I'm sure you have DNA tests to prove that, right?

What is Islamic heritage?

Also, if an Andalucian is 8th generation Spanish, they are not considered European?

It was a bad post to begin with. All of these posts asking about women are innapropriate for city data IMO.

They should go to those dating websites.

are you kidding me?

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

If you want to get a good idea of what the people of a European country look like, take a look at their football teams.

It's not perfect, of course, because some people (probably a disproportionate amount) who are of immigrant origin will play on the teams, but it's a large selection of men mostly of that nationality.

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.

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.
