Dutch: Nothing, my Dad is so un-Dutch it's as if he grew up somewhere else. I guess then I could say that my strongest trait is from my father but not from his nationality (and mine) : Loyalty
Singaporean: I'm kiasu sometimes...

What aspects of your personality/looks/interests/etc are the most prevalent from each parents' culture? For eg. I'm half Italian half Thai. The most Italian thing about me is my love for high carb meals and my resulting figure The most Thai thing about me are my manners when I meet new people I feel you are more white in a good way from being Italian, though.. How do you manage? My most asian feature is my personality My views and personality is Japanese through and through. I guess my caucasian feature is my nose and skin color. *sniffle* Japanese and German is perfection, though. My most dominant Filipino trait is how I fret so much over others. I got my stubborness from my French side. My love of food too. ETA: I can't stand tardiness. Definitely got that from my white side. The absolute opposite of "Filipino time." Filipino and French is white. Japanese side...warlike. And like the German side discriminating. But unlike the German side the Japanese side never lets go. You must be an anime. Vietnamese side: ambitious, temperament. English side: I like Tea ;D British accent, snobbish articulations Norwegian side: Down to earth, attitudes, morale Nice.. Chinese: Shortness, cheapness, BO Aussie: Aggression, beer-gut, uncouthness Oceanic I'm with Pandy here on the Thai thing. Good manners. Even in conflict, I manage to be polite somehow. Also, there are pretty much no spicy dishes from elsewhere that will phase me. My Danish side gives me my height. And my capacity to drink like a Viking. Wiki used to have under list of Danes that the Olsen twins "have Danish heritage." It wasn't there, it was there like a day or two, and next time I remember it's gone. Chinese: dedication to my family, family is the most important thing to me. Their respect and approval is essential - also the size of my feet. they're tiny Irish: I love to drink, smoke and be very loud in pubs. I am also taller than the average Chinese girl - tallest girl on my family - I am quite curvy as well, not the average stick thin full Asian - I am an undercover football fan..... - my taste for Irish men and Irish/British/Scottish accents.....does that count? Yeah! A real 1/2 Irish 1/2 Chinese! You look really good. Never fear... there isn't any setback in being 49.9% Irish. You should do well. Why don't you marry a Chinese blond, I still wonder. British side: Sense of humour Singaporean side: Total lack of sense of humour I thought it was the other way around, usually... British side: Sense of humour Singaporean side: Total lack of sense of humour lol that is funny ;D 4 myself moluccan side : love for music...stubborn chinese side: makin money indonesian side: being late for appointments .... spending money portuguese side: passionate Real Indonesian, you must be a Pixar! In the good way. I don't know. I think being half has made me indecisive. 1/2 Eskimo 1/2 Thai There must be Eskimo with white hair, white skin, blue eyes. If you live in the US, you have European.. That must be hard. You seem like the most European person here, in the good way... ^ hahahahahahahahahaha! I can relate. I think. ? hmmm. Chinese Side: eat like a pig English side: eat pigs I thought the other way around, though. (Hm) Chinese side: Eats rice European side: Despises eating rice all the time ! I like to eat rice anytime. I eat anything. What about like Spanish rice? Polynesian-giant calves,muskles,coloring,sense of duty and pride German-um...love of smoked,cured meats,modification of my dad's insanely curly hair to just really wavy,being ridiculously short-waisted American/Californian-love of the outdoors and the 'Bakersfield sound' in country music (where my grandfather's from) short waisted..... Wow, that sounds really good 1/2 Polynesian ..1/2 German, from CA lol that is funny ;D 4 myself moluccan side : love for music...stubborn chinese side: makin money indonesian side: being late for appointments .... spending money portuguese side: passionate bahahaha well i guess then... indonesian - bein late for school, love of water/beach dutch - all the immature poo and pee jokes i find funny Swiss - love of chocolate and trying to b neutral english - ? cant think of any english traits??? my uncouthness?? chinese - even though theres hardly any chinese in me id have to say my small feet (all of my mums fam have small feet) i c the dutch (relate) my bf b swiss2 & english yet none r dutch Dutch: Nothing, my Dad is so un-Dutch it's as if he grew up somewhere else. I guess then I could say that my strongest trait is from my father but not from his nationality (and mine) : Loyalty Singaporean: I'm kiasu sometimes... aw that's sad @ the dutch Chinese side: China homerism Jewish side: Israel homerism neat strongest trait from each side Brit - stiff upper lip Chinese - moderate resistance to sunburn weakest trait from each side Brit - dust and mold allergies Chinese - poor eyesight aw - - - - - - - - ME Chinese - indifference to anything European - me!

I would have to say:
From my Asian side: My dry cleaning and martial arts skills.
From my white side: My ability to colonize other countries.

I guess being half British explains my desire to be punctual too. I never thought it was a particuarly British trait though - more generically Northern European.

Hmm, let's see... Mongolian; Full lips, big hips, I'm a natural at archery Russian: Um.. I love vodka? I really don't know much about Russia German: Small space between my eyes and brows, I put on weight easily, love chocolate Irish: I love to drink, have a superquick yet easily squelched temper, have the "Irish nose", ghostly skin, pale eyes, reddish tones in hair. I think my Irish side is dominant.

Chinese: short (though it seems a lot of Chinese ppl are getting taller), small feet, cheek bones (though that could be Native American.). My quiet temperments and my devotion to my family and my concern about their approval.
Native American: I guess my love and respect for nature and all that stuff.
Caribbean (both African and East Indian): Love for dance, soca and carnival like festivals
Scandinavian:Well they have been living in Britain and France for quite sometime so I guess they are watered down, so I'll say British, My enjoyment of pomp and ceremony and uppety-ness (I don't drink at all but I probably would've been a heavy drinker because it seems like the rest of my family have got that trait), French my liking of runny cheese, escargot and all that stuff.
