, and last name in North America. Weird.
