Why are Brazilians, Pacific Islanders, Dominicans, and Costa Ricans exotic, but German, Irish,English isn't

Question

I am mixed of North African and European, I am wondering why Europeans aren't exotic. I'm not interested in them at all, I think Dominicans are exotic, why is this?

Answer 1

I think because at the time that the word Exotic was used it was in reference to a tropical place, untaimed jungle beach like area, where Germans, Irish and English were considred civilized nations and cultures.

Answer 2

Probably because these are areas of the world with little political or economic influence, and they are therefore marginalized in the general social consciousness in many ways . Most people who "count" ( and by that, I mean the inhabitants of the "first world") know very little about them or their homelands, and so they seem "strange " and "exotic"

Answer 3

The term "exotic" is relative to where you are or where you're from.
Exotic: of foreign origin or character; not native; introduced from abroad, but not fully naturalized or acclimatized: e.g.exotic foods; exotic plants.

Answer 4

It's all relative. Go to Asia and tall white guys are like gods.

Answer 5

There are more of us and less of them or something like that.
