this term is used to define:
1) A
non- racist,
non ethnocentric,
non xenophobic person, who has friends from many different ethnic and religious groups and who is a fanatical proponent of multiculturalism.
2) A person who is actually proud to be bi or tri racial
person a) to his friend (at a
party): what a great
party, I heard that the organizer of this event invited so many different people because he is a Super Mario
person
b: is there anything wrong with inviting people of all races, creeds and colors to one'
s own house party? or a Super Mario in the sense of self, where one is proud to be bi-racial? i don't see anything wrong with either.
The definition also references the fact that Mario as a Nintendo character has the following multicultural,
American melting-pot characteristics : his name is Italian in origin (so he must be Roman Catholic), he was "created" in Japan and "imported" to the United States and therefore must be Japanese/
Asian, he is an ethically hard working Protestant plumber/chimney sweep by trade, he jumps further than Donovan
Bailey (he must therefore be either African-
American or from The Caribbean), he dresses in overalls like a Mexican immigrant working on a farm in the Salinas Valley, he grabs coins like a capitalist, (so Mario is by this definition living the American dream) and at the end he saves a princess who probably is virgin (when
Muslim men go to heaven, there are supposed to be according to the Koran, 72 virgin princesses waiting for them) so Mario has to be
Muslim as well. He also wears a battered old cap like some East European Jewish immigrants used to, when they came to Ellis Island at the end of the 19th century.
