My Father is Japanese and my Mother of Filipino Descent. It was always a struggle for me to be Hafu (Ainoko) is the old term for us in Japan it means love child. I never felt like I really belonged anywhere and struggled with the cultural issues that being Hafu does bring. But these days it is easier since there are so many people of mixed race . i am very reserved emotionally. I still find it funny when people ask–What are you? I usually reply I am of Genus Homo, Species, Sapien and sub species sapien–lol. People usually think I am Korean, Chinese, or Vietnamese–lol. I like being of both cultures it has brought me a different perspective on things that have served me well.
