Kurdish IG model

[Hadouken]

If that's really the case, why not present some evidence for a change? Try to address the points made by the blogger I posted a link to. We've seen enough of your complexes toward Kurds from other areas than yours.

I am just saying things how they are . there are variation among groups of the same ethnic groups in many other ethnicities too and we are not an exception on that . not sure why you accuse me of complexes only because I state it . especially since it is a normal thing and I dont judge it negatively either

I will have to go in 10-15 minutes but will be back in 2-3 hours but here an example :

You must have glossed over the fact that Feyli Kurds are genetically closer to Iranians than to other Kurds, which is shown in the blog post.

The blog post shows that there is little genetic variation among the Kurdish sub-groups, which you claimed there was. Iranians are simply highly similar to Kurds.

Bro don't tell me that Iranians and Kurds are indistinguishable now lol.

Autosomal DNA ≠ phenotype. If you want to discuss variations in phenotype among Kurds that is a separate matter (though I don't agree with you about her being atypical in northern Kurdistan either), I just responded to your claim that Kurdish subgroups are genetically dissimilar, least of all when grouped along arbitrary national lines.

I never stated this, don't put words in my mouth. I said that they can look different. If you didn't tell me this girl was a Kurd I would have thought she was Iranian.

Fair enough. Several other Kurds from different parts of Kurdistan have seen her and you (along with All-in) are the first to hold this opinion.
