To me I feel Iberian have their own look distinct from those 2 groups imo. So I wouldn’t say there is a lot. But I feel Spaniards and especially Portuguese passing as British is over exaggerated. London is filled with Spaniards and usually British people are able tell them apart from native Brits.
They still pass better as British, specially those ones from Northern regions with high alpine/atlantid influence.
Plus to what you said earlier, Armenia can technically be classified as European too depending on who you ask. After all they compete in Eurovision and play in the euro cup.
And yes, of course I don’t disagree there. But Spain collectively doesn’t pass as British as a whole. People always use the northern regions to explain that. It’s like saying all Turkish people pass as Balkan or central euro because there are Turks, especially in the west who have ancestry from balkans/Central Europe. Or it’s like saying all Azerbaijanis pass as Chechen because they have the Caucasian Albanians/udi people who are related to north caucasians. Back to Spain, especially in the west and south portion, you’ll find even less British passing people, just like in eastern turkey you will find less people passing in balkans, although some will pass there like @FUCKEEER
Nope, castizas and some west asians looks very good.
Well, in fact many anime characters (even the japanese ones) looks very west-eurasian.
Well why not? They are trying to attract a greater audience outside Japan.
It is usually South Americans/Mexicans trolling Iberians or Italians or some South Asians trolling West Asians, the majority of these people that trolls Southern Europeans aren't born in Europe, but ,sometimes, there are some balkanites trolling greeks, italians or albanians.
I don’t see it personally because I probably pay more attention to threads pertaining to west Asia, but I’ve seen on places like r/phenotypes that Latinos are accused of wanting to pass off Latin Americans as European. And I remember someone posted Spanish YouTuber illojuan and he was accused of being a Latin American wanting to larp as Spaniard when the guy is literally indigenous Spaniard.
Most of these trolls from these forums have very weird obsessions, i don't think any of them are happy, and i swear more than 80% aren't even living in europe, you were one of the most mentally healthy members from these kind of forums though. I am very glad i stop to post on these forums, full of insecure keyboard warriors that will try to do anything to make other people feel as miserable as they feel.
Lol, it is so weird how they act like iberian phenotypes are uncommon in Latin America.
I am convinced a great number of members from that forum are lonely and desperate people that are trying to impress some women or even other men, if you notice how some of these trolls would show some very weird "undertones" when describing some phenotypes.
