They always talking about, well I have german in me. I have Irish in me. Oh well I'm mixed with dutch. Its different with black people when they say well I have indian in me, and you can tell BC of their hair texture. Or they be like I got Asian in me you can just tell their mixed with something.
But I feel like there is no point in a white person telling me what there mixed with BC you all look white, rich, tanned and robotic to me!

we're taught that white is uncool and generally hated by most other races. Of course we all wish we were mixed!

lol are you asking this cause of my questions?
well..I'll tell you why for me at least...b/c exotic is in and white isn't so as a girl, when the standard of beauty is shifting from white and fair to non-white and exotic, usually dark skin...then it makes me want to be more like what is becoming the standard of beauty...does that answer your question? But also, we (white ppl) do not all look the same to the answerer who said that, I know that's not what u said.
Oh, and about the tanned part, I am not tan at all, I;m very pale, and I don't go to the tanning salons ever bc I don't like the way it looks on me. I look orange and I'd rather look pale than look orange.

Why do you find it disturbing? You, yourself mentioned how black people say the same thing about being part Indian, etc. It is about being proud of your culture and heritage.
It seems as if you don't mind people talking about their backgrounds, it is just the white people you don't want to hear from. Either way you said there is no point in a white person telling you anything, you are already racist against them.
Ease up on your racial tensions.
BTW, I am not white, I am Hispanic-Mexican and Spanish with some Indian thrown in and proud of it.

Welcome to Yahoo Homeboi! Your questions are very funny, you have my husband cracking up.... now back to your question, because I am very tired of the ever so serious Religion and Spirituality section.
White people don't all look alike at least to themselves. My white husband says that a honky can tell the difference between a Dutchman and a limey from across a room.
Go figure, it must be the wooden shoes vs the wooden teeth.

"Why do white people always want to be mixed with something?... They always talking about, well I have german in me. I have Irish in me. Oh well I'm mixed with dutch."
That doesn't sound like a "want"; I think it's just a descriptive conversation. Try not to engage in those conversations if you're bothered by them.
It sounds like you spend too much time sitting around thinking about White people. I would bet that you spend a great deal of that time blaming "Whitey" for your shortcomings, don't you? Your comments have an undertone of "hatin'", to put it in terms that you might understand. How about you focus on getting yourself educated; getting yourself "rich"; and get yourself happy so you don't need to be bitter toward others.

I additionally observed that. some human beings continually think of that once somebody says blended that think of the two mothers and fathers a 2 distinctive racist. yet most of the attractive white human beings have blended ancestors. maximum might desire to have complete lips,curly hair, a around tip nostril, extreme high quality tanned pores and skin, a extreme high quality length butt, slender eyes, and extreme high quality hips. and those constructive components are often seen on biracial human beings or those with blended ancestors.

Is this a reverse version of 'you all look alike'?
People are inordinately proud of their heritage, regardless of what it is. You will see people with their chest poked out because an ancestor was a prince--or a pirate!
Just let it pass.

What is it about white folks that makes you have so much animosity for them….. and if you don’t want some white person telling you that they are mixed then don’t ask …..stop putting so much passion and energy into nothing…..most of everyone in our country are mixed with something else….and one last thing to that “Kelly” …How is one raised white…..

It's called heritage, sweetie. Just like not all black people are "African Americans" because they may be from St. Thomas, Jamaica, Haite, etc. Why are you so angry?

So we all look alike? ok.
And to answer your question - pride in heritage. Just like anyone else of different cultural and racial backgrounds.
