I'm talking about guys like Colin Farrell, Sean Connery, Daniel Day-Lewis, Richard Armitage
Gandy?
Gandy when he is tanned and hair dyed black too
Less so tbh
I have wavy hair like a med but dont tan as easy as them. Id say people fro anglo saxon heritage dont have any resemmblence to them but you have people like me with allot of irish ancestry and that gives you wavy hair. even my grandma had beautifuk hair untill she died at 95
Not a single one of them looks med
They look super american
Yeah? At the very most some italian anglo mix that a lot of americans have but forsure doesnt look fully MED you gotta be insane
@psychomandible
>her mother is of Irish Catholic descentTrue. You can find Med looking people north of the Alps, and that includes the British Isles. What many people fail to understand is that "race" is not like a RPG game where every class looks totally different from another, nope, it's a continuum, and overlaps do occur, so you can have pseudo levantines types in Iberia (Iberians are not particularly genetically close to them, unlike Southern Italians); pseudo mestizo types (Balkans and Southern Europe, for example); and, your example, pseudo Med types in Britain and Northern Europe as a whole.
Catherine Zeta Jones is a great example, some racist NW Euro will cope and say "she doesn't look Med, her colouring might be darker, but she's actually paleo-atlantid" (and while these terms are pseudo science, I get what they mean, they classify based on geographic origin, not phenotype per se, which means they are biassed).
But in the real world, Catherine Zeta Jones would blend in easily in Southern Europe and Latin America (since most white Latinos are of Iberian and Italian ancestry).
Look at her with Antonio Banderas on "Zorro", he's Spanish, while she's a NW Euro woman, but they look like they belong to the same ethnicity, both of them could be criollos (85%+ Spanish) latinos, she fits better as Mariz Gonzรกlez than Mary Smith, in real life most people would place her among Meds than among NW Euros.
Catherine is a good example of how knowing your ancestry or genetic tests are way more reliable than outdated taxonomy, she is probably genetically closer to a Norwegian than an Iberian or Italian, even if she fits better among the later two examples.
Yeah, dude, but most British Islanders, regardless of the country they are from, are still basic NW Euro looking, darker types are a minority, whether in England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland, she fits better in a crowd of Iberians and Italians than in a crowd of Irish.
The British are in fact, mixed people. Genetic studies show evidence of mixing, and Britain has seen waves of migration from the Mediterranean since Roman times (43 ADโ410 AD). Thereโs also the "Black Irish" in the UK, who look like meds.Modern Brits are a blend of three main groups: Anglo-Saxons, Celts, and Mediterranean influences.
They have something about their face that makes them distinctive from meds
Turkish bvlls
Dominic Cooper as well
Meds are cool tbh
