Half-Breed Angst	comment	Being a Half-Human Hybrid is tough. Aside from likely being one of a kind, they also have to deal with Half-Breed Discrimination, struggling balance both sides of their lineage, and generally feeling out of place wherever they go. Naturally, angst will ensue, complete with all sorts of identity issues. May overlap with Half-Breed Discrimination, which is about how other people treat them. See also Freakiness Shame.

Half-Breed Angst / int_10175749	comment	Aquaman (2018): Orm and the elite of Atlantis look down on Arthur because he is half-Atlantean/half-human. Unable to cope with his mother leaving the family to return to Atlantis, Arthur himself rejects his Atlantean heritage, preferring to identify as human, refusing to visit Atlantis, and rejecting his birth right despite all attempts to persuade him to do otherwise.

Half-Breed Angst / int_12978b8c	comment	Dash from Fractured Stars is the son of a mundane father and a Starseer mother. He grew up in a Starseer enclave where his psychic powers weren't as strong as everyone else's, thanks to his diluted genes. He left the planet to become a pilot, but now he hides his heritage from everyone else, because in most of the system, Starseers are widely hated and oppressed and seen as dangerous threats.

The fact that her brother and even her white father speak Thai better than her doesn't help either. Molly tries to immerse herself in Thai culture as much as possible to make up for this, but eventually her relatives tell her she's perfect the way she is.

Her main goal is to find and kill any of the men who might be her father (as there were exactly four white men in Japan at the time she was conceived, and she's got a list).

He had issues due to being Raised by Humans, which goes against his more violent orc instincts and since he'd never met a Token Heroic Orc before meeting his mother, he was in denial about his heritage as well.

Half-Breed Angst / int_6e1d5f36	comment	Farscape: When D'Argo is finally reunited with Ka Jothee in season 2, it's revealed that, having been born as a result of a Maligned Mixed Marriage between a Luxan and a Sebacean, Jothee has been subjected to a great deal of discrimination throughout his life, even being sold into slavery at one point. It eventually got so bad that Jothee went so far as to mutilate his face and tenkas in an attempt to erase any signs of Luxan heritage. Scorpius was conceived as part of a Scarran breeding program conducted on Sebacean prisoners and born with several chronic health disorders due to the species incompatibilities; Sebaceans can't stand high temperatures, while Scarrans thrive in it. As a result, Scorpius spent his youth being horribly abused for his "Sebacean weakness" before finally breaking out of captivity, fitting himself with an internal coolant system to control his condition, and seeking information on his parents out of a desperate need to find out "who I should be." As an adult, he deliberately conceals as much of his Scarran nature as possible — keeping his voice high-pitched, suppressing his temper, avoiding the use of his Super-Strength — and often appears embarrassed whenever he loses control.

This is all despite the fact that being a Branded means virtually nothing.

It says something that the only people she seems truly comfortable around are Kira, a former Bajoran freedom fighter, and Garak, an exiled Cardassian.

Half-Breed Angst / int_76c6fb6f	comment	Beastars: After myriad veiled hints, it's revealed that the reason why Legosi has been estranged from his grandfather, who helped raise him, is because of shame Legosi feels over being the result of an interspecies marriage. Though his negative feelings for his grandfather seem to have to do more with his mother killing herself when she grew scales all over her body than for his mixed heritage, and he has made efforts to reconcile with him later on. Leano was a mix between a Komodo Dragon and a Grey Wolf, and while she looked predominantly like a wolf, she began to grow scales, show more reptilian features, and acquire her father's natural poison. She was so afraid of the future of her children that she deliberately sought out another wolf so her kid wouldn't have to suffer as she did, and later killed herself. Melon faced a lot of discrimination for being a child of a Leopard and a Gazelle, leading to him being bullied at school. On top of that, his mixed heritage leaves him unable to react to strong sensations, particularly taste, since his carnivorous and herbivorous palates conflict with one another. The realization that he feels like he's broken as an animal, in addition to learning that his mother didn't see him as either predator or prey but refused to openly acknowledge it, made him snap and become the monster he is at present.

She usually doesn't mind, but some episodes have her angsting, such as in "Haven" when she doesn't want an Arranged Marriage despite it being the Betazoid way and in "The Loss" when her powers go away and she wonders if this is what it's like being fully human. Alexander Rozhenko is a young boy who is three-quarters Klingon and one-quarter human, so he often has trouble deciding whether to have a Klingon culture or a human one. K'Ehleyr was a lady who was half-human and half-Klingon. She hated Klingon culture and tried to suppress her anger whenever she got angry for fear of seeming "too Klingon" because Klingons are infamous in-universe for being aggro.
