Do you still use words from your native language?

Being old doesn’t make you good at adulting.

This isn’t just an American thing. People get stereotyped all over the world. I’ve experienced a lot of it myself as a racially ambiguous person in New Zealand, Britain, Australia and America. Anywhere where people can tell the difference between different types of people people will start stereotyping and categorising.

As I’ve already brought up I’m pretty much an ethnic chameleon. Throughout my time I’ve been mistaken for a Latina, a black girl, an Arab, a dark skinned Asian and an Indian so I do have experience with what it’s like to be perceived as different groups. I’ve even been mistaken by other people in those groups.

When I was perceived as Asian I was very fetishized. A lot of people assumed I was a prostitute of some sort or a mail order bride. Same as Latina. Latin people are very fetishized so I would meet a lot of guys desperate to make their Latina fantasy come true. Some even asked me to speak in a Spanish accent for them. It was cringe but I had to take what I could get. /°~°/ When people thought of me as an Arab they would ask me why I wasn’t wearing a hijab or acting like a typical Muslim. As if all Arabs are Muslims. If not that then they would give me speeches about how hard it must be to be a liberated woman. There was also a brief time I cut my hair short for a play I was in and people through I was a lesbian so they would ask me questions about ‘what was it like to be a Muslim lesbian’ and ‘if my parents still talked to me’.

I see where you’re coming from. In America it isn’t necessarily racial hatred more just tribalism. As someone who doesn’t belong to one group this is very inconvenient to say the least. It’s better in other countries like Australia or Britian. Over there I was never singled out for having dark skin or for not being visibly white.

Nice to see somebody practicing the ancient tradition.

Did you only get in trouble with her? Surely a higher up would have been like “B1tch, that’s your job”

R u British by any chance?

Love him. He’s got to be my favourite character in all of GTA.

“Yes I remember vine”

Me

That’s oddly sweet.

Yeah sure dude, you totally did it cuz it was funny.

Same here. There not my favourite but there not as bad as people make them out to be. I mostly wear them as men like them. I did a music video a few years back as a backup dancer and I woar one underneath some sweatpants. Maybe it’s because I have histrionic personality disorder but I like to look sexy. Not like a hooker or a stripper but more in a seductive way like a belly dancer or a show girl.

Thongs aren’t uncomfortable

I’m 50/50. On one hand it’s interesting and good to know about yourself and your issues but it is a double-ended sword. I was diagnosed with ASPD a little while back among other things and while I’m glad I understand the root for a lot of my problematic traits I now also have a piece of paper that makes me look bad if I have to go to court.
