A random conversation
My doctor: so what mixture are you?
Me: blank look
My doctor: like, what is are your origins? You're mixed, right?
Me: white/European
My doctor (incredulous): but aren't you part Asian? Like Japanese?
Me: nope.
My doctor: but surely you've heard that before haven't you?
Me: all my life.
My doctor: I just thought maybe the reason you are volunteering with teaching english to international kids is because you were part Asian.
Me: no. As a gay person I know what it's like to face a certain amount of discrimination, and I could focus on that, but these kids face harsher discrimination and I want to make sure they have the means to speak and speak up for themselves.
My doctor: are you Buddhist?
Me: no
My doctor: that sounds Buddhist
