Most Russians live in the part of Russia considered part of Europe. And of course, most Russians are white. Generally people don't refer to Russians as Asian.

Yes. Her name's Anna Tsuchiya if you wanna look her up on the interwebs.

As we speak, somewhere in Oklahoma Synbios is desperately humping on his exercise ball. :/

I'm pretty sure Indians can have hazel, green and even grey coloured eyes. Though it's more common in half and halfs.

Post by: Ichirou on November 26, 2007, 11:52:06 PM: It was the same way in the book. Just a way to set her apart from all the other geishas, logic and genetics be damned.

And Beezy, re: Memoirs of a Geisha, it's a POS, but I think we're all still reeling from the shock of Gay Boy raving about Enchanted so Geisha seems like a normal viewing choice in comparison.

Post by: xnikki118x on November 27, 2007, 02:30:01 AM: Dunno about Asian people, but from what I understand, Native Americans never naturally have blue eyes. Any blue-eyed Native American has to have Anglo/European ancestry somewhere along the line.
