Are people with naturally olive/light brown skin but European facial traits "White" as such?

This is white:


Dark hair, brown eyes or not light skin is not white.

Despite his blonde hair and blue eyes, he has a more sallow skin tone than those I described as having a truly white skin tone. So, what's your answer to my thread's question?

No

I know that people will come after me and say "just cause your a depigmented ugric mongol!"

No. The whiteness is overrated, the average Cacuasoid is not white, the majority of the Europeans are not white, etc. And? Who cares!

and what is the contact between genetic markers and taxonomic forms?

btw, all generalization put aside, this is how White skin really looks like:



people can't be white in skin color

This is asking the reverse question of another recently-opened thread. After all, many Cypriots, Maltese, Portuguese, Spaniards, Italians, Greeks and even some Brits, Irish, French, Germans and Poles have naturally olive/light brown skin even when untanned, but their facial traits are still largely if not entirely European.

Examples:

Portugal


Spain


Italy


Greece


Britain


France


Germany

The French guy is NOT a good example of an olive skinned person. Then, I would be "swarthy" because I look very similar to him, except that my hair is more light-brown (while his hair is medium-brown) and my eyes are blue, but my skin tone (Maybe I am a bit lighter skinned than him, because I have some freckles, but I am not that sure) and my facial traits are, for the most part, very similar to him.

The British example is indeed a good example of an olive skinned person. He is even more swarthy than the Portuguese, The Spaniard, the Italian and the Greek. He is so swarthy that he not only doesn't look Brit, but he looks even more swarthy than the swarthiest Spaniards, Italians and Greeks. Are you sure that he is fully ethnic British??

Yoann Gourcuff? Some more photos of him:


To be sure, he isn't as dark as native Europeans can get, but even untanned he has a deeply sallow complexion that is darker than average for France.

Well yes.

Stop trolling. I posted some more 'extreme' examples later on in the thread, such as Andre Gomes, Xavi Hernandez and Fabio Fognini - all of whom are rather swarthier than Gary Lineker.
