Well, I find people use that term when the don't like something else that you have said. As a teacher I have that phrase thrown at me well....at least 10 times during the school year when in fact I am part of the small minority of caucasian teachers here. I end of saying..."yes I am racist against stupidity and ignorance (unknowing). If you fall into one of those two groups (no other descriptor needed because I am not referring to ethinicity), realize I WILL treat you differently." And basically you can figure someone calling you racist for identifying your ethnic background is doing so out of their own insecurity and their own sense of low self esteem. (Unless you called them by a non politically correct slang term)

No u cant be accused just because u gave ur description... fight for ur rights... people like to exaggerate too much when someone says he or she is white... they should understand that some people are not being racist here

Of course you're not racist, unfortunately some people don't let other people speak their mind. This is supposed to be a free country but we are becoming prisoners of our own ineffectual government. Free speech - forget it..... oh by the way It's the next thing on the Chancellors Tax list!!!!!

I think it was more the " you Asians against white" ( contrasting the two races) part, it was a joke, but some people get offended more easily than others, and you have to be really careful when posting on Internet

Welcome to the racism industry.
Maybe if you tried to mellow down that humiliating self description a bit, that would help. You need to get yourself into a minority group so that people will feel bad about picking on you, get a disability or develop a taste for unusual sexual practices.
I have joined a minority. I am a heterosexual white taxpayer, married to the mother of my children and working to support them. I think there's about six of us in the UK. It's quite an exclusive club.

Sweet dear that does not make you a racist, whom ever told you this was being a jerk and does not have a clue as to what a racist is.
You don't worry you pretty head about this butthead and that is all they are.
Have a marvelous day dear.

Who accused you of being racist. WSounds like a perfectly resonable statement of fact to me.

there is nothing racism in your description. perhaps a person of black and Asian accused you racist because that person was insulted by a white British. leave it

Who accused you? That doesn't make sense. I mean you were just describing yourself. That doesn't make you a racist.

I don't believe anyone would call you racist simply because you described you nationality, unless you followed it up by saying "There ain't no black,in the union jack"
