Dear Friends of Japan Forum,

My results in this test: "very bad"
Obviously I have no idea.

Please make the test yourself and tell me, if you agree:

There is already an old thread from 2002 dealing with that issue.

Just redid the test and got 9 correct.

"Which of these 2nd generation english speaking New Yorkers is blah blah..." What a horribly ignorant site, made by Native New Yorkers, to imply in using a phrase typically an EPITHET against American blacks, that whitey cant tell the difference between Asians, because they "All look the same"... utter HORSE-Sh````...

All typical second generation stuff--- I can tell the difference between a Korean, a Japanese, and a Chinese person in Japan--- sorry, when they all have Jansport backpacks slung over their shoulders and go to CUNY university--- I'm at a loss.

ps. I took the test before, I think it was a seven though--- I still think that the site is ill conceived.

I scored 16 out of 18! Whoo hoo! I am american (white; um not that only whites are american, err, i hope u know wat i mean...), and on about two or three, i guessed because their face was distorted, so i guess i can tell. Tho i think a few of them were closer to vietnamese, but with the answer choices presented, i guess i know my asians
