“I really dont get how people here cant tell apart an ashkenaz or sephardi based on looks I mean its usually pretty obvious. Not saying anyone is better than the other we jut have different features.”
The reason you don’t get it is because you’ve clearly only been exposed to a certain subset of the Sphardi world that is very distinguishable and has dark skin, which, by the way, are probably technically Mizrachi/Bucharian and it’s a misnomer to call them Sphardi. So, both sources and corpses indicate that your darkness theory is false, but you cling to it. Your sole evidence is “the middle east is hot.” You realize there are other hot areas with white people, right?
And, really? Because it sure seems like you’re arguing one group is better than the other:
“Why is it also that reform and intermarriage come mostly from ashkenaz. Why is there an inclination to that? It’s embarrassing.”
“Are sephardim stronger in Yiddishkeit naturally? Even the “less frum” who are “traditional”.
We basically invented sheitels as well which even back in Europe many gedoilim we’re opposed to. Sephardim always wore a head covering and mostly till this day unless they copy ashkenaz traditions.”
