It's tough to know what your ultimate background is, unless you have one of those DNA tests performed. As I said earlier, race is a lot more complicated than many think; and there's been so much inter-breading among Latin-Americans over the
centuries. In my particular case, there's a Mediterranean background with perhaps some North-African influence, but I'm certainly classifiable as white. Not all white people are milky skinned with
blond hair and blue eyes. lol
