When I was living in Ireland, a pakistani man in a shop thought I was pakistani as well, except I'm north african lmao.
My dad looks turkish so some people spoke to us in turkish in the street sometimes lol and then they were shocked when he said we're not turkish.
In France ( I'm from France), most white people , when they see arab looking people, (or black people with african sounding names) will ask " where are you from ?" " France" " No but like really where are you from ? " and then they'll try to guess" your " country", " are you morrocan ? are you algerian ? are you tunisian ? are you egyptian ?" Please, **** off. That's super offensive cause when they see someone who has a portuguese/italian/spanish/polish etc last name they'll say this person is french, but not me, because I'm not white enough Lol . And the fact that they never believe me when I say half of my family has blond/red hair and blue/green eyes and so they say that surely they must be berbers or half french and when I say no they say I'm wrong, OMG, how stupid of them.
