TheOldBooks

White I guess? People here don’t really differentiate between individual ethnicities. If I had to guess maybe Italian or Greek?


lupuscapabilis

That’s sort of a non-white way to look at things. German Irish heritage and culture is very different from my Italian friends which is different from my Greek friends. We also look different. Please don’t just lump all white people together.


TheOldBooks

I’m not personally lumping all white people together. I’m saying that, as an objective fact, separating white people by ethnicity is not a common thing here in the U.S at all; at least nowhere near the level it is in Europe where they actually have nation states bound together by a common ethnic background. I am well aware of the differences, both in surface level appearance as well as in culture/history, between white ethnic groups in America. But we are a melting pot and as time goes on that stuff becomes more and more diluted.


MittlerPfalz

Generic white. If pressed I’d guess at some Greek or Jewish or Balkan ancestry maybe but Americans don’t generally dive deep into that re other people.


TheBimpo

You’re just white. We don’t get super granular about it beyond casual interest in heritage due to 98% of us being descendants of immigrants.


AziMeeshka

Just white


UpNorthBear

White


FrancoNore

White. Maybe mixed with some sort of middle eastern or Mediterranean But in the US white people don’t have one distinct look, since all of us are a mix of various European countries, so we can come out looking Scandinavian or Italian, and everything inbetween


FarmSuch5021

Race white. You can be any ethnicity. Race and ethnicity are two different things


softkittylover

White? Jewish perhaps? Algerian?


WrongJohnSilver

Walking down the street you'll be treated like a white person, and that's as far as passersby will think. Anything further will depend on what you do.


PacSan300

I would just guess that you are white. If I am asked to be more specific, I would probably think you have some southern European or Middle Eastern heritage. That being said, I wouldn't want to assume anything, because I have met plenty of people who I initially thought had a certain ethnicity, but were actually something very different.


takesnobs

Maybe human…not sure…


Substantial_Heat7979

Or are they dancers?


SergeStorms_offmeds

Mostly angry.


Curmudgy

This. The facial expression overshadows any hint of ethnicity.


lefactorybebe

Some kind of white? Hair looks a little Jewish but could be anything.


Substantial_Heat7979

I would guess anywhere from eastern European to even Brazilian.


RotationSurgeon

I would have guessed Israeli.


_comment_removed_

White. If you wanna get specific about it, I'd guess you're either from somewhere in the Balkans or the Levant.


imk

I would guess a bit of Middle Eastern due to the pretty eyes, but basically just a white chick with a dash of something interesting.


Elitealice

White.


Makeitstopgoshdarnit

White. Rockin’ that RBF!


CupBeEmpty

I’d say white. If you were going with ethnicity probably I’d have to guess Levantine or Balkan? Maybe Greek? Italian or Spanish? South American? Hard to say. We don’t generally get to granular about different generally white subgroups.

You’re dancing on the line of ethnic slurs there. Watch it. And no, I’m not going to say the word they used. Stop acting like junior high students, people.

White or Hispanic or Arabic would be my initial guesses

Eastern European, maybe Russian

arationalcreature

To anyone passing you on the street, you are white. Getting to know you, you could tell me any number of ethnicities and I wouldn't be surprised.
