Yes, and because of my genetic makeup most people can't really figure out what I am.

As I'm very well spoken, so I've been told, people don't realize that I'm a minority.

Let's just say it means they tend to let their guard down and speak more freely around me.

The well spoken thing is a good example. When people eventually find out about my background one of the more common things I've heard is, "I would never have guessed, you speak so well"

I just laugh at them, they actually think that's a compliment, as if I'd managed to overcome some genetic defect that should render me incapable of "speaking well"
