I knew that would get your attention!! lol

How come sometimes when you meet a person from a different culture/race, etc and you ask them "OH are you Japanese? " and then they get all angry and are like "AHHHHH!! NO!! I AM CHINESE!!" why do they get angry? its an honest mistake!! Lets say an Australian, an Italian, and an American (all white, all female) were all lined up and a white person was asked to identify each person's country of origin. 90% of them would get it wrong!! white people all look the same, I cant tell which specific country they are from and I'm white!! So its an honest mistake when people can't tell your country of origin. white people all look alike, as do every other race. Of course everyone has different unique looks, but overall ITS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to identify their country of origin 100% each and every time.
So then why do people get mad if you can't correctly identify that they are Italian and not French, Korean not Chinese, Canadian not British, etc etc?
WHY?!?
WHYYY!????????????????????
 
i am white and i can often tell chinese from japanese, korean, thai - they get mad cuz they think you think 'oh, your asian, so you're all the same.' like a white person looking at a picture of obama and eddie murphy and not being able to tell that they are 2 totally different looking ppl
 
That's not the point...

White guys seem to have this fetish for asking non whites what ethnicity they are... Something they don't do often with other whites.

Its their way of saying, you are not American, admit it ! Tell me what your REAL ethnicity is faker !

Its a silly immature attitude.

When I turn the question around, they get offended and say "I am American!" So you see these guys are not so stupid, they just like to be assholes.
 
i hate when irish and english people get offended when i accidentally mistake them for the other. there are more similarities between the irish and english than differences, if you compare them to any other group in the world.
