are English people pure Anglo-Saxon ?

[Daco Celtic]

No, according to a study by AncestryDNA English barely break 40% Anglo-Saxon at the most. Yorkshire was found to have the highest percentage of British (Anglo Saxon) ancestry (41.17%). Of course, this won't stop certain half Irish New Worlders on TA (see prior page) from pretending to be "Anglo-Saxon" when they are less than 25%.

Americans have a weird obsession with being 'Irish'. However, the joke is on them because anyone with half a brain knows Irish don't stand a chance against the British or French in any kind of war whatsoever -- war, technology, leaders of Western Civilization etc.. the Irish may have their virtues but they are really an insignificant small Island and I say that as someone with a hiberno-norman name. The normans started it all they normans or British through the Cambro-Normans first started colonizing Ireland.

AncestryDNA is mentally retarded AmeriKwan science run by Mormons instead of Atheists or Anglicans. Fuck AncestryDNA ! AncestryDNA ? Run by Mormons (not WASPs check !) and 23andme is run by Jews (not WASPs check !). It is a pretty sad day when I have to trust a Polish man or crypto German Davidski over Americans here :

I am originally from the New World like Boris Johnson not sure if I am more Anglo-Saxon or norman or whatnot since my name is hiberno-norman. AncestryDNA is trash it says I'm Irish and Scottish mostly. How the fuck is that when one grandmother was English and another was kraut or South Dutch bomb ? I guess it is possible I'm Scottish but Irish is out of the question -- kraut bombs can do that to a man ! Sorry, broham but the Irish and Germans have nothing to do with each other mix together a German, an Irishman and then mix the result into a lowlandScot/Southern English mix or an English mix and you get a British person or new kind of anglo-saxon mix my man. Americans pick and choose what identity they want to identify with so many choose Irish meanwhile they have been hit with at least one kraut bomb or Italian bom or something ! Americans hate the English so much that they pick and choose what part of their ancestry to celebrate.

AncestryDNAs Anglo-Saxon category is retarded it more likely should be called North Sea ( but Baltic might also be added ?!) . My Eurogenes K15 from genoplot :

North Sea 35.52
Atlantic 27.37
Baltic 9.95
Eastern Euro 9.71
West Med 9.06
West Asian 4.84

etc.. everything under 1 submerged likely statistical noise

This is how Irish I am motherfucker :

Here is my G25 (I don't like G25 for modern populations ):

Distance to: Kevin_scaled
0.02865262 West_and_Central_Europe: Dutch
0.02966312 Scandanavian: Norwegian
0.03097093 British_Isles:Welsh

With G25 I can model myself this way :

Target: KevinG_scaled
Distance: 1.9624% / 0.01962356
42.8 England_IA (Ancient Briton or Welsh)
32.0 ISL_Viking_Age_Pre_Christian (Icelandic viking)
25.2 SVK_Poprad_MA (Deutschendorf kraut )

^ guess what ? If you mix that viking with kraut you basically getting a Saxon ! Why split hairs with this shit man ? That is why Eurogenes K15 is beautiful thing it does not split hairs like that.

Dutch can be a proxy for English with these things some British people are more Dutch or Danish on average.

Anyway , I might be somewhat Anglo-Norman than Anglo-Saxon, at least according to G25, but who cares ? How the fuck is that 'Irish' ? I'm like Lowland Scottish or Norwegian, English, Irish or Welsh and kraut or South Dutch that mix cannot be 'Irish' my nigga kraut bombs are too strong ! Half of Britons have German blood , it has been proven genetically, and many English people have an Irish grandparent. I have an Irish grandparent but he looks more Welsh to me.

If you really want to split hairs then :

Yourndaportal models me as

Celtic_Briton : 40% (Welsh or native British)

Germanic_Suebi : 30% ( Swaefas tribe from Swaffham England )

Anglo-Saxon : 10%

Gaul_Santones : 10% (from the normans perhaps)

Viking_Sweden_Malmo : 10% (from the normans, lowland Scots or Danelaw)

At some point you just have to step back be like WTF man ? Why am splitting apart Swabians from Saxons from Vikings when if you mix those together you roughly getting a Saxon anyway ?

[Anglo-Celtic]

That map is about light hair (blonde + light brown + red).

Pure blondism in England is around 30%:

Spoiler!

The South has the highest POP of redheads in my country at 7%. The highest is in a certain section of the Appalachians (no "Deliverance" jokes, please).

[Sandman]

These English footballers from the national team don't look like Germanic at all.

[Singer of Songs]

Not 100% pure Anglo-saxon, no. Some areas have high amounts though.

English are a mix of native Britons, Anglo-saxons, Normans and smaller amounts of other things like Norse invaders.

My own ancestry is about 50% lowland Scottish, 25% English and 25% Northern Irish
I consider myself Germanic firstly because of my language and background but acknowledge my ancestry is Germanic-Celtic mixture

[Anglo-Celtic]

People with predominantly Celtic ancestry aren't just brunette or redheaded;- they also have blond Celtic people amongst them too. So why do some people think blond hair means a person has Germanic ancestry or Viking ancestry - given that not all Vikings and not all Germanic people are blond.

Am I tripping, or do some of these Cornish girls have tiny heads? My blockhead self isn't judging anybody's head size, but are "shrunken heads" common for this part of England?

[Sagez]

Unfortunately not.

personal opinion: some pass quietly in Italy, I have identified 6 in the last photo with somatic traits easily found among ethnic Italians
1) the dark-blonde guy in the bottom middle
2) the two boys on the right above, one is keeping his elbow on the other's shoulder
3) the last boy on the top left, the boy next to him and the boy below them

Instead the most stereotypically British boy seems to me the boy immediately to the right of the first one i wrote


Also in the third photo some of those girls pass quietly

[Cynewise]

My ancestors are from SE England so I would think I could have substantial Anglo-Saxon ancestry. I'm looking for more studies on this.

[Sheppey]

Some probably are but most probably aren't it seems to me to be that simple , really.
