    brown person

    Always throws me off that in the USA brown people means Mexican, especially since there's white Mexicans. In Canada it's only Indians/Pakistanis/Sri Lankans/Bangladeshis considered brown.

    The race science is built different up in the north.

      It's pretty simple for white angloids, you are white, black, or brown. That's basically it.

        I had a roommate who referred to "Orientals" once and that one threw me off because we're not British people from the 1800s smuggling heroin into China

          Oh wow.... not a ton of east Asians in the region which I live so I haven't had the joy of dealing with that species of racism.

        They should more correctly be called pink, because of all the gammon.
