He didnt questioned it. I was drunk and he was a friend of the neo-nazis. Do you think he was really a white spaniard from the USA? Or maybe he was austrian who fooled me? He was blonde a blue eyed and looked germanic.
    He was probably part Spaniard, but one thing to take in account is that the vast majority of Americans are stupid as dog shit about ethnicities, so he probably didn't know what an ethnic Greek really looked like. Imo, you could pass as Turkish, but if I was you I'd make a thread asking the European members on here who probably know Greece pretty well, if you could pass in Greece.

    Americans are not the only ones who are stupid about ethnicities, austria is almost a neighbour of serbia but they mistake them for gypsies, a friend of mine was surprised i write a blonde serbian girl from berlin, she was surprised she is serbian and blonde, i told her serbians are majority brown haired like italians but still european and there are blondes too.

    Germany is showing us what could soon happen to us in Austria with a left-wing Austro traffic light. Do we want a situation where we can no longer choose the heating system, but we can choose the gender? Hardly likely!

    I don't blame ya, but if you like guns, it's a great place to live in. You should definitely visit, I'm kinda curious what people would assume you to be, my guess is the vast majority would think you were Mexican Puerto Rican, or Guatamalen, at least in my area.

    I think Guatemalan is a stretch maybe a more european version of mexican or puerto rican, mexicans also can be diverse, some look more amerindian and short dark etc. and some are closer to southern europeans, guatemalan is a stretch i think they are predominantly amerindian right? Or are you being sarcastic? Like the other guy is obviously sarcastic saying I look like Idris Elba he is predominantly afro american

    Yeah, Mexicans and Ricans are extremely diverse in my experience being around them a lot. Most look Castizo imo. And, not sarcasm, I've seen a few Guatemalens that look similar to you. But, I'm talking on what Americans would guess you as, and I can see a lot assuming you to be a central American ethnic group like Guatemalens.

    Then they must be very ignorant but maybe they are ? I never saw a guatemalan only on pictures, but guess them to be similar to those others like bolivians and such, they look very different then me.
