Do people from Surrey England pass better in France or in Scotland

[Oliver109]

I think that they ought to pass better in France because of not only so many migrations from France over the past 3000 years impacting Surrey more than the North of Britain but also because the first settlers to that part of England would have naturally come from France as well.

Northern France or Belgium imo, not many distinctly Brythonic types like you’d find in the midlands or the north.

I think Scots seem shall we say a bit more square faced, also the paleness seems very universal as well while a good few down here do develop good tans.

It is quite interesting how southern shifted a lot of those in the pics from Normandy are. I would say they pass better in Scotland.
Those in the Scottish pics look just a bit more pale, insular Celtic and CM influenced, but to my eyes, the differences are greater between those in Surrey and those across the English Channel.

That is a good careful observation there, this is a part of France where you can't say that they are mostly descendant's of Italians or the Spanish, a very rural part of France, they are very similar to Bretons who are said to be quite dark and of the Alpine type. I see aspects of the French in the people from Surrey though, i dare say many if not most of the Surrey ones pass as light French better than Scots.

Some individuals look more French some look more Scots

[Rudel]

Scotland ? Collectively they look very much British.

[Oliver109]

I find it to disagree there, although I do think that Oliver109 is absolutely right that a lot of the girls in the Surrey pics look more similar to light French types, but I will say again how surprised I am as to how southern-shifted Normandy is. The differences are indeed quite indistinguishable up and down the isle of Britannia.

Coon said that the Nordid types were never a major part of the French population, we get the idea of Normandy as Nordic i think from the fact that blonde hair is still relatively common there compared to southern Europe as well as the name of the province though of course never in half of the population like in northern Germany. or the Netherlands. France is quite uniform when it comes to hair pigmentation, there are no drastic divides like there are in other parts of Europe.

Light French are more Sub-nordid or in some cases Norid than anything pure Nordid; French are heavily alpinised overall.

Very true, full grown faelids or borrebies are a much smaller part of the French population, even the Surrey set has at least several unreduced Nordids.

Is this the new Atlantic Facade?
