What am I exactly??

Question

I'm over half portugese but my only other culture is Italian does that still make me considered white or caucasian

I have darker skin and I am constantly asked if I am spanish plus my father always has told me that I am half white

I look like my avatar just little bit darker.

Answer 1

porgualian?

and, if your skin is a darkish olive like in your avatar, then you probably aren't considered Caucasian... you are probably closer to Spanish. oh, what am i talking about? just say your Caucasian, i dont mind, and i dont think anybody else minds, either.

America is full of people that are, say, 60% Japanese, and another 20% German, and then a bunch of other things. the important thing, is dont forget where your parents or your grandparents, or you, or your ancestors came from, tell your children, and make a family tree book, so your children can tell your children's children! dont let your family forget their heritage! my father prefers not to talk about his family, and it hurts me, because i really want to know where i came from. i want to know more about me. but i cant, and he will probably die with his secrets. i can embrace where my mother is from, but even she doesn't know her family's country of origin. she can only trace back several hundred years. and according to her, we were always in America. (we have no native American blood in our family) so it doesn't matter what you are! just don't forget it!

Answer 2

Is portugese considering something besides caucasion? I thought they were, I know Italians are. I am 1/2 Greek and 1/2 German, I have dark skin, eyes and hair but I am caucasian and call myself white.

Answer 3

I don't think it really matters. I'm 1/4 Portuguese, 1/4 Italian, 1/4 Sepharadic Jew and a 1/4 Lebanese, plus I was born in Mexico, so I'm considered Hispanic, though I don't have ot in my blood...

So I would say you're white

Answer 4

My opinion white and Caucasian are the same.
I'm Italian-American or just an American with a Italian heritage.

Like the Sweet Potato said: "I yam what I yam"

Answer 5

That, in the end, is probably up to you if you're looking to check an answer box. However, many places allow you to answer with "No Answer/Prefer to not respond" or "Biracial" nowadays. In my generally uneducated opinion on the matter, you may want to put bi/multiracial if you feel comfortable doing so. Hope this helps!

Answer 8

it is a color of skin, not nationality

Answer 10

You are your only one... singularly unique regardless of your racial or national attributes. You can always be the best, you will succeed and your color, race, nationality or even creed will not matter at all after that.
