Asian Lesbian Struggles

An "invisible" minority is a minority that is not generally noticed or is not that common. Someone who looks white and "americanized" but has a European accent could be considered an "invisible" minority because they only sound like a minority, not by looks. "Sticking to your own kind" means associating yourself with people who are similar to you, by looks, gender, or race. I think people do this to feel comfortable with themselves. If you are around people who look and sound like you, you will not feel weird about your looks or sound. I don't think I tone down any aspect of my identity. I think that because I am "american enough" to feel comfortable in society because I blend in so well to the majority. If I had a weird accent I think I would either find friends that had the same acccent or try to lose it in order to fit in. Just because I don't hide my identity doesn't necessarially mean I wouldn't if I stood out somehow.
