Not all Germans were Celts just as not all Italians were Romanized. And again, did you see the map I posted and have evidence to contradict it? Just like there isn't any reason for all Europeans to have the same bone structure and hair color there isn't a reason for them to be as hairy as each other.

Why do you keep insisting that Brits are super hairy? No one insisted that they are hairless. But on a larger European scale, they are NOT the most hirsute. Do you have a personal point to prove here?
I don't believe I did? You must be mistaking me for somebody else no?

You asked if you would count as a Britt. As you know, we have a very competent conglomerate of anthropologists and genealogists. And as the saying goes 'A picture is worth a thousand words'.

Well, I would say that I look "British" and could be easily identifiable as someone from the UK. Afterall, my ancestry probably goes back far within the British Isles/UK.

And i'm sure there are plenty more who would fit that description.

All right, I'll try my best.

The first one is lakupiippu, I don't fancy licorice myself but I'm a big fan of him. Maybe you can introduce us.

This one is too easy, Å oigu, supposedly a Russian, but has this Central-Asian flair to him. I'll remember him forever by this pic:
