Do Kurds substantially differ from Turks?

[TheStonerOne]

No.

Do Balkan Turks and Western Anatolian Turks differ (substantially) from Eastern Anatolian Turks or Kurds? Also no.

Although I like both Kurds and Turks (Kurds more), I have to put my bias to the side. The data>my feelings.

NOTE: Iraqi Kurds also don't differ substantiatively from Iraqi Turkmen.

 

[MongolTurk]

I don’t understand the point

 

[Primalsplit]

Kurds are brown Turks?

Or

Turks are white Kurds?

The answer is :

They are both arabs.

 

[unstable]

man made distinctions, the world is divided into superior indians and non indians.

Dude stop I’m in Istanbul right now and it’s easy to tell the difference

Kurds look Iranic while Turks look more Anatolian and more mixed in general

Turks can look like Kurds but Kurds have a Iranic look

Or

Turks are white Kurds?

The answer is :

They are both arabs.

Both are intermediate skinmed on average.

Bobby, I love ya mate, but this is just your confirmation bias. There's not really a notable difference between Turks and Kurds in Turkey.

Also intermarriage would complicate things further.

No.

They're both subhuman ethnics, that's all I need to know

Turks often look central Asian shifted while Kurds look Iranic or Arab. Also I can’t see Persians passing in Istanbul either

Turks have a wider range of phenos than Kurds but both overlap

Kurds Bonemog slavshits to death

Kurds Bonemog slavshits to death

They mog western Turks imo but OP is right there is a lot of overlap and Turkey is a very mixed country

Here in Istanbul I see people that look Filipino, Iranian, Greek, all phenos

Greeks looks very similar to Iranians tbh they’ve just got a little less eyebrow density and curlier hair.

But I agree

Idk about coloring tbh, light eyed kurds (25% of them) violently colormog dutchshits to hell and back due to better darker eyebrows, hair and longer and darker eyelashes

Height maybe but dutchshits have horrible facial features, theyre not even top 5 in Europe.

Anglos, French, Germanics and basque/northern Italian people phenomog

It's impossible for ethnic ethnicities to colormog because they have brown or olive skin. Fitzpatrick 1 pale skin with dark brown hair / eyebrows and A10 light blue eyes has been established as maximizing contrast and harmony

This should be common forum knowledge by now.

That coloring combined with Northwestern European skull shape is what's considered widely ideal, thus only they count as "White"

Well again, these are just your anecdotes. West Asians (outside of Arabia) overlap in terms of genetics and physical features.

There's no such thing as a "Northwest European" skull shape. There are features that are widespread amongst Western Eurasians as a WHOLE. Also pale skin is not absent in West Asia; it CAME FROM THERE.
