Do New World Whites tend to be fairer-complexioned than their Old World counterparts? If so, why?

Certainly not in Australia, it's impossible to not tan here unless you're so pale you just turn red under the sun.

Irish and Scottish?

Irish and Scottish?

What about them? Some can tan and many can't.

I mean the Australians of Irish and Scottish ancestry (which are many), not including the redheads, most of the Irish and Scots can not tan, their skin turns red.

Very true, I have one Irish uncle.

Very true, I have one Irish uncle.

I congratulate you.

Actually the Australians on average seem more to me from the side Germanic (Anglo-Saxon) than of the Celtic. That an Australian member confirms or denies it to me.





The face of the Australians seems indistinguishable to that of the British but it is true that on the skin the Australians are more tanned, which is normal because otherwise the majority of Australians would die of skin cancer.

Australians are obviously heavily shifted towards Scottish/Irish phenotypes, rather than continental Germanic ones. I would say at least 1/3 and probably more of "Anglo" Australians are fully or mostly "Celtic" (Irish/Scottish/Welsh).

There are very very few actual blonde Greeks

But not in the level of China.

in the US is special because the whites haven't really strong europeans traits is more average,aside julianne moore or gillian anderson,the rest is more mainstream average,their face are more ovoid or squary but they don't looks "germanic" "scandinavians" "dutch" or "british" their traits are not strong enough because in the white pool gene they are more diluated,i like the american blondes but they don't looks like the other europeans ,an average american blonde looks like this
guess they european roots good luck

same here guess their roots good luck

even the baldy mr bruce
you can't guess it's impossible they are european for sure but diluated
here for example bradley cooper with a name like that "cooper", him is typical celt but it's just the phenotype

di caprio is half german half italian,his case is different,michell "pfeiffer" is german ,charlize theron is afrikanner
michelle looks like the mix that she is german,swiss,swedish,irish,dutch but you can't really tell than she have strong traits,it's beautifull woman but she is mainstream diluated
same with rachel nichols you can't tell her roots

but for a counter example morrena baccarin (one of the hottest) is brasilian and if you looks well you see than she is not anglo,and she looks more "portuguese"



no it's not really obvious

I live in England and most English people are pale not just standard fair pigmentation
