i come from.georgia and i am familiar with what they look like.. he looks foreign for georgia and he would look even more foreign for armenia and azerbaijan
of course you know georgia better than me but if he cannot pass in georgia and it’s impossible that means all people in georgia have black hair or something. :DD i’m not saying he would be a typical but atypically he can pass. i saw many azeri people before sure he doesn’t look azeri but for example i saw an azeri guy from tiktok somewhat resemble to him.

“not passable” is just nonsense to me.

it is not about pigmentation. of course he is lighter than an average georgian, but his facial features look different. i am saying that he will be even more unpassable in armenia and azerbaijan because georgians are the most euro shifted west asians phenotypically and that includes pigmentation and facial features. people who look similar to him from.these countries are very atypical to begin with

before i don’t know anything about genetics, phenotypes etc. i thought georgians are like slavics and turks are obviously darker than them but after i learned some things and more aware and accept my georgian roots and after that i search about georgia etc. i think turks are more lighter than georgians as a whole. first because of balkan turks and balkan muslims (most mixed with turks) and second western turks imo slightly lighter than georgians.

but for a more objective comment, i need to go and see georgia.

i did not have turks in mind when i said west asians and since most of the focus was on Caucasus ethnicities. of course balkan turks and far western turks are lighter than georgians on average. but at the same time they are their own category and don't fit into the west asian spectrum all that much. primarily for genetical reasons as well as they are very far from the core west asia. but west asia is big anyway. "from yemen to georgia and bosphorus":D

many people in forums do

make our hair lighter brown with a tool and people will pass us different be sure of it

here is mine. dark blue represents the best passing place, medium blue represents okay passing, and light blue represents atypical

dark blue: 70-80% of the country looks similar to you typewise, medium blue: 40-50% of the country looks similar to you typewise, light blue 15-30% looks similar to you typewise
