Yes indeed, my father was a white Chicago man, my mother a Pakistani. I was born there, my family fled across to India, and we came to America years later, long story short.


That's cool. I've got some Pakistan in my bloodline too. :)

Along with Persia and Turkey though. My family is full of interracial marriages, so I have relatives from all over.
