No one ever guess my ethnicity. Everyone assumes I am Italian if not Greek (when they hear my maiden name) - sometimes I get Jewish or PR or Brazilian. I am none of them. My dad is Lithuanian (but born in Germany) and my mom is a mix but mostly French and English. No one ever guesses any of them.



I always thought you were Italian, Denise! Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm Irish and look it.



hehe - I knew I would catch someone here on this. I am only married to an Italian! People never believe me when I say I am 0% Italian! Chat Icon Chat Icon

And I did think you were Irish!

I guess I'm the stereotypical Irish girl - red hair, blue eyes and very fair skin - but I am contstantly approached by the Orthodox jews when they are in the city around their holiday. I just had my first piece of babka cake yesterday and I would be prepared to convert for that aloneChat Icon

I am 100% puerto rican and I always get asked if I'm from the middle east. My dad always gets that too, so I know why people are always asking me that.

I am German, english, sweedish, irish and hungarian.

I look Polish and people actually speak polish to me on the streets. My (step)father is polish and I grew up with all of the traditions, but it is not in my blood.

I'm a true mutt - Israeli, Romanian, German, and Russian.

Because I get really really dark in the summer - people usually think I'm Italian or Spanish. I've also heard Middle Eastern (so they're kinda close), Greek, Morrocan...all the dark-skinned lovely ladies!

I don't think I've ever been told that I look like any specific ethnicity, although I have gotten, "you don't look Jewish".

I'm a lot. I'm Irish, English, French, Italian (northern) Hungarian, Czech and Lebanese. I've got light hair, light skin, freckles and green eyes. But I tan. My mom's side of the family is dark, dark, dark!!! I get French and Irish mostly, which is accurate.
