Physical traits like height, hair color or texure, and freckles that make others guess your nationality.

I have tan skin with curly brown hair and green eyes. People always guess either black or spanish when im really half russian and half israeli

I have light-dark skin which has people thinking that I'm either hispanic, Indian or Greek. I'm part Indian (the Native American variety).

I have tan skin, wavy redish brown hair and dark brown almost black eyes. Many people think I'm Indian but I'm actually Mexican and Polish.

So my family is ethnically very diverse. My brother and I are full Persian...so we (inc parents) have olive skin, brown eyes, dark hair. My brother's wife is Filipina and her 2 kids are half black. My son is a ginger with super fair skin and viking stature which he inherited from his from dad (whom is Puerto Rican, Mexican, Norwegian and French)So anytime we all go out as a group , people look at us with puzzled expressions and always ask who is related to who.

I have light(ish) olive skin, poofy AF black hair and grey eyes. I'm tall with legs long enough to make an octopus jealous and feet tiny enough to still wear children's sizes. People always think either middle eastern (understandable have a nice day) or half-black (less understandable but okay.). I am Irish/Burmese.

No mixture, I'm just an Ashkenazi Jew, but my hair and eyes are quite dark and I am generally middle Eastern looking and people very often think I'm Arab, Turkish, Albanian or sometimes they assume me to be Greek, Italian etc. I always find it funny and play little guessing games with people.

I once knew a girl that was japanese. Everone asked if she was Hawaiian, Spanish, or even black. She was rlly chill about it and made it a game

In the summer I get really tan and have high cheek bones people ask me if I have native American heritage. I mean my mom did look like it. She had the back hair and tan skin. And she said she was. However I know nothing about her family. Also my dad's dad was adopted his real last name was different but I could never find records of anything because I didn't know past my grandpa only his adoptive family I knew his last name before but can never find anything. My hair is a dark brown and I have blue eyes with a yellow speck in the middle, and have tan skin in the summer and an olive color in winter. My mother had back hair and if she got in the sun she got very very brown. And she had almost black eye color it was brown but very dark.

As a child, strawberry blonde hair, bright blue eyes & creamy pale skin.As a teenager, true auburn hair, dark blue eyes & what's called a peaches & cream complexion. Adult (about 30 to 45), dark brown hair with red highlights in the sun, blue eyes, normal looking skin.Now at 56, ( after chemo) brown and gray hair, blue eyes and mostly ok skin. Unless I show a picture from elementary school, no thinks I'm Irish! I don't tan. I burn & peel still. No one now believes I'm half Irish, 1/4 English, 1/4 French. My 2 sibs are dark-haired and tan great, 1 w/ blue eyes, 1w/ brown. Most think I'm just a mutt! LOL! Because of my maiden name (Italian) it really stumps them
