Have you been told you look like you're from another country, which is nothing like your own?

All you white people look alike (jk). I’m bi-racial (white and Mexican), but I get a lot of people thinking I’m Armenian or Persian. It doesn’t bother me, but its funny to see peoples’ reactions when you tell them what you actually are.

i have gone into BP gas stations and other places where arabs are owners and they ask me where i am from. i’ve been told i look puerto rican and arab. one close friend says i look like a cuban soccer player.

i am black.

I have been accused of looking like I am from a specific religious group many many times. not my religion.

No.

I’ve been told I look like an alien!

@Babo That’s calumny, Babo. You look like a dream!

A good dream, I hope!

@B Of course!

yes, i am mexican and costa rican and i get really dark which comes from my costa rican side but some people would ask if i were african american. but some people ask where im from when i speak spanish because costa rican spanish is different from mexican. i guess its more proper.

Stop telling me I’m Swedish!! I’m a brit with a Spanish great grandmother.

I mean, a Britano-American.

Sure, but that’s usually because they don’t know my country or what the people there look like.

I’m from the US, but I lived in Spain for year- everyone there thought I was French.

When I lived in France, people thought I was from England or Scotland.

I’m 3/4 Scottish and look it.. I got asked for directions in Edinburgh a few times.
