After reading all the press about Sen. George Allen's racial slur and bullying of S.R. Sidarth, a native Virginian of South Asian decent, my husband, a native of India, said, "I'm no longer going to classify myself as South Asian or Indian. I'm Macaca."
So I asked him, "What does that make our soon to be born baby girl?"
"She's half Macaca," he said. Of course!
Half Viking, half Macaca. She'll be so confused.

After this election, I feel like saying "I'm macaca", too. And I'm not even South Asian!
