''Blending In'' - mixed race people

[gelaye]

i will give you an example of something - when in ethiopia, a friend of mine who is mixed spanish/ssa (and looks 100% Ethiopian) was always the person people took a liking to more than myself, and who people were more willing to converse with, even though I was the one that was actually half ethiopian.....i was just called 'china' or 'japan' lol

so, i was wondering, if a mixed race person who, like myself, looked like another 'whole race' were to move to another country and completely assimilate themselves to the countries culture and language, maybe even changing their name, would they be accepted (by accepted i mean not given a second glance whether or not they were *insert nationality here*) ? i know it depends on how xenophobic the culture is.......but say for example, could i blend in JAPAN?

Maybe you should move to Latin America where there are alot of mixed race people like yourself.

[Batrus]

That's partially right. Most latinamericans won't care about your race. Especially in places like brazil where you can practically see every kind and there is a big japanese "colony" (as in peru). Although they will call you chinese or japanese. Simply becuase you look like it. Of course, not maliciously.

If you´re not Japanese and can´t even speak the language you won´t fit in. No matter what you look like. Have you asked actual Japanese people if you looked like a native Japanese?

[gelaye]

japanese people say i look like a 'haafu' (mixed japanese) there has only ever been a few japanese that think i am a pure japanese, and even then they guess I am from okinawa or I have had plastic surgery haha

I think Gelaye looks like hapa or 1/2 Japanese or even 1/2 Taiwainese and Caucasian. He looks like a hapa who is metrosexual and very chic.

I have had friends that look like Gelaye who are 1/2 Asian 1/2 Euro and they usually fared better in more blended environments.

I too b/c of my heritage tend to find myself more comfortable around Puerto Ricans since there are nearly ZERO Polynesians in my neck of the woods. I get confused as a Brazilian, Rican, Dominican, and when I was in New Orleans I was mistaken as a creole which I am not.

Over here I think I blend in with Guyanese and Trinidadian Douglas (I dont know how to pronounce that word, but I'd use that rather than Coolie which sometimes offends) pretty well

Gelaye you have a better chance of passing for a Filipino than you do a Japanese.

Probably, since Filipinos are quite diverse in phenotype and sometimes mixed.

[tonynatuzzi]

Are most Filipinos pure Mongoloids or do most of them have some non Mongoloid ancestry no matter how small.

[Funky Kong]

Would i be considered "mixed race"?

[tonynatuzzi]

By White Nationalists standards you would be considered mixed race because you have a parent who is not of European descent but by most Dodoninites standards you would not because your non European descendent parent is a Caucasoid.

What about a South European WN? Is it more about Europe itself than with actual race?

I'm not sure. However, remember that Eurasian supremacist guy called Anima Aeturnae, or something like that? I think he posted a study that said that Filipinos have on average 9% non-Mongoloid admixture. Though how evenly spread out that 9% is, I don't know.

It seems to me that European WNs (both Northern and Southern) care more about nationality than American ones. They don't even want whites of other nations in their countries often times. I think that the only WNs that would consider you one of them would be the Pan-Aryan types.
