How can I be "european" and be this dark? Serious -haha

[lustermoo]

No, perfectly normal looking for an Iberian is what is an exaggeration. He is perfectly exotic.

Doesn’t matter if he’s darker than average or not, if he walks in his native place and is seen as a local which he would be, he is still within a spectrum of normal

Well, that would not happen in Spain but after all, he is not Spanish

[Damião de Góis]

Don’t exaggerate and make him feel insecure for no reason, he’s perfectly normal looking for an Iberian, there’s no reason to say this.

The fact the he looked south asian when he was a kid should be enough to stop discussing if he's typical or not. Kids here don't look south asian.
But maybe in the diaspora they do, i wouldn't know. It would explain why Hamilcar thinks moroccans are lighter or why you compare them to iraqis.

And you look more typical. I can see in your profile picture you are like a real Portuguese conquistador.

His profile picture is about a Portuguese historian and humanist, not a conquistador.

You are welcome.

You really took that comment to heart? I explained I placed him inside and outside of Europe, I said northern Iraqi because he reminded me of a northern Iraqi friend of mine, I never said the populations are close whatsoever, trust me I’m the last person to whitewash MENAs

He didn’t look south Asian as a kid.

I have never seen a dark Portuguese or Spaniard that is a real iberian stock. This user must have been half Gypsy or something. Before the invasion of moors, these countries were as pale as sweden.

Naturally within a population you will have people who are lighter...darker...in the middle, nothing crazy.

Skin pigmentation alone doesn't tell us so much. There are fairer triracial people and even quadroons and East Asians, and they don't belong to Caucasians while he does.
