"White-washed" means something different in different communities. For example, speaking with a "polished accent" does not equate to being "white-washed" in Toronto's Chinese Canadian community. Not liking chicken feet doesn't mean that you're "white washed" either. Not being "FOBBY" ("Fresh off the Boat" or immigrant. "FOBBY" in Toronto can mean that you're very hip or way on the other side of the spectrum) does not make you white-washed. However, if you have a lot of white friends, if you don't recognize any of the Hong Kong celebs, and if many of your social orgs are predominantly white, then yes, you might be "white-washed" according to some tacky people.
