I’m half Pakistani but no one knows this about me, but recently I kind of want to know more about that side of me but idk where to start
Grew up in the UK I’m half Latino half Pakistani, my dad was absent my whole life and to be honest I don’t even know his name. I only know his first name but doesn’t really help much because it’s a common Muslim name, growing up I used to always be ashamed of being half Pakistani icl mostly because we always seem to be the but of jokes or people used to always make fun of South Asians
So because of this and the fact that I didn’t grow up in the culture at all made me never identify with this side of me, I only ever really identified as Latino and fully Latino, the only people that know I’m half Pakistani is my family not even my close friends or girlfriend know,
But now I feel like I’m at the point where I’m more open to accept the fact and be open about it, but I don’t even know where to begin. I’ve been lying about this for my whole life, I don’t even know which Pakistani ethnic group I belong to, I don’t know a single-family member from the Pakistani side
And I know this might not be the place for it, but I’m wondering if you guys could just help me out and where to basically start?
I’ve also attached a photo of myself and I’m wondering if you guys saw me would you be able to tell that I’m half Pakistani? also might be a bit weird but based off looks alone could you guys be able to maybe tell what ethnic group I’d be part of
