wr dont have iranoafghan types . if you mean west iranid I agree but the iranid type has been raped in forums and people have a distorted image of it
also we have mostly cappadocian med and pontid as med types rather than atlanto med
I doubt you would have written iranoafghan if you didnt know that these people are kurds . the saga continues I guess
Kurds are very misportrayed / mispresented in forums . people have a distorted image of kurds in their heads and think we are a gypsoid looking people which is as you can see ...nonsense . people really dont know how we look like
there are myths that kurds are south asian looking or genetically south asian influenced etc. . which is (again .....as you can see) NOT true at all . this myth is very resistant and doesnt go away for some reason .
just to inform you :there are a lot of gypsies in northern west asia including kurdish regions . there are hundreds of thousands of gypsies in kurdish regions of turkey I know this for a fact. very likely even a lot more . our gypsies are one of the most unknown gypsies on earth and their numbers are highly underestimated and many people dont even know that we have gypsies in the first place lol
and many gypsies in our regions just say that they are turkish or kurdish even though they arent . and even though most kurds dont mix with gypsies i think there are some that have mixed with them and assimilated them .
and many of the exotic looking "kurds" you see on the media are most likely either mixed people or maybe even not kurdish at all but assimilated gypsies or other people . a lot of "kurds" on media that I am seeing (most of the time not from turkey but iraq or syria) dont look kurdish to me and look very foreign
let me show you an Iraqi gedmatch result of a person who has an indian grandmother
the person comes out as kurdish + south asian . so it is fair to assume that the other 3/4 of this persons ancestry is Kurdish or mostly Kurdish
I will show you the results and then compare it with my own results and a kit number from dohuk iraqi kurdistan without indian mix
let me first show you the eurogenes k12b results of the indian mixed person
the fact that this person has some north european and west european and also high west-central asian and lower southwest-asian than the iraqi average is a signal that he/she is predominantly kurdish probably .
this is what he/she gets in eurogenes k13
I also wouldnt rule out a little turkmen ancestry because this person scores 3.62% siberian
---
now compare with my results
as you see I score close to zero south asian (keep in mind many turks get 3% and some europeans can score 1% . scoring a little of it as a west asian or european is normal ) . I am a mix of Alevi Zaza and Alevi Kurmanji kurdish . I have no gypsy ancestry
----
and here is the result of a person from Dohuk - Iraqi Kurdistan . this person seems to be pure kurdish . nothing gypsy or anything else . but I dont know if this person could have some other slight mix because he has a shift towards north caucasus a little . but yeah he is from Duhok and gets Kurdish as his first population on calculators so it is fair to assume that he is at least predominantly native kurdish
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
now if this indian mixed person gets asked what ethnicity he/she is then i bet he/she will just say "kurdish" .
there are many such cases . i met a 3/4 kurdish + 1/4 gypsy guy from turkey on another site and have talked to him and have seen him claim to be kurdish when people asked him what he is
i also have a gedmatch kit of someone who is apperently half gypsy and half kurdish .
this is her eurogenes k12b result . compare the result with us non gypsy kurds i posted above :
so it is no surprise that we see people like these men on the pic labeled as "kurds"
....
such a nonsense . these men are not kurdish but mixed or maybe dont even have any kurdish ancestry at all lol . man the second looks hazara give me a fucking break
the iraqi person with the weird gedmatch results will probably look similar to these men
and here this is a kurdish girl from iraq . very kurdish . I bet she would score similar to the guy from duhok . this is what kurds look like
and of course since I posted my results for comparison I will post myself again even though you saw me often . the girl and me we are both ethnic kurds
