She claims at the beginning of this video that people "can't figure out her ethnicity". I knew right away, even though she's only half. But could others?

I don't know, I feel like she fits in the punjab region very well. That's what I initially thought she was when I looked at her-I didn't guess she would be half white. She actually looks kind of like my sister.

You don't need to have the same phenotype as someone else to resemble them, like in the example you gave, but it really helps. I haven't seen any Latinas who look like her.

Eh, I don't know. Her dad looks south/central Indian while she looks pretty northwest Indian IMO. I think her European mix is responsible for that.

Her features are very gracile, her skin tone is particular not fair, I'd say skin tone is more equivalent to Deepika Padukone - who is not North Indian at all.

Not all people from the northwest subcontinent are fair. It's her nose I guess, that kind of chiseled sharp nose I've seen mainly in people from the northwest.

I mentioned "standards"; in general I'd like to think the punjabi standards for skin tone among mid caste to high caste punjabis are higher.

people in the comments section were saying she looks more like her mom with a tan. So she looks white with an indian skin tone according to them? Idk to me she just looks latina honestly, her nose is too atypical for an indian but she could still superficially pass all throughout india as an indian with no one giving her second looks.

In the south they might see her as an anglo indian or northwest indian.

Gracile Indid + med.

Thanks, I was waiting for your input. I don't see the Latin and I also think the nose might fit among the more Caucasoid/NW shifted indians. Where does she fit best in the subcontinent, in your opinion?

she kinda has a hindu upper caste look where she looks indian but you can see euro shifted features in her.

Imo she fits best in haryana, rajasthan, or among UP brahmins since they look like typical indians with indian skin tone but with a lot of euro influence in facial features. I dont see her fitting in pakistan, kashmir, etc for some reason. they look more middle east/caucasus influenced so thats why perhaps. She looks more med/euro than iranic shifted.

Nah , the stereotype and thug about them being as white as milk is a exaggerated . Many Punjabi’s and paks are lighter then other Indians but many can have a brownish skin tone too . It’s more so their features that are different then the skin tone , of course lighter skin is common in them since they are more northern but many paks and Punjabi’s are of this skin tone and darker . But I agree that she looks ambigous Indian , doesent look specifically punjabi

I don’t think Pakistani and NW Indians are that light, it’s more that Indians are really dark and in comparison Pakis and NW Indians are light, same way African Americans would be light in South Sudan

speaking of skin tone this is a melanin index chart from AG. It has some errors but its interesting nonetheless. India seems to have the biggest range in skin tone. next are african americans with almost a similar range and that makes sense given that they take in all people that identify as african americans into account so they can range from quadroons to full black.

It does have correlations, unless the mix is of two different races. For example, two White parents (provided no foreign admixture in family tree) will always end up producing White kids. It's possible for OP's kids to look White, even if she gets married to brown person, because she has recent Euro admix from her mom's side. Similarly, her kids could end up looking South Asian if she marries with White person. Mixed people often end up looking like one of their parents or fine blend of two. The op looks distinctively Indian and broadly South Asian (she carried over her father's phenotype).

Yeah the biggest range is interesting. The lightest ones are probably kashmiris and khatris, gujjars, etc while the darkest are most likely some tribal groups like gonds, pulliyars, etc in jharkhand, chattisgarh, kerala, tamilnadu
