How would you classify these "white" Filipinos?

[GaneshD'Souza]

What general phenotypes do they have, and where would they pass as a group? (Both parents in each family are Filipino)

[chociprasa]

They look Western European mixed with the average Filipino phenotype. Would’ve guessed them to be American.

They don't look mixed at all. Just white people.

Yeah, the examples in the OP don't look mixed, or have very little, not noticeable Asian admixture.

There are a lot more Spanish who are mixed with Filipinos, and they look noticeably different:

Did you mean American like from the US, or Latin American?

Do you think any of these (in the first post) can pass as Spaniards?

The people of the first post seem white people with no european admixture.

Also we can not know if they are philippinos or not.

The philippinos mestizos, mix of spanish-philippino austronesian, resemble like this:

Isabel Preysler (wife of Julio Iglesias)





Family Zóbel de Ayala, the richest ones in the country:



The girl on the left is Paula Zóbel, daughter of one of the Zobel´s (they boy is her argentinian husband)

^ The people in the first post are definitely full Filipino and still living in the Philippines. They're from famous families: Ayala, Aboitiz, Preysler, and Elizalde, and some lesser-known families like Gonzalez, Cabarrus, and Cardenas. They're the small minority that remained white by marrying other Spanish-Filipinos or other Europeans that came to the Philippines. In the 1800s, British, French, Swiss, and German businessmen and even whole families moved the Philippines and mostly married the Spanish. Spanish-Filipinos also married Americans when the Philippines was a US territory, but I dont think any of the families in the first post have married Americans. They're mostly just Spanish descent.

This is Paola Zobel's family. They still live in the Philippines.


Isabel Preysler looks mixed with native Filipino, but her sister Victoria looks completely white

She still lives in the Philippines. I've actually seen her and thought she was a foreign tourist

From the US.

[Lafaur]

They look like regular upper-middle class Andean Colombians or Venezuelans

How recurrent is the surname 'Jaramillo' between Pinoys?
