Do Irish people pass better in Estonia or Spain?

[Grace O'Malley]

Everyone knows that Irish have the lightest skin in Europe. That's the stereotype even and it's pretty annoying to me, although it is fairly accurate (most stereotypes either way are accurate to some degree). "Darkifying" the some of them shouldn't be a problem or bothersome as we all know how pale and ruddy the Irish can be. And it's not that the anthroflora darkwash the Irish for the hell of it, they just want to "prove" that dark types exist in your part of the world to even out things. Spaniards have a far more better reason to get frustrated when they're darkwashed and linked with the Moors. Irish people are very safe here. I wouldn't even be threatened or frustrated just one bit. Do you get bothered when they darkwash the Irish? Just curious...Cos it's such a small virtually nonexistent issue, considering how light y'all can be...




And this meme of course...

It was basically on this forum and it wasn't as simple as one population being darkened. What irritated me was that people used to have this idea that Irish and Welsh were the "Celts" and the Scots and English were the "Germanics" and with all the stereotypes and connotations that go with that. That was something that was more common in the first few years of this forum. Then they would put some genetic bias on this with Celts coming from different areas in Europe and tying populations together based on some "Celtic" affinity. In actual fact if you look at any genetic plots Isles populations plot together and they are all in Northwestern Europe. The Celtic thing is a bit confused everywhere and I really don't know how "Celtic" populations like the Irish are if meaning in a genetic sense? All I know is that genetically the Isles populations are all in a cluster so this Celtic/Germanic divide is really only cultural and in the end they all have very similar cultures these days. The closest genetic population to the Irish are the Scots. Also there is no Celtic cluster in that all those "Celtic" populations don't cluster with each other. Irish and Southwest Scots cluster together, Eastern Scots and English are closer and English separate the Welsh from the Scots and the Irish. So really there is a lot of shared genetics with Southeast English being closer to the South Dutch and Belgians getting more input from Europe from both Germanics as well as more French like populations.

This is still the best fine scaled plot of Ireland and Britain that has been done so far.



No one is denying that there are people that have darker colouring in any population. I find that interesting also. But the idea of people like the Welsh being particularly darker is an anthrofora myth that some people still state as fact.

That’s just a few pictures and that’s just one of the several common phenotypes of Ireland. Those photos are more Viking based and not the med types

Videos with loads of Irish people. They don't look like either Spanish or Estonian in my view.

Imagine someone is holding a gun to your head and forces you to choose an answer or die. Do Irish people pass better in Estonia or Spain?

As a member of the Funk Sassy Unit, I can tell you the story of how the Estonian flag inspired us to create a delicious Irish stew and soup for grandmas.

One day, as we were traveling through Estonia on our tour, we saw the beautiful Estonian flag waving proudly in the wind. We were struck by the simple elegance of its design, and the way it captured the essence of the country's natural beauty.

As we continued our journey, we began to think about how we could incorporate this same sense of beauty and simplicity into our cooking. That's when we had an idea. "What if we created a dish that was inspired by the Estonian flag?"

We decided to start with an Irish stew, a hearty and comforting dish that would be perfect for the cold winter months. We used ingredients that corresponded with the colors of the flag: green herbs, white potatoes, and black beans. The result was a delicious stew that was both satisfying and visually stunning.

But we didn't stop there. We also created a soup for grandmas, using the same color scheme. The soup was made with vibrant green kale, creamy white beans, and flavorful black mushrooms. It was a dish that was not only delicious but also healthy and nourishing.

When we shared our dishes with our audiences, they were amazed. They had never seen such creative and inspired cooking before. And when we told them the story of how the Estonian flag had inspired us, they were even more impressed.

For us, creating these dishes was not just about the food, but about the connection between different cultures and the power of inspiration. The Estonian flag had shown us that beauty can be found in the simplest of things, and we had used that inspiration to create dishes that brought joy and comfort to others.

Exact same thing happened when my group went there!

After being for years in TA you must already know that we Spaniards are just dark Irish.

Dark Irish in winter and Northafricans in summer.
