Question

Hey,

Im very weird looking, i have dark, dark, dark, dark brown hair , not quite black but getting there. I have wishy washy green eyes if that adjective helps.
My skin is very pale and fair. It kinda of like having redhead skin but w/o redhair. I freckle like crazy in the summer and i have a boo radley face in the winter. Im kinda wondering why i look like this and wondering if someone could oull out my attributes and peg them to a country. I think im pale because of ireland and i dont even know if spanish people are white or have dark/fair they tend to be.
I want to know what to tell pplz weh n they ask where im from but i dont know what to tell them.
Please help.

just to make things clear,
boo radley is a pasty faced hermit from harper lee's to kill a mckingbird. Tom Robinson was black.

Answer 1

You must be beautiful or handsome.

In my book, wierd or ugly can be beautiful. You probably have heard that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

It is not uncommon for some people to think, despite much to the contrary, that they are not attractive. Recently some psychologists and other experts have defined a mental illness in which a person has such a complex of low self esteem and self image that he or she believes she can never be loved.

Nowadays you can get your DNA tested and find out to a very precise degree what parts of the world you are from. I think you may find this interesting. I hope you don't have the above mentioned illness, but maybe you are just experiencing the self-doubt that many young people feel at some point in their lives.

Answer 2

I don't think that sounds weird. It sounds, rather, that you have awful self-esteem.

What exactly is a Boo Radley face? Wasn't Boo Radley a black man? How do you freckle in the summer and turn into a black man in the winter?

I'm mostly German. The rest is Irish/English/French/Dutch/Polish/Portugese. But I look like your average Irish girl - fair skin, blue-green eyes, tons of freckles, and red hair.

Oh yeah, and the "black Irish" have very dark hair like that. Sounds like that's what you must be.

PS, when someone asks you where you're from, you say your hometown. Because from the sounds of it, you're not from Europe. If they ask what your nationality or heritage is, however, you tell them English/Irish/German/Spanish. America is called a melting pot for a reason.

Answer 3

Weird is in the eye of the beholder. You don't sound weird to me. Most Americans, are some kind of "European mutts" as you put it. The term "white" is just that. It's nothing wrong or bad or weird. It's just normal. Why do you think you have to fit some category or mold? You don't have to categorize yourself or answer to people for anything. Don't worry so much. Just be who you are and enjoy life.
Best wishes.

BTW I'm some kind of "mutt" too, and I wouldn't have it any other way. MIxed animals and people tend to be the cutest anyway.

Answer 4

I have friend whose parents were English and Indian.
People constantly ask her where she is from. She thinks it is rude, and she just tells them all "Cincinnati, Ohio."
It's funny every time, because they look completely baffled.

Are you mostly Irish? Because there are dark-haired Irish people, as well.

I'm a red-headed Irish mix, and my skin is pale all the time. But my sister is like you--pale in the winter, dark in the summer.

Answer 5

I don't know if you're American or not, but I am and I have the same coloring as you do. A lot of people do. Most Americans have lots of different countries they can trace their ancestries to. It's like that in many other places as well.. That's what makes us unique! I think it's cool.....it shouldn't bother you :-) If someone asks where you're from, just tell them.

Answer 6

It doesn't sound like you are weird looking. You sound like a American. I know, I have a European and American Indian look. I know how you feel,like you must stand out in a crowd. Just except you are an indiviual with a rich history behind you. Be proud of your ancestory.Everyone on the planet is a mix of different peoples. Even if they say they are"purebreed" if there is such a thing!Find a look with your clothes and hair that you feel is a good look for you and be proud.

Answer 7

Just tell them your a mutt! I also have the dark hair but the light skin, green eyes too! Spanish people can be fair or dark. I don't think I would peg you down as anything. Just tell them you are one of the melted pots of America!

Answer 8

Well usually mutts are attractive whether they know it or not.
You are pale from being from ireland & germany ( but u can tan or do mystic tan to get rid of that , if u don't like it )
You get the dark hair from spain and maybe england. ( you can change this by dying your hair )
Your green eyes are from either ireland or england. I have green eyes too, and I love them! SO love urs!

spanish people usualy have dark skin but there are some out there with pale ... but not as pale as it can get. They are just fair skinned. When you mention being pale that comes from ireland and germany!


But u sound fine! Just tan to get rid of the paleness and dye ur hair if u dont like it. But dark hair looks good with green eyes!


we are not very different
Im irish, german, english, swiss, and scottish ... i just dont have spain in me. SO its whatever, ur not too different =P

Answer 9

When asked where you are from say "arf arf" 2 Generation Mutt and proud to be a DAWG.

Be happy with who you are and where you are from. Unique is good however, bad manner folks are just that... bad mannered.

Dont let the annoying manners of others make you feel weird. I like MUTT....as I am "animal friendly"

Answer 10

Is that why you don't show a picture on your avatar?
Seriously, you know what, as long as someone finds self confidence in themself for who they are, it doesn't matter what they look like.
You just have a genetic mix in this world of many varieties.
