How many Mexicans can easily pass in Brazil (and vice-versa)?

[Italicus]

I don't doubt It my friend I don't , Amerindians are not pure mongoloid, as Chinese or other Asian groups so that could be many reasons why some people come out more European looking than what they truly are.

I'm sure this guy with the new update will be 46% European yet looks much European/Caucasoid than any 46% Euro Brazilian you simply won't find any to look as Caucasoid as him .

If this guy told me I'm 80% European and 20% Turkic I swear I will not questioned.

That's because black blood is STRONG AF. I'm pretty sure if I was 25 percent black I wouldn't look nearly as white as I am.

[Incal]

Very few.

[Hasien]

Very few.

Mexicans are more likely to pass than the other way around since SSA traits are almost none existing in Mexico.

[Thetruth]

Non Euro Brazilians are too SSA and pure Native Brazilians look different and more East Asian looking than Mesoamericans and are too few in numbers. While Mexico does not have much SSA and the main non Euro component is Native American. Culturally, Brazil is the epitome of New world rootless cosmopolitanism, with no ancient heritage, more sexually charge moores, is more influenced by modern Western culture and is very tropical mentally. Mexico culturally differs from brazil in that it has a strong Pre Columbian template (day of the dead, local festivals) and a sense that that they have ancient roots in the land in a way that the average Brazilians lack although Mexican is technically not an ethnicity. Also Western culture in Mexico is more old school, retaining some late Middle ages Castilian customs that died out even in modern EU Spain such as aggressive Machismo culture and obsessive control of female sexuality, sometime that is non existent in more liberal Brazil. Mexico seems to be more organic country than Brazil, probably the most old World like New World nation along with the Andean countries

I think Brazil does have areas like that as well like the Northeast, even the US has it, the American Deep South is actually the most similar place to a lot of Latin American countries in the entire United States. The only place of Brazil that has that so called sexual liberation is Rio and São Paulo and those places are more comparable to major cities.

In general the white/near white population of both countries pass better in each other countries than the rest of their respective populations.

However, there is also a decent minority of Brazilian mestizos who would have no much trouble on passing as Mexicans.

Fixed!

Fixed!

I agree with your fix. Besides Northern Brazil, there must be many Brazilian mestizos in Mato Grosso do Norte and Sul, and other parts of the interior of Brazil.

The Central-West and the Northeastern and Northern regions of Brazil have many mestizos along with many triracials that can look pseudo mestizo on their phenotypes...

From the Central West region: the Mato-Grosso's state along with Goiás have also some triracials and pardos but the number of mestizos are probably higher.

From the Northern region: The state of Rondônia have many Mestizos but also many Caucasians(probably the higher number of euros in the North), Tocantins(the state that i was born) have also very big number of Mestizos, but also many triracials and Euro+african pardos.

Very similar description to the ethnography of many Venezuelan interior states, and even coastal states like Nueva Esparta and great part of Zulia state (that due to their semi-Arid climates didn't received many African slaves in colonial times).

[Latinus]

That's a very good question, when it comes to whites of both countries, they are interchangeable, and I think Brazil has 25-30% of pure caucasoid Euro faces.

Your average Brazilian pardo is more SSA than Amerindian shifted, so many Brazilian pardos would look off in Mexico, like this guy:


But Brazil has a good number of mestizo phenotypes all over the country, more in inland areas of northeast, center-west and north, this last region being the most Amerindian of the country, so I think 35-40% of Brazilians can easily fit in Mexico.

Mexicans that would stand in a group here in the most populous regions are these heavily Amerindian types:


For Mexicans to pass easily in Brazil, they:
- Should be Iberian looking.
- Mestizo, but that more balanced/Euro shifted type, or the ambiguos type that look pan-Latin American, hard to to tell it apart from triracials.

For Brazilians to easily pass in Mexico:
- No significant SSA imput in their phenotype.
