What percentage of Colombians in this group photo look fully European?

[Tooting Carmen]

These are what typical upper-middle class Colombians look like - they are members of staff in one of Bogota's leading universities.

[Tooting Carmen]

43%

Thanks. Anyone else?

[Carlito's Way]

10% and how many look ugly? 100%

[Tooting Carmen]

All but 4.

Which ones don't in your view?

[Tooting Carmen]

10% and how many look ugly? 100%

They are lecturers, professors and managers, not plastic and overgroomed actors and models ffs.

[GrebluBro]

43% or 7/16 (only 4 looks undeniably Euro though)

[Steve-O]

I only see 4 or 5 who couldn't pass.

[Tooting Carmen]

4-7

[Anglojew]

4 out of 16 looking fully European to me. That's 25%

[GrebluBro]

I'm confused. I said in the thread's title "What PERCENTAGE..."

I made it clear now :thumb001:

Normally I do not go in for these "who looks White or not" debates in the way that lots of others in this forum do. However, given the endless discussions and controversies over the link between race and social class in Latin American countries, I thought I'd post a typical, NON-CHERRYPICKED group of upper-middle class Colombians for people to see. Like I have said before, while there is definitely a certain correlation between race and social class both in Colombia and other Latin American countries, a lot of people do exaggerate it and fail to acknowledge the real levels of mobility and mixing that go on.

You should post Medellin upper-class, I expect 60+% looking full-Euro

so all of those are meant to be ugly? i dont think so

Actually, the supposed 'Whiteness' of Paisas is also overrated, especially nowadays with so much migration from other, much less White regions along the Pacific Coast nearby. I cannot speak for other Latin American countries, but I'd argue that, in Colombia, region is more important than social class in determining phenotype.

They are not 'ugly', they are normal. Not everyone has to look like a telenovela star LOL, even among the higher social classes.

[Argentano]

im between 7/16 or 8/16

they look more european than your other threads

They are from my thread about Colombian Universities, which you have already seen yourself. Nevertheless, for the benefit of those who haven't seen it, here it is: http://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?116777-Universities-from-across-Colombia

those are ugly, they would be taken for ugly latinos where i live

[Mn The Loki TA Son]

Most of them look pred./mostly Caucasoid but a few % of them look fully European others look Levantine and some others, like one of the womens for example look harnizo or castizo range

Indeed, Colombians are very varied, regardless of social class.:thumb001:

i know... i think i even quoted that pic.. what i meant is that the pic looks significantly more european than the average of photos posted...

Possibly. But I still think the 'Whiteness' of Latin America's higher social classes (except in the Southern Cone and Brazil, of course) is overrated; certainly, as a group they would not pass in Sicily let alone Sweden.

[Smeagol]

Half of them.

[Armand_Duval]

More than half of them look or could pass as full euro imo.

[armenianbodyhair]

All but 5 or maybe 6

[Cristiano viejo]

Six of them look European to me.

[Smaug]

Most of them could.

[Roy]

6 of them look off-European.

[Peyrol]

Around 35-40%

[Ibericus]

About 4 or 5 could pass, the others look like they have some kind of admixture

[Rambo07]

3 look NON Euro, rest are fine. Very typical for South America, the elite look very different from the masses.

[aherne]

I don't find them too European looking. In Colombia (unlike in Mexico) there seems to have been widespread admixture on all social levels, so that even "Whites" (I wouldn't consider them such) look a little mixed with Indian (and sometimes even with Negro). Such racially ambiguous individuals remind me of near-Whites in Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic...

Bump

[Smaug]

Five.
