WHAT YOU SAY

[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]
Look, dravidians are caucasians. Their languages are related to hungarian/finnish languages. They were originally farmers who migrated from Iran thousands of years ago. Dravidians can be black skinned to white skinned like a persian. They can look like aborigines and they can look like white people. That is the diversity in South India. As a south indian let me tell you south indian men are not considered attractive. In fact, Non-Punjabis or non-North-Western Indians for the most part are not considered good looking. South Indians don't look very different from people in Delhi or bombay,etc. THe skin shade is a little bit lighter, but features are the same. There is a logical explanation for that. The more south you go the hotter the climate, hence the darker shades of skin.

But, I will tell you that you will find communities in south india so pure they have not intermarried in over a thousand years. There are people with very sharp facial features in the south. I myself am a tamil and I'm 6'2. I am dark but I look more pakistani. How did this happen? God knows, south india is a very diverse land.

South Indian women however are considered attractive. Some of our women are so good looking they make the flashier women in the north look bad.

South Indian women:

Aishwariya Rai
Jaya Prada
Sonali Bendre

try to find pics of these women if you are interested.


P.S. Indians primarily are of dravidian stock including the punjabis. the difference is that dravidian languages are only spoken in south india, so we are mistaken to be a different people from the northerners. nothing could be more false.

We can only theorize why the northern populations accepted Indo-Aryan languages over their original dravidian tongues.

So yes Indians for the most part are caucasoid people.

ha ha ha this is so extreme, my first cousin sister went to the south Indian state of Kerela to meet this guy, this guy was such a desparado for an American visa and citizenship, my cousin brought him here to New Orleans, I was so sure the relationship would'nt last but they have been together for four years non stop! my family are creoles and actually south Indians are the biggest talk in the community, everybody is just crazy for Indian men for marrige and children, north indian men dont show us much intrest though.
I have discussed the issue of Dravidian origins with African scholars, I am told that once many thousands of years ago Africans were in west Africa and they made their way across the mediteranean into iran where the mixed with the local peoples, soon after there was a movement into India where they encountered a people called Austroloids, after incorporating these peoples all the tribes setled in south India. Peace and love to all my Asian brothers and sisters

Oh wow! there seems to be a lot of talk about Indian guys, honestly it is very difficult to say anything definite about Indian people. India is the land of many different looking peoples, and the first time visitor will be dumbstruck at the sheer diversity,(been there and I still can't get over the people), east Asian looking Nagas, turban wearing Punjabis and south Indians, all Asian peoples, I believe that south Indian men are the most attractive looking Indians because they exhibit the sharpest facial features you will ever encounter (incredible definition)and hey you cannot beat dark brown skin tones (these guys are even black!!) I don't know anything about their history, these Dravidians, any clues anybody
