Are Serbians really stereotyped as dark?

[caviezel]

Someone else told me Serbians are stereotyped as dark in hair color and sometimes even in skin complexion but this guy was casted to play a Serbian American in Four Friends (1981) and nobody bat an eye. He would have never been casted to play a Sicilian or a Greek.

Yes Serb people are way darker than other slavs for the reason they are partialy Slavs partially natives.

Just like Northern Italians who are half germans half romans.

Who really cares,, nothing wrong with being darker,,being dark does not mean much,, features also matter if someone is WOG or not.

People here are too obsessed with dark/light. Where being lighter is better! I do not play those politics. I dye my hair black and tan in the summer,, most people in real life like a nice healthy tan,, TA is not real life.

Serbians are lovely people. Come to think of it as far as I know I never met someone from the Balkans except a Croat who was part of some sort of weird Christian cult, Albanian kid at the local pizzeria, and a Bosnian kid I met for ten seconds.

Where you hiding Balkanoids?

Such crap,, "Northern Italian are half Germans and half Romans",, sounds like you just made that up. Italians are Italians nothing more or less than that.

North Italians are neither Germans nor Romans, they are Gauls.

In the year 2018 they are just Italians. I am not a fan of these division politics. They speak Italian and identify as Italians.

Gauls?

Lombards (Langobards) are not Gauls but germanic tribe that slaughtered many people in Italy.

Lombards actually were all over Italy at different points in time,, it doesn't mean they are Germanic people.

Lets get back on topic this is about light vs dark for Serbs.

What Italians?

Italians were invented few hundred years ago.

The nation was called Lombardy cause it was settled and conquered by Germans, those people then conquered Rome in 7th century, usurped Papacy from Constantinople and created "Italian" Nation.

Modern Italians.... except those people in south are mixed with Germanic people on a large scale.

If you are looking for true Italians go to Sicily, Catalonia, Greece even Anatolia.
