Is it proper to assume I am always sad just because my people are Nordic?

Question

I am often told I look sad to which my usual response is, "I'm not sad, my people are just Nordic"? Is it proper to get questioned as often as I do?

Answer 1

Really ?  Nordic people look sad ?  I did not know.   Of course, I don't know any Nordic people other than Thor.   May be that is why he is carrying such a big hammer.

Answer 2

Well, people think I look sad, too, whenever my face is relaxed.  I don't know, people always seem to expect everyone to look "smiley" all the time.  I'm not Nordic, though, so I doubt it has anything to do with your heritage.
