What % of euro blood is your limit to consider somebody white?

[JBoscherville]

I'd say a good two-thirds and looking predominantly European is my absolute limit for somebody to join the master race. Unless it's someone like a White Brazilian born to Lebanese parents, then my limit is zero.

[Costas]

Either 100% or 70%.

First one because technically someone 95% Euro - 5% Native, is not a "White person" according to the one drop rule.

Second one because a person over 70% Euro will look White in most cases.

The 85% or 90% limit is arbitrary and has no arguments behind neither technical nor empirical (or physical).

gypsy = entity in brazilian religion called umbanda

I think in Latin America, it is the only place where Gypsies are loved (to some extent), and even Latinos who want to claim having Gypsy ancestry
we have some as well, and they have been here since the colonial days

"According to the Joshua Project, there are 51,000 Romani/Vlax in Mexico (85% are Christian)" but some say it is higher if they include Mexicans with Gitano roots whom may not know they have it or those who left their Gitano culture behind


La Gitana on the obverse of the five peso note in circulation between 1937 and 1970. On the reverse was the Monumento a la Independencia.




In the story “Gente bella” (Beautiful People), the Mexican dictator of the day sends a mission to Europe to import 300 families and thus “whiten the race, to put an end to laziness.” Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria cheats him and sends, for the price of gold, gypsies.

This social critique by leftist Mexican politician and writer Eraclio Zepeda, who was born in 1937, is a veiled reference to President Porfirio Díaz (1830-1915), and depicts the persistent negative stereotype of gypsies that partly explains their invisibility, even today, despite their deep roots in the country.

Ysmed Nebarak, who lives in Acapulco on Mexico’s southern Pacific coast, knows about that invisibility. Her grandfather, a Hungarian who came to Mexico around 1920, kept mum about the story of his first wife, who was a gypsy.

“I honestly don’t know about his ancestors, because he never wanted to tell us about them,” she told IPS.

This Latin American country of 107 million people is home to 15,850 gypsies — or Roma as they prefer to be called — according to the 2000 census by the National Institute of Statistics and Geography. However, the figure is considered an underestimate due to the narrow criteria used to classify members of the ethnic group, and researchers put the total much higher.

The first wave of Roma arrived in Mexico in the 1890s, when they came to the Americas from Hungary, Poland and Russia and mainly settled in the United States and Brazil, but also in this country, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Uruguay and Venezuela.

And in the period between World War I and World War II, many more Roma left Hungary for Mexico, Venezuela and other nations.

But in 1931, when there was already a large community of Roma in Mexico, the immigration laws were reformed to ban them from settling in this country, after growing accusations of criminal activities.

The last major influx of Roma occurred in 1969. They came from Spain and mainly settled in the central Mexico City neighbourhood of Juárez, where they are chiefly dedicated to selling textiles and leather garments.

Today there are Roma communities in the capital and in the cities of Veracruz on Mexico’s eastern coast, Puebla in the south, Guadalajara in the west and Monterrey in the northeast. But the best-known Roma communities are in San Luís Potosí in central Mexico.



Calo which is a dialect in Mexico is influence heavily by the Gypsies, not to mention that many slang we Mexicans use has its Gypsy origin

"Calo is said to incorporate Romany words imported to Mexico by Spanish gypsies in the nineteenth century"

sorry that i called you stupid. i apologise.

[Ranger0075]

sometimes even 100% is not enough
I've seen some people 97~100% euro on genetic results that dont look european at all, at same time Ive seen people 50% euro that look fully euro like a half paki/half british that I know. But if we get an average, imo it would be ~90%. Then Ill vote for dat
But i'd consider even someone 1% euro if they look like one.

[Rethel]

The WHGiest member of TA looks the EHGiest.
So, being white and having autosomal %, are
two totaly (at least sometimes) different things.

I think someone who is 70% euro will look castizo and not white, unless mixed with a caucasian race like MENA. But when mixed with amerind or specially SSA they wont look white.

Do you have any example in mind of people of 70% euro that look white?

[LieDetector]

So much coping in this thread.

Hi Annie!!! Nice to see you

I saw a Chilean girl who was 70% Euro - 30% Amerindian and she looked pretty White! Don't remember where I saw her but it caught my attention. She had fair skin, light eyes, European features

I'll post her picture if I recall where I saw her!
