=[ I was a bit ticked off because I think she looked cute and even if it's a really asiany haircut doesn't give you the right to say that she shouldn't try to be so asiany. But on the other hand, I think people should just stick to their own race ....

I can actually relate to that girl. When I cut my hair shorter and dyed it black(even though i asked for just dark brown, it turned out very black), people in my classes said I looked asian. It sounded, by the way they said it, that it was meant to be a compliment, but nonetheless they said it was an asian-y haircut. But I was thinking it was more like the early american girl haircut, kind of similar to the 20s girls. My boyfriend really likes short hair and i thought it'd be cute. I wasn't trying to get an asian haircut so it kinda made me feel weird that people kept saying i looked asian because I still look very much white XP
I can understand if I put my hair up in a jrock-ish haircut, because that's very distinctively asian. But almost all other haircuts are completely neutral when it comes to race.. and what about the asian people who like to put corn rows in their hair or grow afros? Nobody ever gives them a hard time, and rightfully so, but people always give other certain races a hard time
