Re: Sensitive Question re: Ethnicity
yeah, I guess they were thinking more lebanese and less yemeni.
I think the issue is that the race classification of caucasan, negroid, mongloid is way past its prime, and when they mix it with ethnicity, and try to get demographic data without proper definitions, it causes a lot of confusion.
In my experience, I had checked asian, as I was used to Asian classification in UK, but the immigration officer corrected it to white..noting that by asian annd pacific islanders they meant more japanese, chinese, and all.
In the end it is all confusing.
