How "French" do you look V2

**~~dududud~~** · 08-06-2020, 10:35 AM

This is not a continuation of the topic of Samnium, because in my case, I only know certain parts of the North of France, in particular Picardy, Artois, French Flanders (in which I lived and spent my childhood) and I could not generalize to all of France. It is not a question of saying if you can pass in the "north of France", but in these villages precisely (because all the villages are not the same).

I do not classify, I just look at your facial features (not specially the pigmentation) and I try to assimilate your head to the people that I have known (natives, never foreigners), if I do not succeed it is because I have never met someone who looks like you (that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but I'm pragmatic).

I have never lived in Central-West and East, South-West and East, nor in Brittany, nor in Alsace (over several years, I mean).

My answer will be "yes" or "no", so no wasting time with unnecessary notes.

Yes, means that I can assimilate your facial features to natives that I have known.
No, it means that I cannot assimilate your facial features to the natives that I have known (coming from different villages).

I am ready to receive your "No".

I suspect maybe too British looking but France has Germanic and Celtic ancestry so maybe 5/10 or atypical.

From my experience: I have already met native redheads, but never with "Anglo-Saxon" features (caricaturally). So I would say no, from my experience.

PS: I still specify that I am not saying that this kind of traits do not exist elsewhere, but I have not lived in all the villages of the North of France, just in certain corners where I spent a large part of my childhood (small villages too, with local features), so the fact that I can be categorical, since when you live in a town with 600/1000 inhabitants and very few immigrants (because poor area) you start to recognize familiar features.

You remind me of a childhood friend, a native of Douai, and some other individual (also my cousin, from my Northern french family). So I would say yes.
