Australianess Identity (Stereotyping) (1 Viewer)

[dark_tranquility]

I realised how many people rock up and ask me where I am from.
Even though I was born and raised in Australia.

Not that I mind (sometimes I get offended) depends.

But yeah.

It's interesting and also terrible, how much stereotypes have been integrated into our way of thinking and determining a persons background or heritage.
Like I've been called all sorts of backgrounds underneath the sun in high school.

My twin doesn't get the rags on about it, but I tend to more than not >:

Do you get stereotyped because of your race or accent a lot? (is my question to k-pop source peeps)

P.s. being the tanned/bronzed steve irwin stereotype, is more problems than its worth.

well not really? Tho I think that due to my accent that people indiractly use stereotypes of russians on me. but it really isn't look based in my opinion for me.

also in germany we are so mixed with nationalities that some light jokes about countries like poland or greece can happen around peers. (like about the money problems of greece )

Well I guess racially or accent can come into it on both accounts.
With stereotyping. A lot of people thought I sounded American for some reason too. : /

not that it has anything to do with me. They just thought I was because, my street address is after California or similar too.

I'll update the question hold on guys!

I have rarely that kind of problems. I have a neutral look 🤣🤣🤣🤣

there’s been some stereotyping when I was younger “oh you must be good at math since you’re Asian never mind the work you out into your grades”, but my school now is 90% so we do say these things ironically

Some people confuse me for a Canadian, but... the city I grew up in bordered Canada, so...

 

[VillageIdiot]
