Where is the Middle-Eastern option? Where is the Native American option? Where's the Pacific Islander option?
 
Pure blooded European here, woot. Bits and pieces from Ireland, Poland, Britan, etc. I'm very pale, and blonde, lol.

So I guess I'm white? o.O

The perils of race threads. Too many options, people get offended. Too few, people get offended. It's hard to find that balance.

Race: human. The correct term you are looking for is ethnicity.

Actually no, the correct term IS race. Humanity is a species. Please do not try forcing political correctness here, thank you.

Sorry no, ethnicity is the correct term... For example my race is human. My ethnicity is vietnamese, however my nationality is American. You're welcome.
 
Native American, but I guess that isn't up there.

"Race is a classification system used to categorize humans into large and distinct populations or groups by anatomical, cultural, ethnic, genetic, geographical, historical, linguistic, religious, and/or social affiliation"

Doesn't seem like it to me

Read the whole article; if you just bothered to read 3 paragraphs down this source you would see that your own source supports what I have been saying...
