| Oct 17, 2022 at 19:46 | comment | added | Robbie Goodwin | How is this about the workplace, or professionalism? If you want the Posted detail to be relevant, might it matter that you didn't use the English forms "… a personal question" or "… personal questions"? Isn't that partly why people ask about your origin? What d'you see as wrong, there? Isn't the real Question not whether that should lead to a conversation, but why you don't want that? Visiting 20-odd countries, I've been proud to explain my heritage. Why are you not? Why does "the world as it is these days" not make you proud of your heritage? | |

| Oct 17, 2022 at 8:51 | comment | added | Tristan | some of the answers talk about people being sympathetic to not wanting to talk about politics at work. Ime the extent to which this applies varies between countries. What country is your new job based in, as this may affect which option works the best | |
| Oct 17, 2022 at 2:48 | comment | added | Basil Bourque | This Question could be a bit more clear about whether you want to (a) avoid disclosing your place of birth, or (b) avoid follow-up questions & conversation about that country of birth. After having read through the Answers, they seem to vary in their interpretation of which is your actual intent. This leads to a lack of a satisfyingly focused Answer. | |
