Would Indians pass as European if they were White?

That's my oppinion, too, but do not forget the Australoids (aboriginal Australians). They are in a category by themselves... Probably the same Australoid element makes Indians look so ugly (in our non-Indian eyes).

how can these Apes be considered Humans?



you are right Indians/Gypsies have strong admixture with them, thats why they are so hideous to look at

No, even mixed European-Indians still cannot pass as White, there is another thread up on this with half-Indians half-Irish/Swede/English/German etc. They still don't look like typical Whites. Although they look predominantly Caucasoid, they still don't look pure.

What is a "typical" white though?

Even Eastern Europeans don't look like typical Anglo/Germanic whites. If you mean "white" as in "European" (a very general term) then yes I would say a South Asian with WHITE skin would pass as a European.

They would look European, albeit very atypical ones. Remember, most Indians are still relatively Caucasoid, meaning by sole basis of facial features they wouldn't look "alien" to Europe so to speak.

Yes a good amount of them would pass as white if their skin was white but its not common. The majority of indians I saw when I went there would pass as Black more than white. I was in the central part when I visited, the North is a different story. You'll find white indians there.

Let's look at Albino Indians. I say yes. I've seen rednecks that look like them. Maybe not all.

Imran Khan, who is of course Pakistani, could pass for European. That is about as close at it gets.

Nikki Haley is also a very "white" Indian American, and could possibly pass for European if you did not note her South Asian features.

But they are not typical.
