romani and rajasthani gypsies

[Mortimer]

i never travelled india but what i see from pictures. the rajasthani ones are more diverse in features and physics than the ones from southeastern europe (because i didnt travelled and saw romani from other parts of the world). while rajasthani are often lighter or darker and physically more diverse than romani from southeastern europe, the european ones are more uniform and monolithic (quiete the look alikes) and i dont count obviously european-mixed ones like fortis in arduis or even me (while i can fit better as a romani than fortis though).

romani with 4 romani grandparents look quiete like those people in the video all of them alike.

... what do you think? overall i would say the rajastani ones have something off to them as a group. there is overlap but as a group they are a bit different, if you observe with close eye.

The lighter ones can pass as Latin Americans.

First chicks hot. One of the last ones looks like a tranny.

its about fine difference between rajasthani and romani gypsies. just saying. i dont know if all people got the point and if they know who is who on the pictures.

Yes, they are definitely different. You don't seem to be the same people. I don't think they are Gypsies. Maybe they're some kind of nomads, but not Gypsies?

They remind me more of Bedouins.

Try this method,

I can recognize a Slav even if he lives in a different country and speaks the language, is racially mixed with the natives and identifies as a native. It's very obvious. The same should apply to you as a Gypsy, meaning you should be able to recognize Gypsies anywhere. If these people do not set off your Gypsy radar then they're not Gypsies.

Thank you. Thats why im against sharing communality with them like Fortis wants. It would be wrong just for the sake of improving our numbers in the world. We are romani gypsies, we have a race and caste identity. We are different. I want a pure gypsy land not mixed communality with nomads around the world.

Last time I checked there were no gypsies in Prussia or Crete. Only in Ano Liossia! :D

IM, get a colony of rajasthani gypsies and settle them in Serbia, come back few centuries laters and you will see that their descendants will look like today`s Balkan gypsies.

Balkan gypsies was probably looking similar to them few centuries ago but they have been mixed with locals over the time and became today`s gypsies in Balkans.

no gypsies looked a few centuries ago like they look today. portraits and ancient pictures of 16th century prove it.
