Are Italians white people?

Gemelli - It's an honest question.

Answer 1

Hell no, we're olive! Africa is right across the water from us, so you know there had to be some hot interracial action going on at some point? how else do you explain our giant penises?

Answer 2

It seems to be that a variety of sorts pledge their undying loyalty to the arian culture. Sometimes, one or two might be shocked, suprised, and maybe even upset by the truth revealed if a family tree were adeptly created tracing roots and ancestery back to the very beginning of time.In our dictionary of the english language the definition of white is: 1) An achromatic color of maximum lightness. 2) Devoid of hue or pigment. 3) the albumen of eggs 4) politically ultrasensitive 5) a blank and unprinted area 6) of and pertaining to Caucasions. No matter, white IS a 'non-color'. It's devoid of pigmentation. The clause "white people" I feel is an oxymoron, hence my observation -The purest German skin appears to be anything resembling white when next to a white Tee or white piece of paper.
So my friend your answer from me is yes, Italians can be dubbed thee part of the white peoples. These beautiful people usually have lighter more pale skin tone, and in contrast possess the dark hair color and dark eyes to off-set their pale skin perfectly. They may have olive type complexions, a skin type containing more melanine enabling a tan before a burn. Yo check it out, the French too, are often a slightly a darker shade of white. (Is that egg- shell, navajo, or antique white?)
What about those "black " peoples... Lol, the African Americans are not the black as we humans know and see the color that's associated with this word. They are a dark to light brownish color.
Next in line are the Eastern peoples...the Asians... Hello, we aren't yellow, regardless we are still commonly referred to as such. Having the lighter skin with olive undertones and dark hair and eyes we obviously share some of the same traits as that of the italians.
Furthermore...Next in line are the Native Americans... Indians the first peoples of this continent last time I checked aren't crimson nor are they fire engine red but, hey they are widely referred to as the "Red Man". Unless they are sunburned I don't see the red in them that was I assume, reason for the description of this wonderous and amazing race.
In truth though, only albinos can be defined by and labled as the white ones, these creatures great or small are negative in pigmentation thus without hue. No matter the ins and outs, the similarities or differences and/or the right or wrongs all people are people. They widely differ from one another so just when you think that you got it all figured out, there is something to throw a wrench into the the mix. So those Italians that "don't look like a white person" that there person is your wrench.

Answer 3

properly, Spanish (from Spain) is likewise white :) that's an historic ecu usa in touch in the middle of ecu means and politics for hundreds of years.

Answer 6

I consider Italians to be a mixture of things like some of us Americans. For instance, this Italian girl told me a while back that her dad is my complexion. I am a soft, brown color(I am a Black person) and that shocked the mess out of me!

I think 'BlackPanther' needs to stay with his Italian princesses because he is sooooo ignorant. Sleeping around like that because of dish soap hair. What-Everrr!

Answer 7

The are Caucasian, though some of them can get pretty dark-skinned. That's because people from the Mediterranean Sea region tend to be somewhat dark-skinned.

Answer 8

Italians are not white but just like Greek, Spanish, west Africans, Middle eastern , North Indians are classified as caucasians(not the american one though).
Italians with their black hair and much darker skin resemble more to Arabs, Iranians and middle eastern people.
Though they hate to be classified as non-whites and try to copy Anglo/celtic/Germans etc due to Supermacist theory of the fascists. Even they had supported Germans in WW2.
They are also called Wogs in Australia, the term coined by British to describe Indians as worthy oriental gentlemen after recognising India as a sovereign state.

Answer 9

"White" is a fraudulent term pertaining to race.

"White" is NOT a race.

The true races are:

Japhetites(Aryans)

Hamites(Kham)

Semites(Sem/Shem)


Aryans range in colour from white to near black.
eg. Swedish Nordic-Aryan. Indian Indo-Aryan.

Hamites are generally the darkest peoples of Africa and similar races(*******) and mongols and modern day Khazar/Ashkenazim/Yiddisher Jews.

Semites are Arabs, true Hewbrews, Palestinians, Sephardim Jews and some Iraqis.

Most Italians are either Aryan or Semitic or a mix of the two. Acclimatisation to different regions has effected skin tones.

Answer 10

i'm italian
you are stupid and ignorant


italy is a great country who has got thousands years of history and civilization (except your country)

italians are a mix of hundreds races, and populations who settled down in italy in the past
i think that the celts, the germans, the normans (from scandinavia), eastern europe populations who came to live in italy ,centuries ago, could be considered white people.

italy, was colonized by populations come from north africa (the Vandals), middle east (arabians), spanish, greeks, too, probably these people have got darker skin than the others.

WE ARE ALL ITALIANS
