    I get told all the time I’m not Hispanic because I’m white.

    Its not my fault a white Brit knocked up my Costa Rican grandma. And my grandma certainly cultured me while she was alive.

    So I just say I’m a white Hispanic to clear the confusion.

      I’m half Mexican half Finnish. Strange mix. Pure white.

      I understand the hardship

      Random people do not think my father is my father.

      I’ve been stopped multiple times by police walking with him to make sure I was okay when I was a kid. All good, just walking around the neighborhood with my dad lol.

      Edit: It’s also funny growing up people asking me who our gardener was. Also my dad.
