haha this might be the stupidest question ever, 
but my wifes hawaiian, and my kids are half-hawaiian. and they're eyes look asian-ish. but my wife knows very little about her origins other than her (departed) grandparents grew up in hawaii. my wife and her moms side of the family look more asian(light skin) than as my bro who live there refers to as "Pogs" the (dark skinned) polenisians. does anyone know anything about this sorta thing or am i retarded? i dont even know if i should be talking about this cuz someone might find this racist of sorts.. hahaha and im asking here cuz.. well... damn..... alot of yall are asian..
it just never dawned on me that my wife and kids are asian-ish of some sorts maybe...
