Talk:Sansei

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Definitions unclear

Question: The article as written implies that only sons of Issei couples can be Nisei and similarly for Sansei.

Is a daughter of an Issei couple not considered Nisei? Or is a daughter of a Nisei couple not considered Sansei?

Are the offspring of a couple that has one parent who is Nisei and another who is not, not considered Sansei?

I know well a number of people who fall into the categories above (a daughter of an Iisei couple, sons of a Nisei American who married a European woman he met in WW II, for example).

This needs to be clarified. As written the article seems to be sexist and possibly racist.
