I know Afghans some can look scandinivian, but it's very rare, the superfair look is rare, very rare.
      Yeah the super super white pashtuns are really rare haha, but most Pashtuns typically look like your average south Asian in my opinion.

      • It's hard to describe, i mean I look pakistani, but often I have passed as a middle easterner, especially places like Iraq, Gulf etc.... I had this Iraqi guy in my class and people thought he was my brother because we looked pretty similar.

            • Well, it depends where I am and whom I am talking to. Once, while crossing Pak-Afghan border, a malayshay wala insisted that I was Hazara, however, in Kabul most people think I am Peshawri (because of my ridiculous Dari accent). In Kanadahar, people think I am Quettay-wala and in Quetta, I am often taken as a Kandaharai. In Karachi, where I used to live, I am always Mardanai for Pashtuns and ShumaliEtihad wala for the non-Pashtuns. An American whom I once met in Kabul thought I was British.

              • Sometimes i get confused for a stereotypic ethnic german, blonde blue eyed etc, other times people think i am a homie from the projects, like i remind 'em of bro 2pac, may he RIP.
                But i think i am somewhere in the middle like my bro, the main man, Armando Pitbull Perez, the rapper from BonBon video - nice.

                  • Torkham wrora,

                    I must say, you really look like a typical German from the southern areas of Germany. haha

                    Sie sehen wirklich aus wie ein Franke oder Oberbayer.

                        A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

                        For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


                        The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

                            By blood, we are immersed in love of you.
                            The youth lose their heads for your sake.
                            I come to you and my heart finds rest.
                            Away from you, grief clings to my heart like a snake.
                            I forget the throne of Delhi
                            when I remember the mountain tops of my Afghan land.
                            If I must choose between the world and you,
                            I shall not hesitate to claim your barren deserts as my own.
