Scottish people live in a completely different reality were they were the victims of the British empire and not its biggest beneficiaries.

Being old doesn’t make you good at adulting.

This isn’t just an American thing. People get stereotyped all over the world. I’ve experienced a lot of it myself as a racially ambiguous person in New Zealand, Britain, Australia and America. Anywhere where people can tell the difference between different types of people people will start stereotyping and categorising.

As I’ve already brought up I’m pretty much an ethnic chameleon. Throughout my time I’ve been mistaken for a Latina, a black girl, an Arab, a dark skinned Asian and an Indian so I do have experience with what it’s like to be perceived as different groups. I’ve even been mistaken by other people in those groups.

When I was perceived as Asian I was very fetishized. A lot of people assumed I was a prostitute of some sort or a mail order bride. Same as Latina. Latin people are very fetishized so I would meet a lot of guys desperate to make their Latina fantasy come true. Some even asked me to speak in a Spanish accent for them. It was cringe but I had to take what I could get. /°~°/ When people thought of me as an Arab they would ask me why I wasn’t wearing a hijab or acting like a typical Muslim. As if all Arabs are Muslims. If not that then they would give me speeches about how hard it must be to be a liberated woman. There was also a brief time I cut my hair short for a play I was in and people through I was a lesbian so they would ask me questions about ‘what was it like to be a Muslim lesbian’ and ‘if my parents still talked to me’.

I see where you’re coming from. In America it isn’t necessarily racial hatred more just tribalism. As someone who doesn’t belong to one group this is very inconvenient to say the least. It’s better in other countries like Australia or Britian. Over there I was never singled out for having dark skin or for not being visibly white.
