Not to mention, there are some (like myself) that turn out looking totally ambiguous or nothing at all like their parents' eternities. I half Asian, half European; I get a variety of different assumptions about my background, but the most common is Native American.

So, it kinda bugs me when people say to mixed people "you are what you look like", because I know nothing about Native Americans or their culture or anything. Not only that, there a tons of Native Americans who look 'whiter' than I do, and it's really unfair for people to deny them their identity just because they don't fit a stereotypical image of a Native American should look like.

Not saying you think this way, it's just some attitudes I've encountered before.

No, I get that. Basically the moment that a population starts mixing in significant numbers you don't have one-size-fits-all solutions anymore. I think the best we can hope for is that in 100, 200 years people perceptions of race will just be different altogether.
