I actually get that a lot!

Others I get a lot:

I have thick, dark, curly hair therefore I must Italian, Hispanic, or Jewish! (I don't understand how they figure out these combinations but I am none of the above! I am actually of Swedish descent)

I get told that I can't really be Swedish because I don't have blue eyes or blond hair! (Really? Have you ever met a Swedish person?)

Lol that is what I would say. The only people I've ever met that were Swedish, were blue eyed/blonde haired people, or people who were born in Sweden but their parents are of Iranian descent (which apparently is a really common occurance).
