    Default Did whiteness originate in the Mediterranean race?

    As anyone knows the med race is very ancient and Mediterraneans were not all one colour, lighter skinned meds have been recorded and it is likely that the first whites were of a Mediterranean persuasion, even the Cromagnids were said to be basically Mediterranean in body form.

    You look Spanish and want your looks to be perceived as local in England?

    Lol of course there are many Med and alpine influenced people in England so I don't think I look exotic here, it is the super blonde Scandinavian types that look more out of place than myself.

    Pure Med types look far more out of place than albino Scandinavian types

    That actually isn't true, albino types are perhaps 1% while pure or nearly pure meds are about 3 or 4%.

    Doesnt matter. England is a predominantly nordic country phenotypically so as a result really light types will always pass better than really dark ones.

    Darker skinned meds are virtually non existent in the UK but certainly there are meds that have a slightly tanned complexion that are common especially in southern England.
