A very indigenous-looking Filipina from a Spanish-mixed family. What would they be classified as?

[GaneshD'Souza]

In Latin American terms, what would they be classified as?

She's on the left side. And her mother is on the right side. The mother is also Filipina, but mixed with Spanish, obviously.


Her mother's parents


Her father. I don't think there's any Spanish on his side


Some angles the mother looks Filipino and other angles she looks European

I'm just surprised that the daughter doesn't look like she has even a drop of European. If I didn't know her and she told me she was 25% European, I would laugh at her. If they all went to Latin America, what would she, her mother, and her father be considered?

Indo-mestiza for the daughter? She looks like a regular Filipina. I thought you call people like her "china"

What about her parents? What would they be considered?

No, she looks typical Indo-mestiza amerindian. Mestiza mother (not definity) father is not common here..

This is news to me because she looks completely Filipino. Like if I had posted her pic before and said that she was 25% European, people would probably laugh and say "No, she's a china" Even in the Philippines, we would not consider her any type of mestiza- just straight up morena

Here's another video where you can clearly see her. The only thing slightly atypical for a Filipina (woman) is her face shape is a little long. Most Filipinas have rounder faces than Filipino (men)

And I don't agree that she would pass in Mexico.

The woman you posted looks completely different. Maybe I should have just posted the woman without her family and without mentioning that she's part Spanish. Then I would have seen all the "china" and "chinita" comments. She looks completely Filipina
