How often are you randomly mistaken for another nationality?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) June 14th, 2011

Are you Honduran but are mistaken for Mexican, Swedish but get mistaken right off for German, or Chinese and assumed to be Japanese, or maybe you are from Yemen and are believe out the gate to be Iraqi? Do you find people by your looks quickly pigeon holing you into a nationality you are not because you appear close to them? Should people automatically know or be able to tell? When it happens do you educated them, get annoyed or just ignore it and press on?
