What a fascinating take on a question? In the US, it really depends on who asks me as to how I will a) answer it and b) interpret it as genuine curiosity or through an underlying lens of racism. A lot of Asian Americans ask more out of curiosity and the community aspect of it (lol so many aunties and uncles want to adopt me in their culture/community) so I am happy to oblige, and especially if it opens up more conversation where we get to learn about each other.

so nice that aunties and uncles want to adopt you into the community! I wish there's more Asian community here in Germany too.
