JEWISH IS NOT AN ETHNICITY, IS THIS SITE RETARDED!!! THERE ARE ONLY 3 ENTHICITIES CAUCASIAN, NEGROID AND ASIAN. AND AMANDA HAS ALL EUROPEAN NATIONALITIES THEREFORE SHE IS CAUCASIAN. JESUS!

You are confusing race and ethnicity. The United Nations recognises over 5,000 ethnic groups. In relation to race, most people accept that there are four main racial types – Negroid, Caucasoid, Mongoloid and Australoid. Some people also add Capoid to that list. Jewish people are Caucasoid due to the fact that Semitic is a sub-group of Caucasoid.

Then this site is filled with nothing but trolls.

They think only Northern Europeans are white.

I will also be sure to go up to the Jewish and/or Italian chicks in my class and tell them that they’re not white because I read it on the Internet. :]

“”They think only Northern Europeans are white”"

Believe me! that’s a rubbish! i’m from Europe i know.For example many people in West think that all girls in Eastern Europe or Scandinavia tall and sexy blondies like Victoria Silvstedt or A.Sklenarikova….)))))) i don’t know where this desinformation comin’ from! But,seriously there is a lot of darkhaired,southern lookin’ people,moreover i think in Northern Italy or Central France nordic lookin’ people more frequent than in Northern Germany or Poland

Janice Dickinson is Eastern European. She is very dark. She looks mixed when younger, but her sister, Debbie, was blonde, and her sister, Alexis, was a dark redhead with grey eyes.

Amanda Bynes is not white. She is part Jewish.

So I do not know why she referred to herself as “vanilla” in that tweet about Kid Cudi.

Of course she is not white. She is part Jewish, Irish, Russian, and Romanian; all of which are not Anglo. Therefore, she is not white.

From this site. All this talk about how Jews and Italians and the Portuguese etc. are not white.

I think it’s weird because in real life, these people consider themselves white.

She doesn’t but who cares if she did?

She looks Slavic. It was amusing seeing her pretending to be a Russian on her show, then finding out that she is of Russian descent.
