I was at the doctors office a couple months ago holding my then newborn daughter when a lady standing in line ahead of me asked what my ethnicity was, well what she actually said was, "What are you?" which I then responded with my usual bewildered expression and response "excuse me?" because I get this question often and it never fails to amaze me that people ask me what I am and not what my ethnicity is. I told her I was Hispanic and she then looked back at my newborn child and then preceded to ask what my husbands ethnicity was. I told her he was English, German, and Irish. Her response was, "Oh, so he's American."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
