i dont think most georgians are squinty eyed lol

you think i am "dark" skinned for georgia ? or in general ?
I mean they are more narrower, deep set eyed as tendencies goes.

Georgians, from pics, usually have white skin to just slightly olive. Some are even pale. You're not "dark in general", but they're generally lighter than you. You're more tanned to me tho...

i find the lightness obsession that many guys in forums have unmanly and ridiculous . however i have to say that i am not too dark for georgia ....surely i would be on the "swarthy" side in georgia but i am olive skinned and not even dark olive either . in fact outside under sunlight i am pretty light . maybe you should check my pics again lol

and you also talk as if i am bug eyed or something. i have almond eyes that are not bulgy

And I hate those Apricity guys obsessed with lightness. They're fucking fairies.

You're not "too dark". But it's just they can be too light rather. You have a nice tanned look and I think you should keep it. And I wouldn't drop dead if you claim to be Georgian!

You are eyes are a normal shape, neither bulgy or small. You're right in the middle.

This is the look that I affiliate with Georgians:

In the eastern part of the country his pigmentation wouldn't entirely stick out especially in kakheti. Georgians with lighter skin can be found in the western part of the country

Well I guess, but it isn't just about pigmentation. Georgians tend to have a wide short head. Look at the pic I posted of a Georgian. That's the most stereotypical Georgian male face.

I was born and raised in georgia so I know what georgians look like. The thing is that georgians have much diversity jn looks and there is no stereotypical georgian look

What stereotype? Head shape or skin colour? In Google, they're generally shown as being pretty light. Similar skin tone to mine...I guess one or two stand out as the "dark" one, but the rest are pretty light, if not "North Euro light". Some even look Russian/Slav....

Lmao he legit has hooded eyes. Totally different than your eye shape. Not that it's a bad thing?

Nobody said he has deep set eyes? I mean Georgians tend to have them. Didn't necessarily mean him.... 🤣

His eyes are mildly hooded. Severely hooded is like Leonardi DiCaprio. But hooded is hooded. What are hooded eyes to you tho? Give me examples? And I hope you won't bring up a bunch of Turanids Lol

To say again and to answer this thread again, I wouldn't drop dead if you say you were Georgian. But between Georgian and Cypriot Greek, I would choose the latter. ;)
