    Also, South America is a place, not a race. I dont see why people can understand how there are white Americans and Canadians but fail to grasp that many South Americans are white, too. Hell, Argentina is more white than the US is.

    There are plenty of White South Americans. As for west Asiatics, well, us Arabs and Iranians don't do that sort of thing.

    I can see why Arabs and Iranians don't consider themselves white in a Western World, but I also understand that is centered around a lot of politics. Levantines are white people to me otherwise, too. Dark whites, yes. But still white.

    Recently, I have just adopted a less nuanced definition of "white" with politics and feelings removed. To me, white is just someone who looks white or is a light skinned West Eurasian lol.

    debatable.
    Argentina's whiteness massively overrated from my experience. The country is like half mestizo. Also their whites are mostly southern euros who are not as white looking as white americans are.

    Argentina whiteness is overrated, the vast majority of people there - even the seemingly white ones - are not fully European.

    I've met three people from Argentina. One was extremely white with blonde hair and blue eyes, and the other two were extremely pale brunettes with blue eyes. I wouldn't have noticed any of them weren't white Americans until I heard them speak.

    Genetically, yes, but by phenotype, not really.

    Dude has a point, though. Although there are obviously either light skinned or mostly European descended minorities in those regions, it is absurd to downplay the fact that like 3/4 of the population if not more is brown.

    Cool. I met a couple from South Africa, both of them were white and had light features.

    As I said, people who are in the mestizo/castizo range are around 50% of Argentina's population. Moreover, the Whites over there are mostly Italians(including South Italians) and Iberians so not as white as White Americans who mostly descend from Brits and Germans.
    A lot of the darker southern euro folks would be considered to have a latino/ off white look in the Anglosphere and Northern Europe not white.
    I mean people like these fellas(both spaniards):
    Spoiler!


    It is possible to find crowds like this in "White Argentina":
    Spoiler!

    Groups of "White Argies".
    Spoiler!

    White in Argentina, but would look out of place among US. Whites/Canadians/ Northern Europeans because they are darker
    Let's get real, who is whiter looking, someone like Chris Pratt or someone like Xavier Hernandez and Cesc Fabregas (spanish footballers)? Rhetorical question.
    I'm not trying to pick on spaniards btw. I could post such people from Italy or Greece too.


    Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there aren't a lot of white Argentinians, but reading these forums I get the impression people are overrating their whiteness. It's still a mostly european country demographically, but has heavy "latino" (amerindian) influence. I think saying Argentina is whiter than the US is far fetched, they are on similar level. I would even argue US is whiter for the reasons I mentioned above.
