    Aussie of Asian roots. We're either a bunch of immigrants or descendants thereof or convicts. Unless you are first peoples.

    All this time I just assumed you were Asian coz of all those delicious poke bowls. My bad.

    So you're not Anglo? :oops: 

    What's LatinX? Is it like Musk's SpaceX, but with a Latino twist?

    American born in Syracuse, NY but spent the first twelve years of my life in Oklahoma City, OK before moving to Tampa, FL. Been here for close to thirty years now.

    On my mom's side of the family, we're Irish, German, and Dutch. On my dad's side, we're Italian and English. I even have our family's Coat of Arms hanging on my wall since my grandfather was able to trace his ancestry back through some side research he was doing while serving in the military during WWII. The Italian side... well it's best not to talk about what they do and are into... and unfortunately, other than lineage I don't know much about my mom's side past my grandparents.

    Nope, I'm not white. Although people do mistake me for white all the time. Some have called me the whitest Mexican they know. Latinx is just one of those terms the youth of today came up with for describing non-binary/ gender neutral Latinos.

    I can directly make a line back to Denmark. Other than that, I'd just say I'm a Northern European mutt.

    My two kids are 25% Korean, 74.9% Northern European mutt and maybe .1% Chilean...we aren't sure about that last part but my wife thinks there is a hidden Chilean woman in her ancestry. The fun part is she can trace her lineage through the British Royalty, albeit very distantly. Her grandmother's side decends from a line of knights from around the time of the Tudors.

    So basically you want people to dox themselves as well as provide personal information that make it easier to indentify them?


    Are you Mark Zuckerberg?

    :lol  You already said a mouth full! :lol  Reminds me of when grandma would say to us grandkids "eh, no names!" when telling us stories about "the family business". After a while you just learned not to ask which uncle, cousin, or whoever she was talking about. :lol

    My great grandparents are all from Russia. Some of my family were from Rome before they were forced out and had to escape to Russia. When tensions against Jews got high in Europe they left for USA before the holocaust. So, I'm a white European jew living in USA.

    As far as I know, I'm 3/8 German, 3/8 French, and 1/4 Dutch. But in the US, it really doesn't matter what kind of white you are, you're just considered white.
