Even if we follow this unproven stereotypes propably over a half of population would fall into neither category.

More Germanic, Slavic and Germanic are rather cultural terms. Culturally they got tons of cultural influence from Germany and Austria, but they speak language from Slavic group. Culturally they are like Germanic people speaking Slavic language without strong leftist toxic movements. Of course genetically they cluster much more with other Slavic nations but as I mentioned before Slavic, Germanic, Romance, Celtic etc are terms connected to culture

Possible in antiquity they had a more germanic (tribal) look to the peoples who inhabited modern day czech. But I would say from years of interbreeding they have a look of their own. Not to say there are outliers in the group.

Culturally and linguistically we're Slavic. I don't like this LARPing as being Germanic because we're ashamed of being associated with Russia or whatever. I would say most of the people I know look Slavic. I'm from the eastern part of the country. Maybe average people from the western part are different.
