Full Version: admixture or ethnic regional diversity?
Is it possible to be 100% one ethnicity but look a lot like some other ethnicity, perhaps even half and in rare cases mostly but NOT have any of that ethnicity in your "blood"???? Lately I've been seeing lot of se Asians that look like they could have quite a lot of white admixture inc esp w/ really light skin. I've seen Koreans who look s/se Asian (India, Burma, Nepal, etc), and whites who look black.... I'm sure many of you can site another example or two as well... They deny admixture to THEIR KNOWLEGE...
Admixture. Many of these groups are not as homogeneous as they'd like to believe.

I doubt there's such a thing called 100% homogeneity when people have been traveling and settling about for the past thousand years.
