“How’d you get your last name?” Is almost always brought up when I say it.
I’m a second generation Mexican/Finnish mix with a strong southern accent.
Having to mark my skin color down on the paper and then having to mark Hispanic in another place is common place.
Funny how Scandinavian is never an option. I’m as much Scandinavian as Hispanic.
Racism is weird.

Lul same with my fiancee actually. She’s half salvadoreña and half Lebanese. Her last name is a Lebanese one that isn’t common but she has strong salvadoreña features with Lebanese hair, it throws people for a loop trying to figure her out. I’m just Mexican with a Spaniards last name which a lot of people in Mexico also are.
