Genetic Ancestry depending self classified race

Sadly 81% of locations are South/Southeast. It would be cool to see more studies focused in other parts of brazil such as center west and north.

Nada nuevo. Lo que yo por lo menos ya sabía.

What i like about showing different studies/results together is that they are all quite similar. They seem consistent

Genetic Ancestry depending self classified race

Brazilians have a very good racial sense...
In most cases genetics match very well with their self identification. Very good!!

Heck, I'm basically the "Common White Braziian guy" being 81/10/7/1

Only curious point is that "White" people in Salvador are more Afro than Pardo people in all Southern Brazil and Salvador Pardos got a higher White score too lol

The point here is phenotype and some OWDism, since some people don't accept they are mixed and prefer to be called white.

You are white really.
The fact why you have a sui generis look in my opinion is your central asian ancestry...

I mean, for all reasons I'm white in Brazil, even if I try to push harder (sometimes people mistake me as Half Asian as I said many time before, anyway). Even if I would say "MENA looking" (Being Turkish, Iranian or Coastal North African), all still white here, so whatever.
