I once got a customer who asked me these questions in several emails after her payment was made:
Buyer: Hi, you speak Good English. You Malaysian?
Seller: *patiently* Lol. Thanks very much and yes, I'm a Malaysian.
Buyer: Ok. You Chinese?
Seller: Er.. yes, I'm a Chinese. *???*
Buyer: But your name don't sound Chinese.
Seller: Mmm hmm.. my Mom's a bit more creative when she was trying to figure out my name I guess? *-____-*
Buyer: I see. You man?
Seller: *speechless* ... No, I'm a girl. :) Thanks for the payment made.
Can you tell me what is the relevance between me the seller, items I'm selling and my nationality / race/ gender / name Chinese or not?
*FAINTS*
