Classify him and where does he pass?

And yes Skidrow, there is an Iranian look or characteristics.
  • Iranians generally have naturally straight hair, thinner lips and more pronounced jaw
  • Semites have curlier hair, very elongated hooked noses, fuller lips and weaker chins
  • Both generally have the same skin tone
This is just on average....and I mean the pure or stereotypical ones. Again, most lie in a spectrum and have other racial characteristics as well. What's wrong with pointing this shit out? 🙄

^ this is such a nonsense

ahmadinejad is not "iranic" looking . there is no such thing . he can never pass as kurdish ....but we are muh iranic . ossetians are also iranic for example . so are tajiks . there is no such thing as iranic look
Who said he passes as a Kurd hun? He looks Iranian Iranic. Passes nowhere else outside of Iran. I'd place him more close to the Pakistan border!

Aren't Kurds native to Anatolia, northern Levant and Mesopotamia? Well, they indeed have more similarities with the people there than Ahmadinjkajajad types (however you spell his stupid name)

he is not typical for an iranian either to be honest . but as i said before iran is a big country with diverse people

well we kurds are iranics . thats what i mean . so it doesnt make sense to say that he looks iranic . he can not pass as kurdish he can not pass as ossetian he can not pass as gilaki he can not pass as tajik he can not pass as talysh etc. . all of them are iranic people for example

it seems to me that when you think of "iranic" you have dark iranians with gulf and / or south asian admix in your mind . but that is nonsense

in fact we kurds are the ones you should take as a reference for iranic looks . because we dont have south asian or ssa admix

Nah I agree, he doesn't look typically Iranian as well. I'd say he looks more Afghan. And yes, Iranians are diverse as fuck.

Funny thing is some Iraqi Arabs here in Detroit, who I think are Mandeans, tend to have a look similar to his. And they're Semitic (or Semitic speakers if y'all don't like the term Semitic). So this just shows that the lines between Semites and Iranics can be blurred and how people there are all within a spectrum...
