The reason why MENA diaspora in the US and Europe have a higher SMV than Latinos and Asians is because most diaspora MENAs in North America and Europe are Levantines, North Africans, Iraqis, and Iranians whose appearance gives them a broad appeal in the dating market.

If Saudis and Yemenis lived in the West, their SMV would be even lower than Asians since many of them have very similar phenotypes to Indians.

East Asian men have a strong niche appeal in the dating market mainly due to high social status derived from extensive pop culture export especially from South Korea and Japan combined with gains in average height.

However MENAs lack niche appeal, which means than Peninsula Arabs would have a SMV just as a low or even lower than Asians due to being short on average and having phenotypic overlap with Indians whose SMV is currently the very lowest in the Anglosphere.

The reason why Levantines and Iraqis have the second highest SMV in the west is due to being a slightly darker version of Meds.

If I read it right then yeah it’s a pretty solid thread. Spawn point / location matters

Levantines often look whiter than meds tbh, tho only the white passing ones but I do agree

gulfies and north africans would have tanked arab smv

North Africans are taller than Peninsula Arabs and are more capable of having good phenotypes than them.

Peninsula arabs still have more smv than asian

Only if they resemble Levantines or Iraqis, the average peninsula Arab in the West will be seen as "just another shitskin" with nowhere near the same amount niche appeal that Asians or Blacks have.
