There are as many white Italians as swarthy Germans or Russians. These few individuals are just a freak of nature, nothing more.

No, it's because southern Italians have West Asian influences in their genome.

Sure, but mostly they are in north. I only talk about the average, though. You can find super white andalusians and southern italians.

So this was what the the PMs was for! :D

This girl even looks Amerind in my honest opinion

Many TA members think Italian-identity revealed person must be Italian but most of them can't see some random ID-hidden swarthy S.Italian as Italian..

Your threads' votes/posts simply lack credibility

I doubt that and would say there is a North African influence present in Italians!

I absolutely agree with you but as I said that's just a freak of nature and not the norm.

There is a Levantine and Phoenician influence in Sicily, for instance.
The way you're describing things as if it's by chance you find people like that.. but it's not.. it's because it's in their genes.

Just like you would be taken as 1/4 Asian 3/4 White in some parts of US :thumb001:

It's not a big sample size, but the full-Italian posters on this board (myself included) don't look very woggy on average; at least the ones who have posted their photos don't.
