Of course you won't be able to speak for everybody of your country, but for example if you were to ask mixed Japanese people if they feel accepted and treated as Japanese in the only country they've seen and lived in they will almost unanimously agree that Japanese society does not view "hafus" as one of them.

I remember an American cornflakes commercial gettting lots of flak for having a mixed girl with her Black father and White mother. It still seems to me that most mixed people are pushed into the Black group even when they know that that person is racially ambiguous. Of course most of these examples show up when it's people of darker skin but it's a really complicated issue allround and varies by the state you live in.
I'm sorry for your Japanese grandmother mustve been hard for her.

I can tell you for sure that mixed races and dating is very accepted over there, specially by the younger generation. Not only is Cuba filled with mulattoes(light skinned/mixed blacks), but it is very common to see interracial couples. Of course, it is not perfect, but compared to the U.S it is like a whole different world. |
Yes, I know that most of Latin America has a majority mixed population and represent a mixed culture which is why they're so accepting of interracial marriages and of mixed people. Very good on them.
