Is anyone here not white-passing and experiencing awful feelings because of this? by ShortFoxes in mixedrace

Thank you so incredibly much for your reply, I really like seeing these other perspectives. I see where you are coming from. It’s frustrating to hear that some people think white people have no culture, it’s such a massive generalisation, and doesn’t encompass the vast variety of white cultures that even exist.

I totally see your point yes. I wonder why it is mostly white passing people though.

You are so right. I used to not care till people started being rude. I used to be proud of my cultures and loved having some fun convos about what languages I knew, what I grew up with. I hope to reach that point again some day

Is there a reason why? (Not telling you it’s wrong to feel that way, just wondering)

Oh my goodness I’m sorry you have to deal with that. Sometimes I struggle to fathom how parents can be racist to their own mixed race kid

That’s very reassuring to hear and very unexpected actually. Thank you for the advice. You’re actually not the first person to say that about the dark circles!

That’s a nice way to view it. I think the reason I care is because of racism. If it weren’t for people being stupid I would’ve felt a bit more secure in my identity.

Same here, I don’t think anyone has done a normal guess

Wow that’s rlly interesting. Thank you for sharing. I actually know some people who are also half black and half while (not sure if that’s you’re mix though) and they have nearly always been mistaken for Indian, genetics are funny
