His dad's hair was curly and black when he was little, and I'm a blonde with straight fine hair, so my little boy has mostly straight brown.

Many users being half white is a reflection of the countries they are from. The US and Canada are majority white, and many of our users are from there.

Tbh Somali-Arab mixes are nothing better than Bantu-Arab mixes. Only worthwhile mix is Somali-White imo. That said Somali-Arab mixes are the most common by far. Even then Arab is misleading. It's 90% Yemeni, 5% Moroccan and 5% Palestinian in the diaspora. Don't you think? @Knowles

The Asian women in my life do not embody these traits. These orientalizing traits are imposed on us through the white gaze and western imagination. During my 2020 quarantine in Malaysia, I reflected deeply on my relationship to Malay womanhood. Un ami qui s'appelle Ami was quick to tease me on my Minang-ness.
