I took one of these tests. I'm caucasian, but grew up being told I had some non-caucasian blood on my father's side. I believed it, too: as a kid I'd sometimes get made fun of because I looked "part-asian." Even as an adult I get asked periodically if I'm half or part asian. My eyes aren't round, they're almond-shaped, angular and slitted. Fast forward, and I took one of those DNA tests.
I'm part East Asian. I'm mostly caucasian, but with a little bit of asian in me. Can't trace it to a specific ancestor. Wow.

Actually even the various Asian ethnicities would never call themselves that here, being much more currently migrated even one identifies themselves as their exact heritage.

I think I have finally found a commonality with you Jinx. I could not agree more. Never say never. And you never know when you have have to remove a stone in your shoe. Last thing you want is the government or what’s far far worse than the government, a private corporation, having that info on you.

My issue is what, one day, be considered a crime. As of today, going for a walk on a public beach is a crime.

I'm with CC and Jinx on this one. I thought those tests sounded cool, but I don't need anyone keeping a genetic make-up file on me. Not the government, and not some corporation either. If anything, they should be paying *US* to take the test, not the other way around.
