[quote=GUESTNAYO,299371]Hi,

My husband's family is from Toysan China. I'm Afro-Jamaican (Black) with a dark complexion though many people think I'm South Indian or Brazilian I guess its my hair, its wavy, thick and long. My husband and I will travel to Toysan together to see some of his family. While we have many Chinese people in Jamaica where marriages between Chinese men and black women are extremely common I have wondered how we may be recieved in Toysan.  I've lived in Taiwan for a couple of years and for the most part that was fine however its not Mainland China and the culture for the most part is different in many respects. In Taiwan few people know where the Caribbean let along Jamaica. Because I speak English with bit of an island accent I was often mistaken for south Asian from India or Malaysia. We have a lovely baby boy who mostly looks like his father and nothing like me is sometimes a point of curious stares and questions.  When we are all out as a family it is not unusual for someone to ask if my baby is adopted or if I am his babysitter or his step mother.  I used to be so insulted and would insist my child obviously resembled me. But he really doesn't look much at all like me.  My husband obviously never gets those sort of questions ever.  What are peoples attitudes about mixed children. Any suggestions anyone? Thanks[/quote]
