Post examples of Americans (White or Black) who could easily pass in Latin American countries

[Tooting Carmen]

This is another re-creation of a thread that was lost in the security crisis. This thread is, at least in part, a riposte against the nonsense of the 'Latino race' concept in the USA, when in fact Latinos can be of almost any race - although Northern Europeans, Northeast Asians, Southeast Asians and South Asians are less common than are other types. In fact, depending on both pigmentation and facial features, a good number of Americans (not the majority, but enough) - both White and Black alike - can pass quite well in countries south of the Rio Grande. Here are some examples:

White Americans

Oh come on everyone. If this was a reverse thread asking people to post Latin Americans who look Anglo, we'd be on to three pages at least by now. xD

Tora Birch and Mena Suvari, could both very easily pass as white Latin Americans of Iberian or Italian descent:

Indeed, Mena Suvari has some Greek (and hence South European) ancestry.

[alnortedelsur]

American Actress Mae Whitman could also very very easily pass as white Cuban, Mexican, Costa Rican, Colombian, Venezuelan, Brazilian, Argentinean, etc of Iberian or Italian descent:

And not only as full white, but also as castiza (one of those castizas who could more or less pass as white). There are lots of castizas who look very close in looks to this actress.

[alnortedelsur]

Rachel Bilson is another white North American actress who could very very very easily pass as white Latin American of Iberian or Italian descent. Could even pass as Latin American castiza:

She's actually a Jewish-Italian mix, but yes I still agree she fits well.

[alnortedelsur]

She's actually a Jewish-Italian mix, but yes I still agree she fits well.
Now I see. That's why her face is very familiar to me. As if she could be Venezuelan. I know she is not, but she reminds me a lot to some white (or whitish) Venezuelan girls that are pretty common in the Venezuelan middle class. Maybe because those Venezuelan girls that she reminds me to, have in common with her, to have Italian ancestry.

[alnortedelsur]

LOL at the idiot of waadad, who gave me a reputation comment regarding my post about Mae Whitman, saying that she is "ugly as fuck"... WTF

Mae Whitman is very feminine and pretty. And I like a lot her feminine and gracile rounded features.

Its obvious that that stupid nigga has never seen his own face on a mirror.

Well, lots of white Latin Americans (and not only in Argentina, Uruguay and southern Brazil, but also in countries like Cuba, Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia, Chile, etc) are as light featured and have similar looks to Thora Birch and Mena Suvari, believe it or not.

That they don't fit the stereotype about Latin America that many people have in mind, is a different thing.

Yea I know but the thing is they're a MINORITY.

For example, you don't see millions of Guillermo del Toros walking around Mexico. If you're going to use blonde Northern European examples then we could just start posting anybody's pic.

Thora Birch and Mena Suvari don't look Scandinavian. Their skin, hair, and eye pigmentation are pretty normal for European standards, and common as fuck in Iberia and Italy. They are NO WAY "too light" for southern European standards, and by extension, for white Latin American standards (when we talk strictly about full whites, or near-white Latin Americans). And they don't have square like Nordic features, but soft gracile features, which make them pass easily unnoticed in Southern Europe or among white Latin Americans of Italian or Iberian descent.

If we were talking about pale as fuck people like Conan O'brien, Gleen Close, Reese Whisperton, or Leven Rambin, I would agree that they are too pale, and have too Nordic facial features for white Latin American or southern Euro standards, but not in the case of Thora Birch and Mena Suvari.

American actress of full Italian descent, Marisa Tomei could pass, very very easily, as white Venezuelan, Brazilian, Uruguayan or Argentinean, of Italian descent, and also (why not) as Latin American of Spanish or Portuguese descent (because she could also pass as ethnic Spanish or ethnic Portuguese, even admitting that she looks more Italian):

She looks a bit "eastern" for an Iberian.

She could pass, anyways. Not as very typical but could pass.

As I said in another thread that I opened about her, that was lost in the last forum crash, if she wasn't famous, and walked in the streets of a Spanish city without opening her mouth, she would not be questioned as being foreign.

I mean that their looks are common enough in several Latin American countries (and not only in the southern cone) and common as fuck among white Latin Americans (who are mostly of Italian or Iberian descent), and to some extent, among castizo Latin Americans (those who could relatively pass as full Europeans).

No, not everyone. Extreme Nordids, Tronders, Faelids, Baltids, along with many (though by no means all) phenotypes from East Asia and South Asia would either be totally unpassable or highly atypical depending on the Latin American country in question.

[alnortedelsur]

anyone can pass lol

Not really. But those that I have showed on this thread would pass as common as fuck in Argentina, Uruguay and Southern Brazil, and would also be common enough in other Latin American countries (besides Argentina, Uruguay and Southern Brazil) with sizable white/castizo populations. Those white North Americans that are passable in southern Europe (like the ones that I have posted on this thread), of course that can pass as Latin Americans (not as the typical racial mixed Latin American that some people have in mind, but as white Latin Americans, who are mostly of southern Euro descent).

The white North Americans that would not pass in Latin America, in the sense of being common in there, are those with very Nordic square-like features, because most white Latin Americans are of southern Euro descent (mainly Iberia and Italy). But even them could pass as very very untypical white Latin Americans, since there are some white Latin Americans out there of Northern Euro descent, even if very minority.

However, for me passing is to be common enough, and those actresses that I posted on this thread would be common enough in Latin America.

If passing also includes passing as very very atypical, then YES, anybody (including ALL white North Americans, even the most Nordic ones) can pass in Latin America.

Hard to say with old people. He looks Jewish, I think. He could pass as an Argentinean Jewish. Argentina has an important population of Jewish origin (very minority, but an important minority), and they are also present in other Latin American countries.

There is, for example, 1% of Jewish Venezuelans, I think, and the same goes for other Latin American countries.

Latin Americans have their own variation and it is still possible to spot foreigners much of the time when you're there. Although it is true that people have migrated there from all over the world, (1) the overwhelmingly majority of Whites come from just three countries, and are much more limited in diversity of ethnic origin than in the USA and (2) relatively few Latin Americans (even in Argentina, Uruguay and Southern Brazil) have light hair, although light eyes are a bit more common, and people with such features are usually labelled 'gringos'. As for other ethnicities, South Asians are not present in any country to any appreciable degree and, although some could pass as Mestizos or Triracials, most would stand out. Likewise, typical Horners/East Africans wouldn't really blend in with Afro-Latin Americans either. Moreover, except in some countries which have had more immigration (most notably Brazil, where Sao Paulo specifically has the largest Japanese population outside Japan) East Asians generally don't pass either.

Bro every major Latin American country including Peru has received East Asian immigration. I honk it is actually much more common to find blonde Latin Americans and light haired ones than people think generally. Also there is many Latin Americans of middle eastern descent I think it's a silly idea personally because it has such a massive diversity.

EXactly! To be Latin American you only need to be born and raised there and Latin America has received people from all over so anyone can indeed pass this is a pointless thread. Post every single American.

If passing includes passing as very very atypical, every single North American can pass in Latin America, but if passing only means being common enough, then all those actresses that I posted can pass in several Latin American countries.

I find it stupid to consider only being present, even if as very uncommon, in some place as passing, but I also find it stupid to restrict the meaning of passing, as only looking typical. And those actresses I posted, even if not typical, their looks are common enough in several Latin American countries (those with considerable white/castizo populations), and they would even pass as typical in Argentina, Uruguay and Southern Brazil.

Even the very few with light hair and light eyes rarely have the same features as Germanic and Slavic people, i.e. the people usually labelled as 'gringos'. And although it is true that some Latin American countries had lots of East Asian immigrants, in no country do they make up more than 5% of the population (and even that is being generous). Middle Easterners can often pass well in Latin America, even in places where there aren't many of direct descent, as there is a certain similarity particularly with Mestizos but also some darker, more Med-looking Whites in terms of both pigmentation and features.

I guess Italian- Americans would pass well for Argentines.

True, although ironically the former tend to be more of Southern Italian descent than is true of the latter, so the phenotypes wouldn't entirely be the same.

[Tooting Carmen]

What's more, even all the fringe immigrant groups usually intermarry over the generations into the Southern Euro-Mestizo 'mainstream' and their phenotypes often disappear over time in the process. Many Anglo-Argentines, for example, look very atypical for the UK as lots of them have now mixed with Iberian/Italian/Castizo/Mestizo Argentines. This Argentine rugby player, Agustin Creevy, is said to be of Irish descent but really doesn't look it:

Sorry but the bulk of them still being Mediterranean types.
You can find a decent number of central-northern-euro descendants, but more than 80% of those people have clearly Mediterranean traits.
And I repeat, in a crowd in big cities Med phenotypes are predominantly by far.

Argentines are generally still pretty Southern European looking. I have a friend that went there and she said she rarely saw anyone with light hair there. Again, this idea of Northern and Southern Italians looking so different from each other is not large enough to matter to the American eye.

For any reason here many people who was blond in his/her childhood change the hair colour after the adolescence.
Myself for example, although I've never been properly blond I used to have a ginger/very light auburn mix hair (my mum was properly redhead) but after 11 it changed to regular or medium auburn.
In south Brazil it's more common to see people with very fair hair colour after the adolescence... who knows....

Wait a moment. German-descendants in South Brasil are at least the half of population right? At least in Santa Catarina.

Only some pockets of Parana, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande Do Sul are.

White Americans that pass easily in Latam are Italian-Americans and the minority Germanic/WASP types that look pseudo Southern European or have pan-Western Euro looks, not those heavily Brunn/Keltic Nordid types that would be easily spotted as gringos here in a group.

What about Paleo-Atlantids (dark Anglo/British type) like Tommy Lee Jones, for example?
Can they pass as locals in Latin America or do they look more 'Gringo'?
