You remind me a little bit of Liev Schreiber in that pic.

I agree with @anon40653964! Except I didn’t remember his name. I just thought, “you look like that actor!”

You look Asian lol

@san_pedro, You seem to have some kind of problem with being mistaken for a Latino and I can’t figure out why this is so. If you’re not Latino, why is your handle @san_pedro? What kind of problems exactly do you have with being mistaken for a Latino man? I’m half Mexican and I feel nothing but pride. Viva Mexico!

You can be persian, I’ve seen faces like you here in Iran, or you can be even Arab, all in all, middle eastern can be an option, many of Spanish people have their roots in middle east because of the reign of Muslims there for years,
I hope that I’m not offending you, just my view,
And about sun, I enjoy sun bath, and about friends who think cancer is sth from sun, no, these are just probabilities, science is not sth so easy to attain and don’t think that the current science is an absolute truth, be sure that some part of it changes every 50 years,

The foods we eat in the west are probably worse then being in the sun. Science is like santa, its only true if you believe in it.

I think a lot of the Arab influences in Spain are in the south in Córdoba. I took Spanish history in college but don’t remember much.

Do you not wanna look Spanish? Your names a dead give away that your Hispanic.

gene · January 19, 2019, 8:34am

Why is this even a topic.

Bokeh · January 19, 2019, 11:19pm

Actually at some point, arabs controlled like 80% of the iberian peninsula, and although some people say they never mixed with christians I don’t know if that’s actually true, also it’s said that some muslims converted to christianity and were allowed to stay. Cordoba is where they stayed the longest (780 years)

SkinnyMe · January 20, 2019, 1:19am

Really! I agree with you. Maybe because it’s so funny?

SkinnyMe · January 20, 2019, 1:21am

So, what are you trying to say, that @san_pedro is Muslim? Isn’t that kind of stretching it?

gene · January 20, 2019, 8:15am

I’d argue about its comedic value. Seems to me Pedro asks this question wherever he posts this photo. Looks to me like a photo in poor lighting which may or may not be associated with a dating site lol!

Bokeh · January 20, 2019, 1:07pm

Nah, I’m not saying that at all, just expanding on what Loke said, and sharing some info about Spain’s demographic history.

anon40653964 · January 21, 2019, 4:38pm

It’s true. Certain phrases in Spanish like the word “Ojala” which roughly translates to “hopefully” originates from saying “O Allah” according to a history teacher I once had. Makes sense as Morroco conquered most of the Iberian peninsula as stated above for over 700 years. Sure does sound like it in any case. Just a tidbit sorry if I crossed the religious talk boundary.

Loke · January 21, 2019, 5:01pm

Ojala sounds like inshah Allah “God willing”.

Learn something new everyday. Thanks Loke.
