Americans, what is your ethnic origin?

[Drakoblare]

So you'd ignore the woman's ancestry? If he was born in the US, he is American. Jennifer Anniston is half-Greek, but she is American, because her dad, though being ethnically Greek, was also born or grew up there and then married a non-Greek woman. Now she is seen as American, which is right.

If she identifies as American I hold no grudge. However, if I ever had to immigrate, I'd teach my kids to identify as Greeks. The woman's ancestry could (and perhaps should) influence a person's identity if it's first generation (as in, his mothers) but keeping for more generations than that, it is just confusing the bloodline. For that I believe that only the paternal identity should be kept. That's the way I see it though, if someone grows up in his mother's country of feels closer to it, it's still his choice.

Who knows by now. Family on father's side came here in 1675 from England,that leaves a long line of possible mixes. Maternally my grandfather was English and my grams was Welsh. Given that I know I can claim English and Welsh.
