Asian Lesbian's Struggle

I believe it means to be a visible minority that is an obvious minority, such as ethnicity. To be invisible means not obvious such as sexuality.

To stick to your own kind means to associate yourself with people only of your ethnicity, sexuality, and culture. I believe people tend to stick to their own kind because they are afraid of change or of differences.

I tend to tone down my regional/locational differences. I am from a ritzy like town and whenever I say where I am from people tend to assume that I am either stuck up, a rich brat, or both. It embarrasses me that I have to explain that even though I'm from that area, I am not any of those. My family doesn't have a lot of money and I don't get what I want just because of where I am from. I usually just tell people a suburb of Chicago if they do ask where I'm from that way I can avoid the "oh you're from elmhurst, you must be rich" line I usually get.
