      I never thought I'd say this as a white-passing WoC to a white person: "I'm not explaining race to you"; cos she didn't accept I'm brown. 😂

      white-passing is great for some privilege then you hit a ceiling and realise your own community won't accept you either. 🙁

      ugh. Yeah my sister's dealt with a lot of that. Let's just say she overcompensated a bit due a while

      but like you said, learned to not bother anymore. Interestingly this would not be an issue in Mx at all...

      I wonder if it's because Mexicans understand race, culture, and ethnicity more due to not being at the pinnacle of whiteness?

      you don't think whiter=better everywhere? I think it's true here in UK. In Cyprus at school I was praised for being palest. 😑

      my point was more that they didn't exclude me from being Cypriot as much as I'm excluded from being British. (I'm both.)
