This is a seriously IRRITATING phenomenon that started happening in recent years (maybe due to the influx of PRCs in Sg).

Basically, any 100% Singaporean female who happens to be:
- taller than 165 cm
- fair
- not typical spaghetti+jeans style

gets mistaken for a PRC.

And how do u know someone is mistaking u for a PRC?
- super sleazy taxi drivers who keep asking u where u from, even when u've repeated a gazillion times u r born n bred in choa chu kang

- aunties always staring at u like u killed their whole families

- go hawker centre n the uncles/aunties shout at u with very gei(fake) or forced mandarin "ni yao sherrrrr merrrrrrr?"

- go takashimaya n sometimes salesgals will whisper amongst themselves "aiyer, china girl also know how to shop here ah? hahaha....."

Wah lao, really kao bei kao bu kanasai man!! This is my country too ok! I m 4th generation somemore.
If u r a Singaporean guy n this happens to ur mother, wife or sister juz coz' they happen to not look typically S'porean, how would u feel?

Anyone here ever had similar experiences?

my junior in secondary school told me she has been mistaken for PRC by some teachers when she was in Sec 1. Laughing

maybe cos her eyes are small.
