Maybe to you konfurians. But us Northern folk don't do political correctness.:drakelaugh:

There are ethnic Somalis who are lighter than Benadiris, there are ethnic Somalis with kinky hair like Madows.

Stop these phenotypic terms. Use the more correct terms Benadiri and Bantu.

Then what's the difference between a Benadiri and a Barawaani. You guys have too many insignificant groups to keep a track of. To us Reer Xamar, Barawaani and Cadcad are all interchangeable. Who cares about the minutiae? My point still stands, this chick looks Swahili, which isn't a bad thing btw.

All those non-Bantu non-Somali groups in the South fall under the term Benadiri.

Now you're being inaccurate. Benadir and Barawe are two different regions. That'd be like saying all Northerners are from Hargeisa. I guarantee there's more genetic variety between two people from Benadir and Barawa, than between someone from Hargeisa and someone from Zeila.

The Mogadishu Benadiris have the same genetics as those from Brava and Merca etc.. even the Bajuni are similar to them (excl more Bantu and more Indonesian).

They are all Benadiris, and for the Bajuni something in between Benadiri and Bantu.

There is no difference Benadiri accounts for all those groups you mentioned from the Benadir coast. Not modern day Benadir which is pretty much just Xamar. Reer Xamar (cadcads), Reer Barawe, Reer Merka etc = Benadiris.

OK, thanks. Are you Reer Benadir? I thought you were Hawiye.
 
Some Barawanis girls look like light skin Somali girls . I think those are the ones with more Cushitic (Tunni) admixture . Others look more Asiatic and Muwalad Zwahili . The city of Brava was first settled by Tunni , who were later joined by Arab migrants and Ashraaf.

Tell me more. Bajuni Islands were colonised by SE Asians and Bantus like Madagascar?:damedamn:

So 'Benadiri' is not a regional term but a ethno-cultural term, like 'Hispanic'?

Doesn't that mean, that term should extend all the way to Zanzibar?:hmm:

I have found one Bajun on 23andMe, and he looks similar to Kenyan Swahili, but has haplogroup B4a1a (mt) and a chunk of Southeast Asian.

Either the Malagasy had contact with them or vice versa.

Nice, but she's not Somali. She's Cadcad or something.

Somali females don't have the genes to be throwing punches.:chrisfreshhah:
Yeah. Arabs do have good genetics for MMA as well as Bantus. She looks to be a mix of Arab and bantu.
Kushites are very weak people. The only advantage they have is endurance
