Regardless of how silly some of these words I'm going to write might seem or sound, if it is somehow interesting to anyone to know, this is some hints and facts about what Color(!) exactly the Iranians (Persians are just one of several ethnics in Iran) have/look!
Here we go...
Although there's always exceptions, all in all, the more you go towards the West and/or North of Iran, the more people gets lighter in skin, increasing the colored eyed and light haired ones, and reverse!
Now, to get you some clue and just an accurate fast comparison, there are white people of both like Brad Pitt & Alfred Molina! and there are darker (some might say Brown or Light Black!) ones, you say like Ben Kingsley to... say, Barack Obama! (in fact you can find almost any color you want! not to mention, Yellow, Red, etc)
So, as you can see, to say whether fitting Jake or Gemma to their roles or being them darker or lighter is a bit out of place and debate.
I'm going to even continue on this silly/crazy/fun/informing game just a bit more as to tell you that if you asked me whether I've yet seen any Whoopi Goldberg or a Tilda Swinton like while living nearly forty years in Iran, I'd say the Anglo-Saxon lady, for sure!
In the meanwhile, there's another detailed fact which outstands clearly that the height of the Dark White, Tawny or Brown people's majority is higher than of those lighter ones!
I hope this honest information could be of help, also satisfying enough to both the believers of being Iranians White or Dark! LOL
In my opinion, all the Iranians and non-Iranians (in short, all the human beings) are the same and the color of your skin really means nothing, but, nothing! (as I dare to believe that most of you even if not all are agree with)
Oh, and before I forget... there was a post in this forum by an Iranian dude saying that we're superior as being Iranian and Persian so that the others (Arabs) are nothing or such!
Well, I'm still hoping that it was just a wrong heed by this mistaken, light brown eyes* of mine, but, if someone notices that beep-like allegation please just consider it as a childish or hurried statement out of blind prejudice or simply just being child that you might unfortunately see in any nation against the others or foreign people, but, what it is important is that they are by no means in majority or of importance in any country whatsoever!
BTW... have I told you that I am an Iranian?! (I'm very intentionally not introducing myself as Persian just for the sake of some very dear fellows of ours here who've been teaching us the most but most generously that the Persians actually were extinct by Mongols and doesn't exist anymore! don't you believe it? eh, my teacher said so! and he's a Persian, FYI!)
...there was another dudette (if I'm not wrong) who declared that the Persians aren't White actually, they are some pigheaded arrogant! LOL... oh, that's only the Men, though! the Women are kind and gorgeous! and therefore, White, perhaps?!! ROFL
Cheers y'all...
*You've heard of that particular color of eyes, ladies! but you have yet to see how its becoming with my blonde hairs, nicely! ;)
