Hmm. I know that the human brain tends to try to pull information from context and without much to go on, I could see what you're describing happening quite easily. As for stereotypes, from what I've read and from my own experience, white Americans (and non-white Americans) tend to treat Asians a bit differently than Latinos and blacks. For most interactions, I'm generally treated as white unless culture comes into it, presumably because Asian cultures seem so different than the U.S. experience.
