Sometimes when looking at images posted on this forum of supposed "nordids" or other nordic types, I feel like even though they live up to all the criteria there's something "off" about them. And I don't really know what that is. I have a certain intuitive feeling of familiarity with how certain people look that to me is hard to clearly define. Have any of you experienced the same?

Below is a selection of old photos of a bunch of different Swedish men. Amongst these faces I would feel right at home, but I don't really know why that is. To me they all look different but still so familiar. They just look Swedish to me. Maybe someone more skilled than me at taxonomy could explain if and what the common trait among these faces are?
