As a whole, do Syrians or Venezuelans look more European?

Everyone who is not dark skinned is considered white in the entire Latam, hence you must expect it to happen for levantines.

Not always. It depends on the country, region, or even neighborhood. In those parts of Latin America (be it countries, regions or neighborhoods, where there are many real whites of full or at least heavily European descent people) people have a more strict view of what they consider white or not.

In Venezuela for example, in a place like lets say Barlovento (a heavily black lowland coastal pocket located in the east of Miranda state) they surely must have a very loose standard of who they consider white. Any light skinned triracial would be seen as "white" in there. But on the other hand, in middle to upper class neighborhoods of eastern Caracas, or some other middle to upper class neighborhood of other large Venezuelan cities that received many European immigrants, or in the Venezuelan Andes (where there are lots of white creoles and Euro-mestizos), most people would consider white only to people who looks convincingly European, because people in those places are more exposed to come across with people who are full or very heavily European mixed (above 80-85% Euro) background.

Are Lebanese seen as White in Venezuela or not?

Are Lebanese seen as White in Venezuela or not?

They do, but because many of them would pass in southern Europe, but Moroccans, for example (there are not Moroccans in Venezuela, but is just an example) would not.

[Blondie]

Venezuelans of course.
White venezuelans are europeans, mixed persons also have european blood and culture. Syrians are 100% middle eastern, non european mostly with islam culture.

Venezuelans

Don't post these SLANDEROUS threads, TC. Syrians are far too fair to fit in Europe, while some darker Venezuelans have a chance at passing in South Italy (Black).
