People race is a social construct…it’s how you see it. Lol.
For example, to me she is “white” to others maybe not.
Because it’s a social construct.
I’m Romanian, and I think I am quite, but some might not say Romanians are white, it’s all your perception.

Great-looking girl–a Slavic beauty, like my mother. The Vampire Diaries is, from a man’s perspective, a ghastly show, which should only be watched by men with the volume off…

Wales.. if you are White and if you live somewhere, where it’s always Summer you would probably tan.. bitch people from south Europe are White (Italy, Portugal, Turkey, Spain…e.t.c) they tan.. and Whites are named after their skin colour and it’s logical.. but if they tan then they are not White any more.. and skin is not all what matters.. Whites have typical facial structures.. you stupid Americans have never left your country and you want to talk about Italy, Spain e.t.c come to these countries and when you see how White they are you’ll shut you fuck up! when ever a Spaniard lefts Spain and goes to England 2 months later he/she is the Whites person in the world..BYE bitches she is White you wish that she is not but she is..! DUH

Your stupid. there is no such thing as the olive race. Show some concern to your race and not ours, we are quite knowledgeable about our culture and we know what race we are. I’m south european and i’m white! You seem very interested in us, why not study on our race?

For the record, I agree that they and the rest of Southern Europeans are white.
I am just mocking those who think you have to be from Iceland to be white.
