I'm being uncultured because I can clearly tell she's obviously black?

No, cause the way this seemed to have started out was with the assumption that you can't look at someone and think that they might look like they have french in them, without having overheard them say OH-HOHO, OUI OUI, bonjour...

and at that point they begin looking french? -_-

I mean she's obviously black, but that wasn't even being explicitly denied. He said she looks half black, and half french. But light skinned to the point he wouldn't have thought she was black at first. I don't know what else she would be, but honestly, this is kind of a petty thing to argue about

She probably "passes" as White (like, "native" Anglo-Saxon white). In the late 19th and early 20th centuries passing as white could have saved her life.

I guess so, cause my uncle came out pretty black, from the same parents. Dreads and everything, darker skin than his own dad, whereas she just came out pale.

not to say he came out of the womb with dreads... thats uh... not what I meant

Now I'm picturing a baby coming out of the womb with dreads, a big grin, and one of those Jamaican metal drum thingies.

And honestly it's the funniest thing I've seen in days.

It's not racist to say people who look similar look similar, you moron.

Flaming.

Anyhow, blue and purple are similar however you can reliably differentiate them, you were implying they look the same within a reasonable margin of error, which is pretty racist.

She looks the type to not talk to me, so yes.

Yeah no shit. Falsely accusing someone of racism should also be a form of flaming as well given how emotionally charged the word has become. It's kind of amusing though that I'm apparently racist against my own ethnicity because I can't easily tell the difference between it and another very similar one. That should be more telling than anything else. People are more easily able to identify the faces of their own ethnicity than other ethnicities: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-race_effect

So if one ethnicity can't reliably identify itself vs another very close ethnicity you can be pretty damn sure they are legitimately extremely similar.

Purple and Violet are also similar, but many people have trouble differentiating between them. Similar is a subjective measurement that falls anywhere between vaguely alike and nearly identical.

I wasn't implying anything. I was outright saying two types of ethnic Germans and ethnic French look so similar that the overwhelming majority of people have no hope of reliably telling them apart based solely on physical appearance. Turns out when two countries share close proximity and have been intermixing for thousands of years they tend to look pretty close.

Sorry, but you're not going to shame me into agreeing with you that sky is actually green just because of your incredibly loose emotionally charged words. You can stamp your feet and scream racism all you want like a petulant social justice warrior, but that doesn't really change the truth of the situation at all. Take a group of random white French and white Germans off the streets, hide any identifying cultural trends (like different clothing styles) and don't let them speak and I bet your guesses would approach random guessing (50/50) as the number of guesses increased.

You guys can get the last word. Everything that's need to be said has been said. I'm not coming back to this topic and I'm pretty sure you're just going to cry and scream racism anyway.

So hop off the tip of Zeus's dick just cause you don't know what French characteristics are supposed to look like, when my mom looks exactly like her, except light skinned.

I saw a French guy wearing a beret and carrying a baguettes. Therefore all French guys wear berets and carry baguettes! If we're going to start using anecdotes I could pretty easily run off and go find a bunch of Frenchmen who look exactly like Hitler's ideal aryan. Come on, man, you're being ridiculous. Many white ethnicities mixed with many black ethnicities can and do come out looking like this girl.
