you could pass in south asia imo. mostly in pak kpk regipn (pak pashtun area), but i wouldnt be too shocked with you passing in punjab/NW south asia or himalayan region/nepal either. you dont give any other region vibes though in south asia

I don't look Latino. and latinos are mostly mixed race. What do you think I can pass as other than latino? please be objective
Idk man, you do look Latino to me and at least in the US where there's a huge population you could easily pass among them, I don't know if you've ever been to the states but you should definitely visit. Other than Latino I think you can pass for Iranian and Afghan, I can also see you passing for Iraqi (Kurd, Arab and Assyrian). Anyways this is just my opinion, no offense.

I get these answers mostly. Do you think I am typical in these countries?
Definitely not in India, maybe Kashmir but I don't consider it India. As for Pakistan, only the western parts near Iran and Afghanistan, I think I've told you before that you could pass for Pakhtun. I also know some Baloch who have your nose shape and skin tone but I don't think you pass for one..

Are you familiar with what people in the india region look like?
Depends on the region in India but yes there are a lot of indians in America so of course I'm familiar and Pakistanis grow up watching cricket and bollywood so I'm aware of the phenotypic variation in India.

i advice anybody to look at this conversation of OP and me who think he would be typical for Kurds . he is not :


and there is nothing wrong with it . he is still Kurdish (but he is 1/8 arab btw. . just for the record) . but he is very atypical . just check out the thousands of Kurds i posted in galleries . he looks different very obviously

but i want to add that a guy on TA said that he looks Kurdish + Baloch mix . i fully agree !!! . that is a very nice passification of him .

Kurdish + Bandari might also work

very nice

idk why i could see him sort of as a punjabi too though. like a khatri or something. regions outside the northwest i dont see him passing, but i could see him passing best in pashtun areas, but also somewhat uncommon but still passeable in punjab and surrounding areas.

i can see him pass atypically as kashmiri or something

and as i said he is very atypical for a Kurd and he himself says that he doesnt look Kurdish and that he has never seen a Kurd like himself (which would be an exeggeration but you get the point)

but saying he "looks south asian " is not correct

this is a crowd from NORTH pakistan . https://up.picr.de/44443174xi.jpeg?rand=1664495945

he doesnt fit among them even

i think tukuti looks like a mix of Kurdish + Bandari or something . will probably pass best somewhere in southwest iran
