    My cousing is 100% from China, but he looks like a Mexican. People (Spanish) actually try to talk to him in Spanish.

    I'm full chinese, ppl always ask if my dad's white. I dunno why they only ask about my dad...I've gotte Native American too, and I give them the o_0 look.

    Its hilarious to bust out the Cantonese when people assume you can't speak it....

    when i'm in china people always asks if i've dyed my hair or if i'm only half chinese cause my hair is almost brown..and then i go, i am 100% chinese and i haven't dyed my hair, it is water here that does that to my hair.....i get funny reactions to that...it is worse for my little bro, cause he really does look like a half chinese although it is not...(too much milk and cheese for the fellow?)

    Haha, Filipina? Really? Maybe it's because my picture is dark. I've actually never got mistaken for Filipino in person. The other day someone thought I was 1/4 White and 3/4 Japanese.

    I think the guy is referring to the original author of this thread... the guy who actually does look Hispanic.

    Ya, some Chinese people born in Vietnam look Viet.
    I can almost always tell where a certain Chinese is from just by looking at them. Ie. Chinese from HK, from Guangzhou, from Northern Mainland, CBC.
