I don't think the categories offered are particularly effective demonstrators/classifications of ethnicity!!!

On the outside, I'm "white as the driven snow"...LOL.

But oftentimes, especially in the "real-world" (offline), I tend to identify better with more non-whites than those "of my own kind"; certainly not complaining though. Guess I don't have too many common interests with a lot of "whiteys" I deal with, esp. at my job...I'm decidedly more "urban" in my tastes than I am, "redneck" (yep, I'm in the south LOL)....

My family is northen European. My mom's mother's mother was Polish (moved to Chigago, never spoke a word of English), married to a German. Her father's family was all German.

My Dad's family was German and Alsaician (that's Alsaic/Lorrein, where Joan d'Arc was from). So I'm more than half German.

Nice. WP have replicated the results for the US in Aspie-quiz 6 & 7. Afro-Americans have consistently lower prevalence than other races. Somebody will try to explain this with the discrimination of blacks in the US, but I won't buy it Wink

Something to do with access to medical care perhaps?
