    Default Do Southern Europeans get offended when they're likened to West Asians?

    When I see an ambiguous looking Southern European/West Asian I usually go 'is he Italian or Lebanese?, 'Syrian or Greek'?......That's the norm assertion in the real world when we want to identify or ethnically analyze someone. But in these boards, it's a taboo to put a Middle Eastern nationality next to a European one.......and you're called dumb.

    Normal people: Hm he must be either Italian or Lebanese....
    Nobody: Look at this girl, must be either Irish or Greek....

    But 'nobody' is the board Apricity boards nowadays!

    Don't forget the cultural heritage Greece shares with Anatolia Nassbean.

    For example,



    Africa and particularly these Moroccan drug dealers are French civilization though,



    They can even cluster more closely together depending on the locality.

    The average joe in some New World country could mistake a Lebanese with an Italian, trust me, you should keep in mind that both are mostly meds, even if bothers you, that is the reality, not everyone knows everything about anthropology, but if anything the Lebanese resemble Greeks the most...

    Being mostly Med doesn't necessarely mean looking that similar and it obviously does not bother me i know that but i just said that you can tear them apart usually.
    It is equally obvious to say that the overlap exists

    Many people thought i was an arab and muslim in several East Asian countries.If you’ve a dark facial hair and it’s long then you can not be an European.

    An European person should be tall, blue eyed and blond in their eye.

    What an ignorant little bastards.

    Many on this forum do and many of them demean West Asian ethnicities in order to reinforce their European identity. I am not saying Southern Euros are like West Asians by the way. They are very diverse all the way from Spain to Greek islands.

    I would day is rather the contrary: many haters try to associate South Europeans with West Asian or North African ethnicities in order to undermine their European identity.
    This thread is a clear example.
