- crooked-v 6y agoAlso people of Indian descent, for whom it can sometimes be pretty annoying to get dumped into the 'Asian' bucket.
- OJFord 6y agoThat was my first thought. Probably (maybe wrong, just IME) most 'people from the Western portion of continental Asia' don't see themselves (I suppose we say 'self-identify' now) as 'Asian'. Similarly to we Britons speaking of 'Europe' and particularly 'Europeans' with the 'continental' implied - and even that phrase not really making sense, not meaning the same as 'mainland'!
- retrac 6y agoDoesn't America have a great deal of mixed-race people (like their prior President)? Or is that not usually treated as a separate category there?
