Apolo Ohno

Just a shout out for Apolo Ohno, I heard the name and thought Japanese at first but I wasn't sure (my friend's obsessed lol) but then I got an email from HAPA (I am on the list though probably the only non-harvard person on the list haha) that confirmed his hapa-ness. Yeah! Hapas owning in the olympics!!! ^_^ He was actually raised by his Japanese dad, so he probably speaks Japanese I'd think (and the article said his father didn't have a lot of family in the states, making it sound like he's 1st generation) but maybe not. But anyway here he is!

Another article

I saw this and thought it was interesting, it was more about white women-black men relationships but its still multiracial relationships. Now, I haven't read all of it but I think that what I did read was about how womens menstrual cycles reflect in partner choices. I have heard of that before in attractiveness services - like choosing a more masculine or feminine face depending on the cycle. I will read it more fully later but till then I will store it here :)
