from what i have seen on galleries i would disagree . however i have not met many lebanese in real life
I am talking about seeing them in person, I have met a lot of them in person. You can't really tell from galleries since there are large numbers of people from other Arab countries that live permanently in Lebanon like close to a million Palestinians , two million Syrians, thousands of Egyptians, Iraqi's and tourists from Gulf Arab countries.
But generally real native Lebanese are lighter considering their more Southern geographic location.

depends . if he passes as an arabid influenced lebanese then yes . otherwise no
The woman about whom I asked you if she passed as kurdish or not, what kind of Lebanese could she pass as? And btw how would you classify her?

They aren't that light in the first place and a decent amount of them have arabid traits but they have a shit ton of Caucasus BA and even Iran N related ancestry along with a decent amount of Barcin ancestry therefore it isn't that surprising that they don't look like gulf arabs on average but they are still ridiculously whitewashed

@vengeance btw i finally decided to get myself a kit so at first I decided to purchase AncestryDNA kit but the fucking system just wouldn't allow me to place the billing information etc. Moreover, I decided that I'd be 23andme kit but when I am done with the billing information and everything and when I try to place the order it tells me that an error occured in the order and takes me back to filling in the credit card information. Did this kind of error occur to you when you were purchasing the kit? Wtf should I do
