Why do people deny spaniards look different?

[CrazyDaisy]

I'm not saying spaniards aren't white. They are. They just have their own distinct look like a lot of other European countries. Whenever I say spaniards have their own look, one user always denies it. He keeps saying they can all pass as British. Most of them can't. They look white, just not British.

Iberians have their own distinct look, just like French, Italians, Germans, British, etc, have theirs. Nothing more, nothing less.

Iberians are "distinct" in that same way as those other European nationalities, NOT in a particularly "different" way that set them apart, and like "another breed" from other Euros, as you maliciously imply. Their phenotypes, pigmentation range, genetics, and culture are very well into the European context, like it or not.

If you are butt hurt because you can no pass, even as an exotic full European, don't vent your frustration on others.

People on Peru forums don't seem to think so.

Peruvians think I look white. Or at least castiza/Jewish.

Spaniards (and Italians including Northern Italians) look too Southern to look British. Far more Spaniards can pass in Italy than in Britain. But there is some vague resemblance, as the Scottish have ancient Basque/Spanish and Irish ancestry while the English have mostly Anglo-Saxon and French ancestry.

That's what I thought. I don't know why people always act like they don't look Southern European.
