Did you ever filled out a race questionnairy? Both Americans and Non-Americans

[Mortimer]

In Austria we dont have that, but I came across it online, on dating sites and similar. The last one I filled out was for "GenesforGood" its a research study by the University of Michigan, and you get a free dna test if you participate.

I checked "White&Other" but "Multiracial" would have been a good option too, to check for me.



What about you? And if you are solely of one race, of course you check that, but it gets interesting for people who have some admixture or are borderline etc. did you checked multiracial or identified with one of your ethnicities and which one was it?

In Brazil I'm obliged to filling it as "white" because I'm light-skinned

I think you have that also when you look for a job, or when you enter school, or hospital

[Argentano]

nope i have never. In my country we dont have race questions.

I think the last census actually asked us if we were native american or Black but if you werent you just dont answer that part.

Branco, Preto, Pardo, Amarelo and Indígena

White, Black, Pardo is equivallent to Mestizo I think, Yellow and Amerindian
