What ethnic am I?!


Question:

What ethnic am I?


Okay so I was born in Brazil, so does my mom but my dad is born in Middle East. However, my mom is a Middle Eastern descents so I guess that makes me one too. But like I really consider myself half-half. I can speak Portuguese but not Arabic, I have relatives living from both places, and I guess you can say I experience both culture equally.

So like next time when I fill a form and they ask me for my ethnic, should I say I'm Latino or Middle Eastern?
and sometimes they don't provide Middle Eastern, so should I say I'm asian since Middle East is part of Asia?

upz i mean "u" got it mixed up lol If you really want a ethnic classification, I would consider you Middle Eastern since your family is primarily Middle Eastern.

Your nationality would be Brazilian.

Big difference between nationality and ethnicity. Nationality is country you call home while ethnicity has to do with ancestry.

I had a roommate who's family was from India, but he was born in Kenya. He considered himself Kenyan, but he was too embarrassed to be considered Indian. Tell them you're human and if they insist on ethnicity, ask them to go F%^$ themselves. You are a CARIOCA! Also, probably GORGEOUS, what a beautiful mix! You are a true Brazilian! I'm not sure what this has to do with food and drink, but I would go with "Other". GO MIDDLE EAST!!!!
oh and you are middle eastern, and you nationality is brazilian. oh and its ethnicity lol ur not latino brazil isnt spanish any wayz ur a brazilion but ur also a middle eastern decendent I think you mean ethnicity. Just check the box that says "other." Personally, I was born in the former Yugoslavia to a German mother and Lebanese father but I grew up in Canada and have a Canadian passport and when I asked I say proudly that I am Canadian. ethnicity pertains to your ancestry or where you originally are from or to put it bluntly...the blood that flows in your veins. where you live is your nationality. so your ethnicity is middle eastern and your nationality is Brazilian. got it?
