Not sure if Negritos are the same as Papuans/Melanesians and they're different from Australoids (Australian aborigines) proper, although somewhat more related to them.
So you mean we should single out the ones who look mongoloid and the ones who do not in the Philippines. So we should not really be considered mongoloid because some of us have a different look.
Not that different. Average face for Filipino doesn't look much different to China, Japan.etc.
the Filipino face on their looks almost exactly like the Vietnamese & Cambodian faces, only a different color, and a more narrow face. To me they look different from the Chinese & Japanese faces
You mean negritos? Aren't there only like 20,000 of them left in a country of 90 million?
Those are just the people who consider themselves Negrito. There are many people who are technically not Negrito but look more Negrito than some Negritos. And there are also many Negritos who look like regular Filipinos. That 20,000 number isn't every Filipino who looks Australoid. I knew about 5 or 6 Filipinos growing up here in the US who looked Negrito, but they weren't.
Actually, I think they got the 20,000 number from people who speak Negrito dialects/languages. That's how they get most of the numbers for ethnic groups in the Philippines
So you mean we should single out the ones who look mongoloid and the ones who do not in the Philippines. So we should not really be considered mongoloid because some of us have a different look.
Just because a small part of the country is different race doesnt devoid the majority
