[Sikeliot]

For Sicily, #2. For Poland, #1. Neither for Portugal really but #2 if you forced me to pick.

And for general White Americans, number 1?

[JohnSmith]

All of them can.

[Tooting Carmen]

All of them can.

Do you mean as Americans or as Italians?

I am an American, not Italian.

[Tooting Carmen]

I said ethnicity/nationality. But OK: in the US, where would set one pass better and where would set two pass better?

In the USA I identify as a White American. This ethnicity stuff does not mean much in the real world here as I am a mix of anyway. I think they all fit pretty well.

[Sikeliot]

And for general White Americans, number 1?

1.

[Sebastianus Rex]

Neither for Portugal, both look foreigner right away, only the last picture can reasonably pass.

1st set too Northern European too many very blond heads on the 2nd pic some students could pass.

2nd set the 1st pic 90% of the facial features are competely off and look middle-eastern right away, On the last pic most could pass.

[Joso]

Everyone

[Zroota]

Set 2 of course.

[Prinses]

Set 2 in Turkey

Poll: Which of these two sets of photos could pass better among your ethnicity/nationality?


For the 1st set I see too many Borreby-ish Atlanto-Keltid/Nordid types for them not to confuse "Shema Yisrael" for a soccer player from Ethiopia, except for the dark-haired woman* who could low-key pass for Sephardi Jewish.
For the 2nd set it's closer but the features are still off. I see Alpinid, Dinarid, and Taurid types that are not typical for any "Jewish" look except for the woman in the crimson dress** who has the right Armenid phenotype to pass for an atypical Mizrahi Jew.

Overall that's gonna be a no from me on both counts, dawg.

[Kivan]

As a group, neither. But the 2# looks closer if compared to the first set, of course.

[Valwar]

Set 1. Pretty sure they even are my ethnicity. They look Swedish.

[Tooting Carmen]

Anyone else?

[CommonSense]

Set 2

[rein]

Set 2

Doubtful. Set 2 seems to consist of Arab people.

Some of them look South Euro, while the first set is basically all Nordids and North Euro types. I've seen Sikeliot post Sicilians and Calabrians way more exotic than any of these Lebanese, a few even looked straight up Gypsy.

In that case you could have picked both for Serbians.

[CommonSense]

Not at all. Hardly anyone from the first set can pass here. As Valwar said, they're probably Scandinavians and as such completely alien for any country in Southern Europe.

[Rouxinol]

2nd set, pigmentation-wise. The 1st set, most people would stick out like a sore thumb.

[Marinus]

For my ethnicity both in equal measure, as for nationality; Set 1 for UK, set 2 for Spain or Brazil.

I thought your ethnicity was Spanish?

[Marinus]

I thought your ethnicity was Spanish?

I'm equal parts Celto-Germanic (English + (a bit of French) and Iberian (Spanish + (a bit of Portuguese), in day to day life I'm just an Englishman, but I classify myself as "Hispano-English", or White British in the census.

[Seya]

second

[Hrvoje Vukčić Hrvatinić]

for croatia second, first for slovenia. voted both due to that. second set is way less exotic than you guys make them to be

[Cernunnos]

For Portugal, a mixture of both first and second sets.

[Tommie]

Neither.

[Hrvoje Vukčić Hrvatinić]
