How someone looks doesn't tell you where they are from, nor their ethnicity

3. Oh, yes.

I have any number of times learned that lesson.

The stories connected to this are a tad complex, but suffice to say that every so often when I thought that someone, based on race, gender, ethnicity, or whatever, should fit into a particular box, I'd then learn that the person did not fit into that box.

While race, gender, ethnicity are important in certain ways, they are not the only things that define someone.
