Nonsense and why I don’t frequent these forums much. Trolling and low IQ culture war nonsense has ruined them.
Also if you're a woman like me on these forums you do have to be extra careful not to post anything too disagreeable in some form or else people will think they can stomp all over you and trash you as much as you want and make you feel inferior because they see you as inferior, and your opinions will always be given less clout than male users opinions. Users may hurl sexist insults and lude or degrading comments or say you don't have the brain for "that" you can't do science etc like has happened to me multiple times..
You forgot to mention about their childish arguments, like how they would talk about english guys like Rowan Atkinson being partly Middle Eastern or "half-southasian" just because of their non-harmonic features.Nonsense and why I don’t frequent these forums much.

That.You forgot to mention about their childish arguments, like how they would talk about english guys like Rowan Atkinson being partly Middle Eastern or "half-southasian" just because of their non-harmonic features.
Oh that has happened to me several times. Not with users I thought were nice, but some users I didn’t know much about. I had two users on ABF who were particularly bad for that. Follow me around and even bump up old posts from years ago to tell me off. It was insane.Another Anthroforum annoying pet peeve I have is when you think a user is "nice" and your friend and as soon as you post an opinion they even slightly disagree with, they started attacking you or mass thumbing you down and get super emotional following you into threads to insult you oh myhappened to me more than once lol

Yeah, many people on these forums try to disassociate themselves from the darker specimens from their ethnicities. If Catherine Zeta Jones, a pure British Islander, wasn't famous, hence having her ancestry well documented, they would claim she's not pure Bretonic, but part Southern European.You forgot to mention about their childish arguments, like how they would talk about english guys like Rowan Atkinson being partly Middle Eastern or "half-southasian" just because of their non-harmonic features.
If you think about it not even many dudes from Italicroots are really italian themselves lmao. Ironically the few italian users in there weren't much complexed at all.Northern Europeans are not "trolled" on anthroforums for a simple reason: they don't have as many childish and insecure members as Southern Europe.
Southern Europeans are trolled because many of them are insecure regarding the fact that Iberians, Italians, Greeks... are dark for Northern European standards, no, I'm not saying, they look the same as Northern Africans and Levantines, they don't, but they do have an overlap with them, which is rare in Northern Europe (dark Northern Euros will look Southern Euro at most), and this overlap is something that many Southern Euros can't accept (they don't want to be associated with non-Europeans), so they try to cope by creating a victimist mentality where everyone wants to darkwash them.
Northern Euros don't have a phenotypical overlap with the non-Euro med shores, they have tons of light features (a minority in Med Europe), they are the richest Euros, their phenotypes are seen as the standard of Europeanness worldwide, hence they don't need to act so defensive regarding their Europeanness, that's why you don't have a GermanRoots forum (instead we have Italicroots, where a bunch of complexed "Italians" spend their days darkwashing Iberians); that's why you don't see Germans and British fighting over who's whiter (instead we had Iberians vs Italian fights over who's whiter, when both are mostly swarthy compared to Northern Euros, and even Portuguese vs Spaniards back in 2019... a.k.a swarthies fighting over who's less swarthy).
Iberians are not NA looking, but they do have some NA imput, while Southern Italians are not Levantines, but they do have more levantine shifted types which matches their genetic composition (people are being biassed if they think a Sicilian and Venetian are genetic carbon copies, they aren't, and that genetic diference is also manifested in their phenotypes, hence more swarthy and levantine looking types among Sicilians than Venetians, denying this is being blind, racist and childish).
The same happens in Latin America, latinos fight over who's whiter, but never who's blacker, more Amerindian, and it makes sense why that happens, we're former European colonies, we have a colonized mindset, we live in an anglocentric world, we want to be closer to the people with lightest features, which are associated with progress and civility.
As a Brazilian, while Brazil is one of the most Euro countries in Latam, we're far from being a Latin American version of the USA, because:
1- While we have many whites here, most Brazilians are triracials.
2 - Even the substancial white minority of Brazil score some some SSA and Amerindian admixture on average, unlike in the US, where most whites are pure European.
3 - White Brazilians/latinos are mostly of Iberian and Italian stock, so even if we were a USA of the tropics, we would still be darker than them, since we're mostly of Southern European ancestry, while Americans are mostly Anglo/British/Germanic/Germans.
If all Southern Europeans accepted that they are mostly darker than Northern Euros, if latinos accepted that we're mostly mixed, then, well, they wouldn't be trolled on these forums, for every person that portraits Iberians as indistinguishable from Morrocans and Southern Italians as indistinguishable from Lebanese, you see 100 of Southern Euro users obsessed with cherrypicking lighter types of their ethnicities and fighting over if Iberians are lighter than Italians and vice versa, while Iberians pass better in Palermo than in London, and Sicilians pass better in Porto and Madrid than in Berlin, whether people deny it or not.
Think about it.

This oddguidance guy found a way to manipulate people using his controversial views. What could be the best place for that? On reddit, obviously. He created the first subreddit on that topic to spread that controversial content everywhere. Of course this wouldn't end up well.Remember that one Spanish guy on TA who only posted blonde Spaniards from the northeast region and children, who we all know tend to be lighter than the adults by default, and shits so hard on west Asians and always talks about Spaniards passing as British? He tried so hard to orientalize North Africans and west Asians. Even oddguidance did a poll asking if Spaniards pass better as Armenian or British and everyone said British. Also, why tf would anyone want to pass as British over Armenian anyways? Everyone knows that British people are known to be the ugliest people in Europe. U can’t tell me people like Marco acensio pass better as British than Armenian
Campbell is American, but of English and Scotish ancestry.While British people are not seen as good looking, they are Northern Euros, hence the "epytome of whiteness/progress", so it makes sense why a complexed Spaniard would try to exagerrate the phenotypical link between Spain and Britain.
The irony is that, to me, the best looking Brits are the ones that could pass for Southern Euro, like Catherine Zeta Jones, Bruce Campbell, etc.
Northern Europeans on those forums are totally childish. And fragile. They’re just not trolled cos they’re the majority.Northern Europeans are not "trolled" on anthroforums for a simple reason: they don't have as many childish and insecure members as Southern Europe.

Think about it.
N euros are trolled sometimes and they have their own complexes as well. But if you notice it is generally not something about ethnicity/features, but more likely other things like culture, personality, behaviour, sexuality, intelligence or general weirdness for example.Northern Europeans on those forums are totally childish. And fragile. They’re just not trolled cos they’re the majority.
But if you do come at them with truth (so not trolling) they lose their shit, accuse you of trolling, and try to mess with your personal life off the Internet.
The Northern Euros on those forums hate me because I’m a proud Acadian who embraces their non-north European ancestry instead of trying to whitewash it. That hurts their delicate fee fees for some reason.
Don’t get me wrong, I embrace the N. Euro ancestry as well but that’s not good enough for those childish fragile souls. They want denial and for me to say that Northern Europeans are God’s gift to the Earth.
Why do people care about features. I don’t get it.N euros are trolled sometimes and they have their own complexes as well. But if you notice it is generally not something about ethnicity/features, but more likely other things like culture, personality, behaviour, sexuality, intelligence or general weirdness for example.
Plus Balkans/slavs users are also something... strange to explain tbh. They seem so similar but also so different at the same time. They seem much less obsessed with nordic influence/light features though.
They’re good looking folks IMO.in anthroforums many people seem to find north european looks especially swedish the most beautiful and when someone says that they dont think so then people act as if the person is coping and is dishonest
i personally do not find north euros to be the most beautiful . i find northern west asians and south europeans including balkans to be the best looking people
