    No, that's just my closest experience with Turkish people. They do seem darker than the average to me, just like the actors of your TV series are lighter (the other end of the spectrum). My opinion of course isn't based only on the folks I saw there, but also on the Turkish tourists I encountered in Belgrade and all the photos and videos on the Internet and other media that show Turkish people. I may not have seen all the 80 million of your countrymen, but I've seen enough to form an opinion.

    You formed an opinion based upon Alanya and Belgrade .

    You are of the opinion that Turks are "Darker Skinned" .




    Personally i don't really know the ratio between dark and light skinned Turks ; simply put this is a question that has never occurred to me.

    No Turk can in fact tell you the exact ratio because no one really cares about it .

    Your nation is 7 million ; it would not be incorrect to say there are more light skinned people in Turkey than there are in your country.

    If you come across a Turk online who happens say that they are light skinned they are merely telling the truth ; not lying .

    Turks are both dark and light skinned people.

    It's not an opinion that is exclusive to me. I know that Turkey has light-skinned people too, but when your typical crowd looks like this it's hard to believe they aren't the minority.

    That opinion which is not an exclusive to you is actually a piece of propaganda , perpetuated by anti Turks.


    I wonder if you realize it ?

    Whatever. If it makes you feel any good, keep believing that most of those swarthy Turks are just turkified Kurds and Arabs.

    it would make you feel good if only you realize the fact that your opinion is actually incorrect .

    Realising this " truth " actually would help you set free ; as truth always set one free .


    Turkish people don't think like you about the skin colour .


    Really , No One Gives a Single Fuck about it .



    Since there are millions of light skinned Turks as well as millions of dark skinned Turks ; your laughs are at off your own expense .


    Dude you can't even imagine a World where your skin colour matters not !!!

    All men are equal before death .

    If you really had no interest in skin color and anthropological characteristics of different nations, you wouldn't be posting on this forum and arguing with me.

    Actually my interest in skin colour is more genuine than yours but my reasons are medicinal while yours are social .

    I am not arguing with you but merely pointing out a fallacy of your opinion about Turks .

    You may adjust your laugh or not ;obviously it is up to you .

    Turks like to laugh last .
