Agreeable for the most part.

But come on, Iberia is diverse as fuck...the southern tip is semi-desert and the people there (SOME SOME!) do fit in level 7, such as some Andalusians





People cry at these pics but these type of men are the most attractive (except the last one lolz)!

So where would you place Spaniards now? Level 3 too with Russians, Ukrainians and Slovenes?
If you always say that everyone in Spain looks the same, why separate them in three different levels?
Do you still believe the lightest region in Spain is lighter than the darkest French region?

I wouldn't put them in level 3 or anything like that. But I still maintain that Iberians are far from being the darkest Euros. They are lighter on average than southern Italians, maltese, Cypriots and Greeks. And they are more or less on par with central Italians and several non-Greek Balkan nations like Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Montenegro, Macedonia, etc.

I don't care about what I said several years ago, as for you or anybody else claiming me for that now. The creation of this thread was a stupid rant of mine after being upset of reading so many ignorant comments in this forum and other internet platforms, of people saying that Iberians are the darkest Euros, or that they look borderline for European standards, and other stupidities like that.

I have always claimed that the pigmentation differences between Spanish regions is minimal, and not easily noticeable, but yet I think there are slight differences between northern and southern Iberian regions, but not as marked as some people think, like if northern Spanish regions were worlds apart from southern Spanish regions, when that's not the case. I'm tired of reading some people say stupidities like saying that a lightish pan-European looking person only passes in northern Spain and not in the rest of Spain, when there are also many people like that in southern Spain, like there are also many more meddish looking Spaniards in northern Spanish regions.

When I said Northernmost Spaniards being on par or lighter than southernmost French... when you think about it, southernmost France (only talking about the very southernmost coastal Mediterranean French regions) have a very sunny Mediterranean climate, in contrast to the northern Spanish coastal Cantabrian regions (Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia, Navarra, etc) that have a much less sunny and more cloudy climate. With that being said, is not far fetched to think in the possibility that those northernmost Spaniards could be marginally lighter than very coastal Mediterranean French. I don't claim that now, and don't care about it anymore, but just explaining why I came up with that idea (as a possibility) in the past, when I opened this thread.

I think make a classification in this way is wrong, because you ought to divide the lightness/darkness by categories.. skin, hair, eyes..

North Italy is lighter in hair and eyes than Spain or Portugal, but equal or similar in complexion, instead South Italy is equal or similar to the Iberia in the amount of light eyes and hair, but darker-skinned.
