Yo Abdul remember in Do The Right Thing when Spike Lee says to John Turturro "hey you know what they say about dark Italians".

Tony, as far as me looking Iberian, I think that I could pass for some type of Iberian physically, but as the same time, I'm sure I wouldn't look typical, and that my American facial expressions and mannerisms would prevent me from going unnoticed in Spain or Portugal.

Yigal your 1/16 non Caucasoid at best so stop acting like that makes you the equivalent of Pocahontas. listen my friend i am the son of South American/Caribean imigrants i live in "the barrio" i work in "the barrio" and i speak spanish at home, so excuse me if i feel more kinship to the average tomato picker and lawn worker than your average Doctor,Viking, or mafioso i am a hispanic, i have been all my life, have lived in a hispanic area, went to hispanic classes with hispanic kids, and live my life as a hispanic, whenever a form asks for race me and all my family put............Latino/hispanic i have no ties with europe, my family has been in the americas since late1600s , from an area that is genetically mixed, i am the son of a caribean father who has a black mixed mother, and of a south american mestiza mother, just because i dont look like George Lopez and Carlos mencia, however acourding to Droop (a spaniard/European,Not my kin) i look like that not Padilla, so i dont know exactly what your trying to say, Race really isnt as important to my daily life as i guess it is to some of you, but when u try to dictate to me what i should put! i find that offensive, im sorry im not hispanic enough for you fact is being white,black,red,Hispanic doesnt matter to me but lets be honest in America im not White, in Spain im a suddaca, i dont assosiate as anything really but if i was forced to choose race id choose hispanic or Mixed other

Thanks for putting words in our mouths, but your claim that no Iranian could pass for Swedish is idiotic. I'm lazy, but I'm sure in a country of millions I can find a girl who could tell Swedes she was Swedish and they'd believe her. That's all "passing" means, doofus. And now what are you saying? Scandinanians are "pansey albinos"? "hey seizure is dodona your favorite race related forum" "hey seizure would u say mexican chicks are attractive on a rating of 1 to 10 according to u" "hey sizure what do u thnk of the poll results so far" I'm sorry, but if you met Xerxes, you'd actually bother to ask him "hey xerxes what about it do you see yourself as Off White.You could be judging by your pic since you wouldn't fit anywhere in Northern Europe." Oh, snaps, Xerxes doesn't fit in Northern Europe? Is anyone but you supposed to care, honestly? Woud you tell him as well to go watch some movie about it? tony is teh lame ass pansey ass wop lolz. Learn how to type properly, learn proper grammar, and lay off the forums awhile. I don't care that you got rejected from Stormfront, or that you have some inane fear of time travel machines that magically transport you into an era long-gone. Let's just shut the crap up, shall we?

Forrester why did you post that pic its not like she resembles a Swede so whats your point in posting her pic because if thats your example of a Nordic looking Iranian than it sure as hell is a bad example.

My name isn't "Foreigner", the awkward way you phrased the first sentence makes it seem you agree with me, and Swedes don't have 'pig shaped noses' nor would it even be relevant if even some did.

"pig" shaped noses are a very common northern european feature anyway that iranian doesnt look swede at all you are insane man

Nordic's a specific subracial designation. My point had nothing to do with it. Why did I post her? I already explained. She could "pass". You have reasoning problems. Simply because a person doesn't match your arbitrarily chosen ideal examples which for some reason are nothing but depigmented Englismen and Australians, doesn't mean there's hazy overlap between Iran and Sweden.
By the way, you're missing half a dozen commas.

If thats what Forrester thinks most Swedes look like than he needs to lay off the mary jane.She's about as Swedish looking as Julianne Moore is Portuguese looking.

I don't think he thought that most Swedes look like her, but rather, that there are Swedes that look similar to her, which means that if she was in Sweden, dressed in western clothing, and knew how to flawlessly imitate Swedish mannerisms and expressions, she would go unnoticed, not because she looks like a typical (or stereotypical) Swede, but because she is within the general spectrum and range of phenotypes that appear among native Swedes. Passing doesn't mean necessarily mean looking the epitomy of a certain ethnicity, just that one has a phenotype within the range of phenotypes that can result from that ethnicity.
Not to mention that she could probably pass more easily than many would expect, considering that the whole "Swedish! Nordic! Halstatt! Long heads! Max von Sydow! Blonde hair! Blue Eyes! Dolph Lundgren! Square chins! Prominent nose! Viking! Oh my God!" thing is probably exaggerated. ;D
