i believe that for many centuries, jews were considered to be asians. DO NOT ASK ME WHY. however, i really thought that in this age of ultra-communication (more than we need, sometimes) that belief would have vanished like the dodo. i was as surprised as you to find that my dh was married to an asian. btw, so was he :lol: :lol:
