OK, I was not a member of this forum when you talking about it, or I missed this information.

Well, actually there is a difference between Portuguese and Spanish people. Not very big but distinguishable for a local; like Scottish and Welsh to put an example. People from Chile are also descendants from Spaniards but the majority have obvious indigenous genes too, as Brazilians. Although in the Chilean case they are quite smaller than Peruvians for example as many Europeans migrated there in the XX century. In Perú it didn't happen since the Conquistador era, just like Brazil.

Btw my dad doesn't look very Mediterranean and my mom is Dutch...
Welsh are generally darker than the Scots, I think.

Do you look more Mediterranean or more Germanic?

Exactly, same thing with the Spanish and the Portuguese people. Just a bit, it's not something bad, but it's distinguishable, for the different history and settled populations I guess...

I look "white", that's all I know. I don't fit in any categorization. Maybe Caucasian for the US. But that's all.

Maybe "central European" ? My dad looks like central European, my mom doesn't look nordic but also doesn't look Mediterranean so the same I guess.

Yes Junter, that was very noticeable when I visited Portugal! A big lot of people were light skinned/pale complexion with Blue/Grey eyes.

Totally unexpected.

My phenotype is North Pontid, with some Dinarid influence.

Most Welsh have brown hair and light features, there's also a lot of blondes. Some people do look Spanish, but they're in the minority.
