wish there was a "european mutt" category
itd match me perfectly

@otakubb- sounds troubling, but i know where your coming from. i grew up in the deep south(town pop. under 900) with all its racial biased, insanely conservative, inbreded goodness. ive had the same feeling of "where the hell am i" since grade school

not hating on conservatives, i am personally, just not its extremes

I find it funny that 'Caucasians' and 'Africans' are a group unto themselves, and then we have a division between 'Chinese' 'Japanese' and 'Indians.'

Why not 'Caucasian,' 'African,' 'East Asian,' 'Southeast Asian,' etc.?

It's rather close-minded. Then again, but for the exclusion of so many racial groups, I suppose it is a fairly accurate depiction of the racial dynamics of America, so whatever.

I'm Chinese. To be more specific I'm Taiwanese, born in Taipei, Taiwan. A proud citizen of the Republic of China - TAIWAN. Also now I'm a landed immigrant of Canada.

when they do those world population census, do they count the Taiwanese as Chinese so their number is higher or not?

Yep they include the Taiwan's population in China's total population. This might be a bit outdated but here the MAJOR FIGURES OF THE 2000 POPULATION CENSUS.
Quote
China has a population of 1,295.33 million. Of which:

The total population of the 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities (excluding Jinmen and Mazu islands of Fujian Province hereafter) and of servicemen on the mainland of China was 1,265.83 million.

The population of Hong Kong SAR was 6.78 million.

The population of Macao SAR was 440 thousand.

The population of Taiwan Province and of Jinmen, Mazu and a few other islands of Fujian Province was 22.28 million.

I am from north africa. I'm muslim, and I come from an arabic culture. Does that make me a midle eastern? certainly not!
Am I african? possibly... But I get the feeling that african here is meant to say that I'd be black?
Well I'm not actually, I'm blond haired. In north africa you can find everything. All kind of people live here. After all it's the frontier between the subsaharian africa and europe.

Well anyway, for voting... I won't for now. Because I don't like voting others. And caucasian gives me the creeps. I think radical racist groups when I see that sorry.
