What is a Birstish-American?
British-American would be someone who has one parent who is British and one parent who is American and would likely live in the US and possibly have dual citizenship. Though his background is even more complicated than that.

Between his parents he has Irish, Italian and Palestinian ancestry and he was born in Beirut, Lebanon.
I just find him quite sexy.

I have never ever known anyone to use this terminology for themselves or any group of people.
 
Well then that settles it then, doesn't it?
It couldn't possibly exist if you've never heard of it before.
Since, many of British citizens consider the USA as the colonies, then it's strange for them to put Britsh before American. It's somewhat reductive. Again, it isn't popular.

He was born in Beirut, so...
I had already mentioned that. Though where you're born doesn't necessarily mean anything.

He grew up in Ohio, studied in London and started his acting career on the London stage.
Because his mother is British, he is also a dual citizen ... thus British-American.

It's so odd that you're making such a big deal of how someone labels themselves.

It's odd that you wanted to bring up a post from last year. Where a person is born is usually considered their original citizenship, unless born on a military base with parents not from that country. I would think he would three passports.The OP didn't bother to answer so I moved on.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

You're not the thread monitor, so you don't get to determine when a conversation is over. And when you're wrong on so many points, it will get replied to.

First off, I just found the thread and there is only 2 pages, so I read all of it, saw something and answered it. I didn't notice how long ago the post was made, it really didn't matter.

And you're wrong about original citizenship. Where a person is born is not usually considered their original citizenship. Only in countries where citizenship is determined 'jus soli' is citizenship determined by where you are born and that is mostly in countries in the Americas. It is not like this in Lebanon (or Europe).

Most other countries , citizenship is determined 'jus sanguinis' ... or by blood. Which means he had British citizenship at birth (via his mother). His parents had to file a form reporting the birth abroad to properly register him as a citizen from birth for his US citizenship. He has no Lebanese citizenship.

It is so odd how people around here argue how others describe themselves.
