Hey Yall!

A while back, I saw a lecture regarding the misuse of white passing when people mean white presenting. I've been using "white passing" most of my life, so was not even aware of the term "white presenting".

Apparently:

White Passing = Being mixed and choosing to live as a white person

White Presenting = Being mixed and just looking like a white person

I haven't really seen anyone really using the term "white presenting", but in that context, that's what I identify with (half mex/half euro mutt).

Have yall heard of the difference? And if so, have yall been using whichever you identify as correct?

Thanks! And I'm super stoked on having this community of people to talk to!
