What is exactly an "Eastern European" look?

[LostSoul]

I don't know, if Slavs breathed the better air and if it wasn't cold (here in Poland, it gets way too hot, sometimes), they would have looked the same as Western Europeans, I guess.

[LostSoul]

Sorry, wrong thread, it had to be on "Anthropology". LOL

[LittleDarkAge]

Eastern European phenotypes: Baltid, Pre-Slavic, Gorid, Pontid, Neo Danubian, and East Nordid.

I don't know, I would probably blame bad air quality in those countries, the fact that they smoke a lot and all that stuff, which results in uneven gray skin color and freakishly pale appearance. The rare presence of sun is also a factor, I think.

There are other differences besides skin color. Eye shape, skull shape, nose shape...

[Komintasavalta]

If you base your idea of "eastern" phenotypes on something like humanphenotypes or the SNPA website, keep in mind that they were made by a German and a Norwegian.

These are morphs of teams in the 2021 junior hockey world championship (https://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?340593-Hockey-under-20-teams-from-world-championships/page2&p=7078477#post7078477). Can you tell which is Russian and which is German?

https://i.ibb.co/9NQRGgG/b.jpg

These are combined morphs of Slavic teams (Czech Republic, Russia, and Slovakia) and Germanic teams (Austria, Germany, Sweden, and Switzerland). Which is which?

https://i.ibb.co/pbRp0yF/a.jpg

Answer:

Russia is on the right, Slavic is on the left.

The photos of different teams were taken under different conditions, so differences in skin color and head shape are caused by factors like differences in lighting and camera distance.

From what I have seen, the typical slav has a potato, shallow facial structure, slack-jawed, recessed chin, small eye space, no cheekbones and large, bumpy round head.

What on Wykop (Polish Reddit) users say, it's "polacka morda" or "polacki ryjec", your description is accurate, actually.
Receding hairline ('zakola' in Polish) is also their complaint.

I don't care, how their faces look like, though. I think, they could change their hairstyles, like they don't have to wear fade cut or buzz cut all the time. Flow hairstyle, shag, long hair etc. could look nice on them.

I don't understand what for such tone to him. This time he didn't do nothing wrong. He is very accurate with this phenotypes at least for Poland and even includes recent migrants

[reboun]

I think nutrition and climate have an influence on phenotype but they are not only factors. Ancestry affects too.

You're quite naive, man. If you think that his post was a little more than an insulut attempt, you should get some 'people smarts' first.

TBH, I also hate such generalizations. Ok, when it comes to me, I kinda look Slavic, some people remarked, because of my youthful look, round face and almost no cheekbones, but I have an aquiline nose and dark hair. And I think, not every Polish person looks like that caricature that people have on mind. Educated people, certainly don't look like that. That's an awful stereotype that every Polish person looks like a pathology (patologia in Polish).

On the lighter note (because I also have some sense of humor), I found this.

You have to understand one thing, hun. The guy I've replied to is no neutral observer, but a notorious troll. Now, that post of his was not meant to be some empirical, objective stuff, it was meant to annoy you and other Slavs reading the thread. Anyhow, thanks for the clarification, but I'm not here to discuss physical anthropology.

No, I wasn't that annoyed by him. That's just one of the views and I appreciate everybody has different views.

I didn't say you were and that wasn't anywhere near the point anyways. You still don't get it, hun. Don't appreciate everybody who has whatever shit to say. You evaluate first. And then you look at the context. I would bet my heart for a dollar and I would be confident to win in there. Learn to read between the lines.

Look influenced by types rare in Western Europe (Baltid, Pontid/North Pontid, Neo-Danubian, etc.).

I agree with you that they could pass unnoticed in western europe, the difference is very minor, most people dont know what gorid or baltid is or east nordid. And it is very similar to other north europeans. I watched some videos "which country do you hate the most" and in one they asked ukranians. They could be swedes, danes, norwegians, germans, too.

Oh, your sense of humour ended :)

Slavic speakers went through a genetic bottle neck about 3000 years ago. The Finns are mixed Uralic and Scandinavian people, obviously being more mixed than Slavs. The Finnish yDna is 30% Iron Age Scandinavian I1, 60% Iron Age Uralic N1c and the rest R1a and R1b. The slavs are still same Bronze Age R1a+I2.

I agree that most people won't be able to tell who's Eastern Euro and who's Western Euro. The examples posted before are cherry-picked to the max to make us all fit the stereotypes. When I posted myself for classification most users gave me some sort of Western/Northern phenotype (Alpinid, Brünn, etc) despite me being Polish. Phenotypes don't mean anything.

Aren't Finns one of the most genetically secluded groups in Europe?

[Lemminkäinen]

Aren't Finns one of the most genetically secluded groups in Europe?

Maybe one of the most secluded, but far more mixed than Russian Uralics. The difference between Finns and Balts is not big and taking into account only West Finns the result would be upside-down. Here are global HBD scores. Average HBD length figures the overall admixture rate.

I don't think so, hair is a feminine trait, all men look better w/shaved hair (except big eared ones)

them apart from Italians and their Island counterparts.

[Linebacker]

Anyone with a short hairstyle and a Nike/Adidas/Puma tracksuit automatically starts looking Eastern European.

[CordedWhelp]

They’re not genetically the same. Different looks here from NW-ers will be genetic. NE-ers are a genetically sound group because of that “Balto-Slavic drift” plus extra WHG, and slightly more complex Steppe ancestry. Slightly.

Add to your list uneven skin color (grey or red), too.
Man, I'm pretty controversial one, to some people I looked Western Euro, to the other I looked Eastern Euro (probably because I was not exposed to sun, enough), some people gave me some "Atlantid", other gave me either "North Pontid" or "Gorid".
The closest phenotype of myself I think is Dinarid + Atlantid + Alpine, but that is my opinion.

[Golden Lining]

It's more of a cumulation of specific traits very common in the East, and the specific traits being mostly absent in the West. Even their blond haired people have a different shade than you find in the West.

Lookswise the change North to South is more "gradual", but even East Germans look different from Poles, despite admixture. The Oder is now a real anthropological border.
