It's like me, I'm 'transracial.'
People look at me think and think I'm this, then I tell them where my mother is from and suddenly they think I'm that, then I tell them where my father is from and I am another 'race' yet again. Tell them the (apparent, it's sketchy) background of my great grandfather on my mother's side, and once more I'm something else according to these 'non-racists' who haven't a clue about the rules of their own racism.
When folks on the web who know me hear my voice for the first time, they can't believe it's me, bcause I don't sound like they think I should.
People are idiots.
