No
don’t exagerrate man
You really have to have trained eye for this, but you can definitely tell he’s not a white Mexican. He clearly has Native influences, particularly in the mouth, eyes, and forehead. He might look white to the untrained eye.
Wait his nose too, it’s not European looking.
Castizo. The average American wouldn’t detect it though.
you must be very dumb, this man is Whittier than many spaniards, his nose is very long and bridged
If that’s so then his Native ancestry must a few generations ago (say, a great-great grandparent). He is still more European looking.
Man with his face can be seen on any street in Spain. Therefore it is the typical Spaniard.
He looks like he could be from Spain, but yet he has something exotic about him. He probably has only about 10-15% Native American. He also looks part Middle Eastern. There are Mexicans of Middle Eastern descent.
