Temat: Different nationalities and their appearance:

Inspired by "What does the person above look like" thread:

Looking at Jarek's picture, he looks typically Slavic.

Excluding people of Asian and African origin, to what extent is it possible to determine people's country of origin by their appearance?

Can you spot Brits, Poles, Germans, Scandinavians, French and so on, with any resonable degree of accuracy?

Do you have a typical appearance for your nationality?

Which nationality, in your opinion, has the most attractive appearance?

Is their any nationality you would like to look like?

Answer all or any of these questions .....

Temat: Different nationalities and their appearance:

It's impossible to tell the nationality of all people just from their outside appearance, but it is possible to spot some at least. You shouldn't exclude Oriental either. Do you think you could tell a Korean from Filipino? Or Japanese from Chinese?

NYC Subways are best to play the "spot a nationality" game.

Yes, I usually can... but cannot explain why.

When it comes to slavs, it's a strange familiarity. I can't quite put my finger on it either.

I am not able to guess nationalities accurately.
I can just try, and get close about 60% of the cases.

When I was in Tunisia the native people there could guess your nationality almost 100%, what's more they started chatting in the language they predicted you were and always knew some words or phrases characteristic for a given language.

If they work in the tourism industry/field, it becomes their profession to guess the nationalities.

My friend said that Polish men had flat heads in the back. :)

There's some truth in that.

Is it due to having been smacked upside head too much as kids?

Probably not more than the world average. The thing is you can actually see those flat backs on a daily basis, thanks to the worst-haircut-ever that Polish men love and cherish.

Good point with the haircuts -- either the whole head 3mm, or not groomed for 3 months.

I can't tell the difference between Polish and Czech or Slovak, but it's quite easy to tell a German from a Pole for example.
Can you spot Brits, Poles, Germans, Scandinavians, French and so on, with any resonable degree of accuracy?
I can spot,
1. Germans and Dutch - although I often get confused between the two
2. Poles - oh yes
3. Italians - I'd say without bigger probs
4. Romanian

My accuracy is particfularly high if the 'object is in motion' - people's movements reflect their 'attitude' and characters: French - cocky, Italian - non-chalant (whatever the spelling), American - cocky again but different than the French, etc... Of course it's mostly an individual thing, but helps me narrow the selection down significantly.
Do you have a typical appearance for your nationality?
Apparently I do.
Which nationality, in your opinion, has the most attractive appearance?
Jamaican ! ya man! or Carribbean in general
Is their any nationality you would like to look like?

Come live in Italy: 30°C with 90% humidity 6 months a year and you'll change your mind about the haircut.Jarek A. edytował(a) ten post dnia 22.07.08 o godzinie 15:40

Geez, you took it so personal, Jarek?... :)

As for Poland, I think we have hardly 5 days of 30 degrees in a year, you know? ;)

Not really. I realize it may have sounded like I did.
