Why are most Italians dark skinned ?

They aren't and, yes, you're a racist.

same thing goes for Italians as Sicilians

No, I am not. I was curious. I know northern Italy the people are fair skinned and have blue eyes.

My mom is swiss my dad is from Malta but his fam is originally from Sicily when I tan I look orange Im never really pale though. I have dark hair and eyes, some people have said I look middle eastern but I dont think so.

cause they got raped by muslims

they're half arab/north african/berber, etc.

no, I think you have a valid question and I don't think it's racist..

I am a dark skinned black haired brown eyed german, where does that put me?

I dunno, my husband's 100% Italian family is all fair and sunburns easily. (they are from Abruzzi region). I tan like a fiend, and have Irish-German background.

Because they are a conglomerate of many different Tribes!

Italy is since many, many Centuries a melting Pot.

But there are very white ones in the mountainous North.

i as white as an albino

North Italians are actually Austrian.

In Italian prayers, they used to say 'save of us from the wrath of the Norseman'. That was the Vikings who'd come through on ocassion and kill all the dudes then pleasure the women with their aryan blond blue schlongs. Hence the pale skin blond hair Blue eyed Italian.

The brown Italian is just a mullato from Africa.

Because the Mediterranean whites were bred into the dustbin of history by their slaves.

Same thing as America in 50 years.

Early Europeans were dark.

THE ONLY NATION ON EARTH EVER CONQUERED BY AFRICA !!

My dad was a Viking. No, you're not racist it's just that Sicilians really love sweets. Do YOU have an unusually-sweet sweet-tooth?...

Rent the movie True Romance and listen to Dennis Hoppers character tell Christopher Walkens character the reason for this dark skin. Although he was talking about Sicilians,the Italians had the same experience,historically speaking his explanation was on the money.

The further north you go the more jews you have. Whities.

TOMATO'S

It certainly is a valid question, why shouldn't it be. It's bizarre to see someone be called a racist just for asking such a question.

In the north, Italians would naturally be mostly fair skinned people, but they don't of course have only blue eyes.

The south is located very close to the north african coast. The southern part of Sicily is even more in the south than the northermost part of the African coast. All kinds of people have crossed the Mediterranean for thousands of years, so it would only be natural if there were all kinds of skin color in Italy.

I think Sicilian's are rooted with some African genetics.

Maybe that's where our GANGSTA streak comes from?

I'm Sicilian and a little bit of sun I'm darker than the natives when I go to Aruba every year.

And, incidentally, the whiter northern Italians have higher IQ, and are more economically productive, while Sicily in the darker south has the Italian mafia as it's main claim to fame.

It's impossible to speak about these things without getting into racist territory, because whether you like it or not, the truth is racist.

I shouldn't but I did...laugh out loud!

Italians WERE blonde hair with blue eyes. IIRC, Hannibal conquered much of southern Europe (iirc, Hannibal - a Carthaginian - northern African) and forced intermarriage amongst the Italians. The "dark skinned" Italians are mix of black (African) and white (Caucasian).

You would also find that Spanish, Portuguese, and French are actually blonde/blue. The only ones to escape the forced marraiges and rapes were the very wealthy whites. Take a look at picutres of the former presidents of Mexico...mostly white.

Now as to the source of much of this info...my seventh grade Latin teacher so...you may want to research more for yourself.

Yes, I'm Italian. We joke about Hannibal and how he really got around. Not only the olive skin, but some have very curly dark hair.

One would assume Italians would look a little more like Swiss from the north.

Sicilians are also famous for their ice cream.
There is no racism in that.

The Africans weren't "black" Africans, they were from what was known in historical times as Libya.
They have berber genes, not black.

many tan, I'm Italian but I'm pretty pale ><
