What is your nationality?

I'd like to see what the nationality is of the typical Maxima enthusiast.

American, like everyone else who was born in the USA.

Did you mean "what's your race?"

Yes, if you want to get technical. "Nationality" sounded a little more P.C., although I knew it was wrong. I didn't want to be accused of being a KKK member or anything.

I didn't want to be **** and correct him but since someone else pointed it out, I feel better

He obviously meant race by looking at the poll's options.

Okay, okay. You caught me. I hate black people. That's why I did it.

I took a race/ethnicity course a few years ago in college. It actually said that this is the order of preference for what a poll of black people preferred to be called.

1. Black
2. African American (or Afro-American)
3. Colored
4. Negro

Technically I was being as politically correct as possible.

But my bad on the "nationality" thing. I should've just left "race" where I had it.

Oh, and "Latino" does not necessarily include Mexicans. "Hispanic" encompasses everyone.

I knew this was going to happen.

asu,

I apologize for starting it, but you wanna know why? Because I'm white and one of my first interractions here was with "brown kids" (their words, not mine) who were hassled by the police and were screaming racism. I tried to point out that their story included things like "I was leaning in a car parked on the street in front of my house and the neighbor thought it was a drug deal so he called the cops." But they still thought the police searching their car made the cops (and me for defending them) racists.

So again, I'm sorry I dragged the thread off this way, but I and many "whites" are a little touchy about identifying race for fear of being called a racist by default.

That said... I voted 'other'

I honestly didn't think anyone would call me on the "nationality" thing and it would be a safe card to play......guess not.

So with that said, what RACE are you?

- Caucasian
- Hispanic/Latino
- Asian (NOT Oriental- I'm not THAT dumb)
- African American
- Other

OKAY!!>!>>!>!>!!?!??! Is everyone happy? Kill whitey!

Why is everyone being so touchy? We are one big happy family and Asu just wants to know where we're all from, that's it.

Wow Asu, I told you we think alike. Just yesterday I was thinking about posting this exact same poll, trying to find out everyone's ethnicity. And today on the forum, I find your poll!! Amazing. Long lost brother? I didn't post because I didn't want people to think I was a racist or anything. I was just curious because I do notice a lot of Maxima drivers in Houston are black.

I'm yellow, so that might rule out us being bros.

I was born in Poland but now US citizen. I still consider myself more Polish than American though.
