I've been many times in andalusia last time it was last year! Andalusian (al-andalus) people are a mix of european and islamic ethnics.
It's the same as showing 10 aboriginal women and then saying that's how australian women look like.
The fellow forumer skewed the appearence of spanish women...that's all.
Btw, spain has multiple ethnic societies... you have the basques,andalusian, euro-castillian/catalan all of them can be spotted by looks and/or traditions and language
I'm not saying that is bad thing...it's just the way it is

While there don't appear to be any natural blondes, the Spanish footballers look lighter than the Spanish actresses linked upthread. And this is despite being in an occupation where they spend a lot of time practicing and playing outdoors.
There are other Europeans (Spaniards and other) who are not 100% ethnic European. Well, in fact no one is 100% ethnic anything, whatever that anything might be.
Icelanders are probably the purest stock of people in the entire world. All 300,000 people can trace their ancestry to a preacher who lived 500 years ago.

exactly my point. that forumer put pictures up of andalusian(largely m.eastern origin) and other ethnic spaniards in an attempt to decieve us into thinking that was the spanish norm. I was just explaining that spain not only consisted of such ethinicity but also european.

You could have just said "no, I don't."
