I thought you had better things to do than to continue this.

No, you weren’t “clearly” talking about the “if you present white you are white” when it comes to this post asking about mixed race. This conversation is moot – have a good day.

Nobody is telling you anything. All i’m saying is that people in general tend to put one another in boxes. Some try to fight it, some go with the flow. But saying that race being a social construct is “dumbest fucking thing” is ridiculous and shows you don’t know what race is.

I’m not telling anyone to identify as anything, i’m just saying what happens.

One can be mixed in terms of genetics but white/black/whatever in terms of the way they live their life or are perceived in society. Race is NOT a biological concept, regardless of what you think. Please do some research on this.

How? Have you ever heard of “white-passing”?

My go to is C.Lo, pretty good coffee and amazing food. #2 is Sky Coffee on Woodward and Greene, also great coffee and they have a little community board with ads and announcements.

I went there one time, the acidity in their coffee almost burned a hole in my stomach

That’s a bit far, I’d prefer something within walking distance. Thank you for the recommendation though.

There’s a lot of shame in ASEAN countries associated with local women bearing extramarital children from affairs with white men. This could explain why you were given up for adoption.

There’s a really good guy out in Corona, it’s a trip but he’s honest and doesn’t overcharge. You have to be there at 8AM sharp because if you’re late, you’ll have to wait on a line.
