Cultural expectations taken by surprise totally bizarre

This should never happen. It happened to me around 2004 when I was trying to get my medical records from one hospital. I submitted my request forms and I included a photograph of myself taken just a couple of years earlier. I was called at home and then I remember being called again. I was asked was I the person in the photo as I spoke pretty much European-white. I said yes it was me, I am not European but of a different descent. I was so shocked.
This is not the first time I have heard of such a thing. I had cousins telling me I was only 2 percent of my parents country of origin by blood line basically. It is not important. I am a human being.
There were some issues one volume as abroad they tended in the markets quite a number and not everyone but average tones was higher than mine. To sit in some areas forces the use of protectors as you do not wish to ask them not to speak and I try and cope more with higher field exchanges.

Some may be surprised when I go places to see someone of my descent when my hobbies as well some even siblings have said boats? I have always loved it. I get ribbed on traditional meals to.

Perhaps interesting and in light jest.
