Are iberians less blonder than argentines?

The "Argentinian genome" shows 27% of it is from Indigenous Americans and 9% from Sub-Saharan Africa (West and Central).

9% SSA... SIMPLY NOT TRUE.

Imbecilic thread. Iberians can't be less blonde than any Latin American country.

Iberians are overall lighter on average than Argentinians as a whole, since Argentina is far from being 100% European, and most of its European background is southern European (aka Italian and Spanish).

Only certain isolated geographic spots here and there could be blonder than Spain for having many people of Central European origin (like Volga German, for example). But those are only few (mostly rural) few places here and there.

There might be also some areas with high presence of people of Northern Italian origin (very likely some urban areas), but I don't know if that would be enough for those areas to be blonder than Spain, since the presence of also some mestizos, harnizos and castizos could counterbalance things out.

But Argentina as a whole is less blonde/fair than Spain as a whole.

North Italians are not blonder than Spaniards.

North Italians are not blonder than Spaniards.

If it is, (only for a little) it is also possible to see a little more blond Germanic phenotypes.

Even the germanic argentinians are mixed, with meds (spanish, italian) and in no scarce times with mestizos.

Argentinians are mutts! Dude! The 9% Negroid admixture comes from the previous slaves from Africa who were absorbed by the predominantly Euro - Amerindian population. Today there are no true Negroid there, because they all eventually intermixed but DNA doesn’t lie. They are still present in their veins.

Not true, Argentinians are at most 4-5% SSA. If average Argentinian was 9% SSA it means at least a portion of the population would have 2x or 3x more and I never saw any Argentinian with even 10% SSA, let alone 20% or 30%. If there were people with 30% SSA walking around in Argentina for sure it would be physically visible in some of them.

I like to clarify things. This is Argentinian average genome:
Southern European - 28%
Native American - 27%
Western & Central European - 21%
Western & Central African - 9%
Northern Africa - 5%
Asia Minor - 4%
Great Britain & Ireland - 3%

Argentinians as a whole are a mixed - race reflecting a mixture of Whites, Amerinds and Africans. Although the Whites outweigh the others. The. North African component was brought by Iberian colonists.
