You're telling me your family came here and refused to procreate with anyone that isn't 100% Scottish?
no. I am also welsh and German. and possibly a little Czech and French maybe. but I always identified with the scottish
You know what intrigues me? (This is a secondary topic).
I find it odd how white Americans (I am one of those too, BTW) can claim to be any specific ethnicity they identify with and can trace some % of DNA to (e.g. Jim O'Connor can say he is Irish because his grand grand grand father was Irish and/or 23andMe told him he is 20% Irish) while other people can't. For example, a Colombian who's 50% Spaniard as per 23andMe, or who has a Spanish grand-grandfather could not get away with saying "I am Spanish".
who says they can't? if they have a Great Grandfather from Spain, they can call themselves Spanish. hell, they probably look it too. Spanish are white. there are different kinds of people in mexico and south america. they have words for them, but I don't know them. but it's like 3 people types.
pure native
mixture of native and spainard
pure spainard
there are white mexicans
What percentage of a specific ethnicity does it take for someone to be able to call themselves such? Say 23andme or ancestryDNA say somebody is 90% French, is that enough? What about 60%? 40%? 20%?
