Yes, and it's so frustrating to try to make people understand why that's insulting, most of the time. In an inequal society, why wouldn't you rather be thought of as white than Asian? Why wouldn't you be flattered to be "one of the guys?" It stuns me that so many people don't get that I'm not looking to be absorbed into the privileged group, and yet they don't.
