Yet another poll suggested by jacob66. Do you fit the stereotypes? Obese American? Smart Asian male that's a doctor, lawyer, or engineer? Tall, athletic African American?

Warn: Banned

Referring to the stereotypes provided by Encyclopedia Dramatica, I'd say I'm representative of about a 25% of my heritage.

I am deeply atypical, in very many ways
…but I do conform to some norms of my ethnicity and nationalities, so…
I went with 25% (probably a lot less, but… not 0%, so…)

LOL this is a weird one, it reminds me of that episode of The Office where they’re playing the guess the ethnicity game 😂 I have no idea.

I guess this one can be answered easier by someone from the outside looking in, if that makes sense. Like, I'd probably misjudge just how closely I fit the stereotypes of my nationality, yet a foreigner who could know me well enough, and have at least some passing familiarity with our culture would be able to tell real quick.

That being said, maybe you can infer in a way by judging just how closely your circle of friends fit the stereotypes as well? It's not foolproof but using that, I'd say maybe I'm 50/50?

0% people always tell me I am different. My own people tell me I'm not one of them because I don't do a lot of the stuff they do, other people outside of my group tell me I act differently from the others.

i would say 75% even though latinos are kind of a little bit of this and a little bit of that, people can either tell i am latina or if i say i am one, they get it right away... 😀

I'm definitely Charisma Man
everyone wants to hear my opinion on everything
they laugh at my jokes

that's the only impression I get constantly; rose colored glasses

there's like 1% of people who see me as some Columbine kid
I guess that happens when each demographic can have several and often contrary stereotypes
