Yeah, in franfhe and in certain parts of british isles those looks shouldn't be an uncommon sight.

even inneurope, expecialky as you go south dark brown hair is the norm.
so you woldn't seem exotic, unless your are east asian, amerindian, black, dark indian.
bot nowdays those are a common sight too.. so nothing of already unseen.
don't worry, do your things, and don't care about others, this is how one should live multicultural societies.
basically doing its own business.
if you wan't to hung out with native people hung out with them, if you want to keep with your own people keep with them, the latter is what i usually do. And would do if i live in new york or usa.

Morons.


Although, half the time, they mistook me as Southeast and Eastern Asian due to my somewhat slanted eyes.

Still had to put up with "Ching Chang" remarks from some of them.....Idiots.

Traveling in Eastern and Southeastern Asia not a problem since nearly all the natives have black hair....felt good not to stand out over there, to be honest.




That's quite false taking into account that Scandinavian Natives not only have black hair but somewhat slanted eyes and high cheekbones. I have Swedish family and they have high cheekbones, somewhat slanted eyes and brown hair.

I don't believe you when you said they mistreated you.

They do distinguish between Middle Easteners and Latin Mestizos because they travel a lot, most have been to Latin America. They don't give a crap about race but about education and manners.

Yeah, I mean, mestizos and Middle Easterners look pretty different. I get mistaken for one in the summertime when I don't shave my beard I was told to "go home fookin' Paki" in England the week I came back from Puerto Rico lol

Very similar to Idaho, but in Idaho natives are redhaired because Indians were originally Irish.

The Celtic haplogroup, XZ1, travelled to Idaho 30.000 years ago.

I know of an Indian (South Asian) from London. Flew into JFK airport (NYC). And the staff gave him a form in Spanish. Responded in British English: I can't understand this.

Isn't your heritage all European? I would have thought the British would have assumed you were European. You should responded to the racist comment in Spanish. American accent might also work.

Pakis are not Middle Easteners, entirely different. They don't look like Latin mestizos at all.
