Are Serbians really stereotyped as dark?

[The Illyrian Warrior]

It's not really large compared to the other countries where gypsies live. There are haplogroup H carriers among Albanians too, meaning you people also mixed with them.

600k is really a large number, H is literally inexistent in Albanians on any testing company you'd pick in.

That's the one I was referring to. It was from south Albania. There aren't that many Gypsies in Serbia, people forget that they emigrate too just like all the other citizens.

Have you even been in your country? Just go around Nis and you'd see that how big the gypsy community is there.

You don't know how many of them there are. Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary have more Gypsies than we do.

I don't know about Nis, but in Belgrade they are very few outside the suburbs (there used to be more but they moved away). It's the same thing in Vojvodina and in Sumadija their number is compeletly negligable.

It would be the wise thing to close this thread.

Serbians and other south Slavs are as dark as gypsies anyone who says otherwise is a militant propagandist. You have to be smoking finely crushed electronic circuit board material to question the dark Serbian "stereotype".

[octavyo]

This is bullshit. Serbians are not darker than other South Slavs. Bosniaks and Montenegrins are darker IMO, and even Bulgarians.

Serbians mostly have brown hair and light brown eyes probably 70% of people. 15-20% have blue eyes and more pale skin. 15-20% have real black hair and sometimes darker skin.
But there are usually other physical characteristics that goes with color of hair/eyes/skin that are more noticeable then just a pigment.

Indian-Americans are far far higher than European-Americans.

You're a BALKANITE, you're considered the trash of Europe. The only Slavs who are somewhat intelligent are Russkies and Ukrainians, usually employed by Indians in IT.

Gypsy isn't a term used to refer to Indians, moron.

Lol, one of the founders of Google was born in Russia.

Balkanites can be pretty smart though. I know a few from the Balkans who work in tech and they seem quite put together and intelligent. It's pointless to compare them with a country like India, who out of 1.3 billion will probably create enough smart-asses that are better than most countries anyways.

In Hollywood Serbians are not stereotyped as dark but as "russians" or "very slavic" but that is not true, serbs are more like albos and greeks.

Gauls?

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

North Italians are hybrid between Gaul/Celtic-Roman and Germanic influence, all combined into one. Simple.

That's why you have North Italians who looks Roman, Celtic or Germanic or even all three in one.

On the other hand South Italians are hybrid between Greeks-Romans-Illyrians-Sikuli (the oldest society there) and somewhat Norman influence but not much.
