The most white passing ethnic groups. White people outside of Europe

[decadouche57]

Syrians and Palestinians are way whiter than Lebanese and Iranians, Armenians are brown and lightest group is Turks

@decadouche57

Why do you think I look slavic? I look Anatolian turk idk if I can rly pass anywhere else

 

[nsk4ll]

No. Mizrahi Jews look semantic imo. The ones that pass as whites are outliers for their race

i didnt mention mizrahi jews?
i was talking about north caucasus
like chechnya, dagestan, lezgins, circassians etc

 

[dushmeryo]

I think Kurds are a bit darker and more robust than Persians right?

Zyzz is Armenian btw

This girl is Kurdish I think its a common look she looks rly good


View attachment 4390487

zyzz isn't Armenian he's ethnically kurdish with immigrant parents from Armenia

 

[whiteegyptian]

Besides all of this who's whiter battle, none and I mean none of these groups pass as white, all are swarthy, black eyes, black hair, just cause they are not African doesn't mean they pass as white

 

[decadouche57]

zyzz isn't Armenian he's ethnically kurdish with immigrant parents from Armenia

But dont Kurds from diff places differ in their genetics. If his parents are from Armenia aren't they Armenians

 

[Jason Voorhees]

Syrians and Palestinians are way whiter than Lebanese and Iranians, Armenians are brown and lightest group is Turks

@decadouche57

Disagree about Armenians being brown.

 

[whiteegyptian]

Disagree about Armenians being brown.

They can literally pass as Ethiopian

 

[nsk4ll]

zyzz isn't Armenian he's ethnically kurdish with immigrant parents from Armenia

there are kurds in armenia, there are lots of kurds in yerevan and shit, he and his parents are just a dweller of armenia but ethnically kurd as u said

 

[romanstock]

Surprised you didn't include yourself. Wants to be white, Christian, Aryan name of Jason. Do you live in North India? You might be a remnant.

My bad. I was replying to another comment. circassians definitely yes. The term "Circassian beauty wasn't for nothing but I'm not sure of the percentages

 

[decadouche57]

Persians, Kurds, and Armenians are the most likely to pass in South Asia due to Steppe and zagros

 

[dushmeryo]

Do Armenians look more Indian or Kurdish?

neither

this is what the average Armenian looks like, I'd say its a more unique look.

i'd say Armenians look most similar to Turks, but even then there's a noticable difference

Water though Turks can't pass for indian I have seen a lot of white looking Turks (pretty sure I'm one myself) I remember seeing a blonde turk in a street interview this doesn't happen with other nations.

the kurds in Armenia are called yazidi and they live in more remote villages amongst themselves, definitely not in the capital city.

I think Armenians look like their own pheno same with kurds. Persians are again coin toss some can legit looks Indian but others generally look mena

 

[surgerymaxxingsoon]

This is how I'd say each group is. I excluded groups like afrikaners, Latin American white elites etc who are just European populations that got displaced recently. They don't count.

1. Ashkenazi Jews
View attachment 4390099

Central & Eastern Europe historically but they genetically a mix of Levantine + Southern European + minor Eastern European. Majority of them pass as whites. My boss is a ashkenazi and it is impossible to tell he is one. Legit looks like a British/Scottish oldcel. Blue eyes, pale af skin and aryan features. 90+% pass as whites


2.Lebanese/Syrian Christians (especially Maronites)

View attachment 4390103

Most of them have light eyes, light skin and almost fully white passing due to centuries of Crusader era admixture with isolation in mountain villages and proximity to the Mediterranean. In most countries outside of Europe they read as completely white because of them being christian and their phenotype. In countries like Australia and the U.S., they're almost always perceived as simply white. I would say 75% of them are white

3. Christian Palestinians & Christian Jordanians
View attachment 4390110


Similar phenotype distribution to Lebanese Christians. Many families are extremely light-skinned but with a little more diluted genetic admixture but still blend seamlessly into white populations abroad. Another ethnic group that is technically middle eastern but still reads as white to majority of people outside of Europe. 70% pass as white

4. Georgians ( especially western Georgians)

View attachment 4390112

One of the lightest-skinned groups in the Caucasus and the entire region in general. Lots of them have blond/red hair and blue/green eyes at rates comparable to parts of Northern Europe. Doesn't read as white unlike the groups I mentioned before but still considered white adjacent and can easily larp as white anywhere. Like 50-60% pass as whites


5. Turkish Cypriots/Balkan Turks and NW Turks
View attachment 4390113


Heavy Balkan, Greek, and Slavic admixture due to the centuries of Ottoman conquests. Many regions have a decent percentage are blond/blue eyed and indistinguishable from Greeks or South Slavs but Turks are coin flip imo They either have a textbook antalonian phenotype and look MENA or look southern European. I'd say like 40% of Turks look white if you isolate people from these regions


Honorable mentions

Levantine Arabs( 30% pass as white)

Crimean Tartars(15% pass as white)

Aryan Nafri tribes in North Africa( 10% pass as white)

Iranian minorities( 5-10% pass as white)

Castizos especially from Argentina (5-10% pass as white)

Afghan Pashtuns/Nuristhanis (5% pass as white)

We are all black

Do Armenians have Turkic mix? Idk if it shows in them, I have 20% but it doesn't show much in me

Kurds? Im saying compared to other MENA they pass best as south asian overall

Many Kurds look Pakistani and around 50% of Persians ive met can pass in Pakistan

i was talking about armenians being south asian-looking, while as you said most could pass as south asian there are some exceptions like the photo i provided, same for azeris and georgians and pretty much anyone in caucasus

 

[dushmeryo]

depends on the Armenian
they've lived side to side for a long time its inevitable that they've mixed

I don't see the south asian passing here. Armenians look just like other people from the region.

All look white and objectively better than ugly panfaced mongoloids

yea that guy is just trying to hate on Armenians acting like they look south asian. a pretty low % of Armenians look like they could be arab, let alone indian or pakistani.

Have u ever actually seen a georgian most font look white

Blonde red hair is rare af, maybe like 1% in georgia most look like arabs

I was in Istanbul. A good chunk can pass as Greek, some look Persian, some look Arab, and some look Asian it’s very diverse

Greeks are actually darker than Turks believe it or not.

 

[decadouche57]

No they’re not. Are you saying this bc they have Arab mixture?

 

[Saint Casanova]

No they’re not. Are you saying this bc they have Arab mixture?

At the end of the day, they’re very dark. For better or for worse.

 

[Insomnia]

very cool avi Jason!

Now I understand why you were calling @Node 100% Ashkenazi Jew

 

[Deleted member 16203]

@Corleone

Funnily enough, the most white passing ethnic I've ever met was a 100% aryan looking (pale-skinned, blonde-haired and full-bearded, blue-eyed) sikh indian exchange student.

I immediately thought of him when, years later, I saw this meme about indo-aryan history:
