This is in no means a racist question. I just want to know what you all think. I am at Virginia Tech and there are a lot of Indian, Pakistani, Chineese, etc. people here. I can differentiate between Japanese and Korean people but the rest really look alike. Especially Indian people. Again, I am not being racist, I just think they all look the same :confused: Or is it me?

It's the ethinicity that you're not familiar with, whichever that is. Hang around with them long enough, you'll begin to differentiate between different people.

You just don't live in an area with different species, then. ;)

I know a Chinese guy who thinks white people all look alike.

It just depends on who you are used to being around.

North Koreans and South Koreans look extremely similar :)



j/k anyways, yes, it is difficult to differenitiate them all, some ppl can tell Puerto Rican from a Haitian, I can't tell a German from a Pole, while I can probably tell a South Korean from a Chinese living in Beijing.


speaking of which, any one has the webpage where it shows 15 sets of Asian guys and girls photos and ask the user to differentiate which one is Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.
I got like 75% and committed seppuku :( :)

Another vote for Americans and Canadians, or Americans and whatever since Americans look pretty much like everyone.
