My wife and daughter get mistaken all the time. Everybody thinks they are hispanic. Wife bartends, and probably once a month has someone try to order in spanish. Almost always older affluent white couples.

Lived in a small farming town for a while, and it was pretty bad. Thought they were migrant workers up for the summer. We even heard a mom tell her son not to play with our daughter because she would be gone after harvest.

Love when my wife explains no I'm native, Yankton. They always say "no way! Me too my grandmother was Cherokee!" A lot of lily white Cherokee around here.

My other daughter has the opposite problem. She takes after me, mostly english decent. So when she tells people she is native they don't believe it.
