    Default What ethnicities have you been told that you can pass as by people of those ethnicities?

    Like, what ethnicities have you been told you can pass for BY people of those ethnicities. For example, maybe an Italian person told you that you could pass as Italian.

    Here is my list:

    - Georgian
    - Hungarian
    - Ukrainian
    - Levantine (Lebanese, to be precise)
    - French
    - Russian
    - Bosnian

    Spaniards, white North Americans (not being told by them directly, but assumed by them as being one of them on a daily basis, at least when I don't open my mouth) and white Brazilians, by people of those nationalities outside this forum (though a Brazilian member has also told me that I could easily pass as southern Brazilian).

    And I have also been told that I could pass as French, Hungarian and as Croat by Apricity members of those nationalities who have seen my pics.

    I have also been told that I look Russian and Ukrainian IRL and by members of this forum who have seen my pics, that I could pass as Italian by members on this forum who have seen my pics, and have been mistaken for Argentinean few times outside this forum, but not directly by people of those nationalities.

    Austrian. In real life. Online I just asked a austrian guy in pm if I pass and he said I do. He said "Sure austria is a small country but international melting pot" I dont know if he meant as ethnic austrian though.

    Also in real life other things but never as one thing by that ethnicity like I was mistaken for turkish but by austrians not by turks. The only thing I was told I could pass by that same ethnicity is Austrian.

    I got mistaken for a Jew back when I was in Murica. Armenians thought I was Armenian when I was in Bourj 7amoud in Lebanon. I got mistaken for Syrian, Algerian, Sicilian by a Southern Italian, Cypriot and a Copt when I was in Egypt.

    I agree with the cypriot. I though you are cypriot before I read you are palestinian in your classification thread. You have stronger European vibe (greek I think) than a typical arab/levantine. But I don't think you look jewish.

    Some Germans told me that they didn't realize I wasn't German, so there's that. They weren't really good at anthropology, it seems.
