    For those of you who don't know, kindly post a pic and the members of the greatest message board in the world will help you identify your racial background. I don't endorse ethnocasting but this is always a fun ice breaker when meeting new people.

    Vote up.

    This is part 2 in a never ending series of polls coming your way.

    My ancestors are a mixed bag of drunk Celtic fans, Nazis, Brits, and bankers.

    Just ran family tree through Ancestry.com...fascinating stuff. I married into royalty. We're a little disappointed we didn't get an invitation to the wedding.

    It's only mixed if it's interracial. Those babies are the hottest.

    It's probably because you get all preachy about religion and that drives people away from you.

    OK please explain to me the cut-off between Caucasian Hispanic and "Dark Brown" Hispanic as far as skin pigmentation.

    What about an English Breakfast Tea with milk color, if so how much milk?

    Im guessing Caramel Macchiato is going to dark.

    How about a lightly baked chocolate chip cookie dough? Only the tops, not the bottoms or I am guessing this would be considered too dark.

    Please enlighten me.

    This thread is making me hungry.

    The blue and green regions fall under Oriental/East Asian, and pink is known as South Asian or the subcontinent. I've never called anyone an Oriental and had them object.

    According to anthropology, there are only four races:

    Mongoloid (from Asia)
    Caucasoid (from Europe)
    Abariginoid (from Australia)
    Negroid (from Africa)

    To be fair, this thread is missing options for the Arab and Iranian races so it's not exactly up to par. Now let's take this young child, would you classify him as caucasian hispanic?

    That would be a grave mistake on your part and it would probably offend him.
