I remember way back in high school there was a guy in my special-ed class who refused to believe that I was white and insisted that I was Mexican, even though I'm white and not Hispanic. O_O

I'm 3/4 Scandinavian (mix of Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Finnish) and 1/4 French. However, my mom has told me that I have a tiny amount of Native American ancestry from my biological father's side, and she said that's why I have high cheekbones.

But I'm curious as to what OT thinks I look like. Do I really look like the average Mexican? :/ I don't think so.

I was going to say a Germanic/Scandinavian background, which turned out to be true lol. I too have a European background and Native ancestry in me, yet most people just think I am Jewish and nothing else. Only partly. Lol.

@gamerguru100: the "average mexican" is moreno for starters ( moreno = brownish skin and dark brown/black hair ) , the average mexican is a mixture of native american and spanish, morenos represent around 80% of the population. You are white, from where it doesn't matter but ceratinly not " mexican ", in Mexico people would call you " güero "; güeros are white people starting from white skin with brown or black hair all the way up to blonde hair.

Surely if you're 3/4 Nordic you would have either blonde hair or blue eyes or both and have the Nordic facial structure.

I would say you're more German/English since you have the Saxon skull shape.

So as for ethnicity, I would say white Germanic European.

If you consider yourself white who cares what other people think you are? Also, you seem plenty white to me, if that makes you feel better.

A lot of south Americans look white to me. There's been so much interracial breeding since the Spaniards landed there, that you can't even tell anymore.

@alim298: A lot of European descended Americans are interested in where their roots are from. We don't all have the luxury of being 100% this or that like many Europeans do. Most whites here have a variety of European backgrounds (also known as mutts), which sparks curiosity.

@Englandfc1966: Remember, I said I'm also a quarter French and have a tiny amount of Native American ancestry. My mom thinks my high cheekbones are from the Native ancestry. Also, olive skin tones are common in the Mediterranean regions of Europe, like southern France. It may be possible that my French ancestors are from that region, which may explain my skin tone and dark eyes/hair.

Also not all Scandinavians are blond haired and blue eyed. You also have to take into account that brown eyes and hair are dominant genetically over blue eyes and blond hair.

". We don't all have the luxury of being 100% this or that like many Europeans do."

Well, most Europeans don't have that "luxury" either. The origins and migrations of Europeans (or Asians, or Africans, or Americans, etc...) isn't stagnant. You may have French ancestors, but not all your ancestors are French. They're "mutts" too.

True, Europeans are descended from the intermingling from ancient ethnic groups before they merged into the contemporary groups today, but most Europeans can probably just identify with their single ethnicity/nationality.

LOL

Honestly only a DNA test would give me the most accurate results. My mom told me my ancestry just based on her side of the family and just told me that my biological father is a "mix of things", Scandinavian among that. So it is possible that I have German or English ethnicity like a lot of others have said how I looked.

Perhaps you should stop caring what people think of you, and focus on your good qualities. I'm from Australia.

No, that's just false, blonde hair and blue eyes are the most dominant eye and hair colour in every northern european nation except the UK (in the UK it's 49-51 in favour of brown eyes, not sure on hair) and I was mainly referring to the facial structure, nordic, slavic, saxon, mediterranean and celtic people all have distinct facial features and facial structures, just like how black, asian people ect have different features.
