How Somali do you look?

[Robin]

I look very Somali. Growing up somewhere with few Somalis, I would occasionally get people guessing my ethnicity correctly. I have big eyes, full lips, and a thin nose. But unfortunately my nose is a little hooked like an arab.

So what about y'all?

Depends on who you ask. Most Somali's can spot me from a mile away but people from all over the world have mistaken me for their own

 

[Tukraq]

It’s usually common among habeshas lol

[QueenSamaale]

well then guess i was a xabashi all along

 

[Tukraq]

well then guess i was a xabashi all along

nope, is a Chinese with a big forehead suddenly somali? its stereotypical for habeshas, but somalis don't have a set eye type

 

[QueenSamaale]

i was joking. you really think i would call myself xabashi

 

[Dr.Xayawaan]

As somali as dhegdheer.

 

[madaxweyne]

I look very stereotypical somali
Oval shape with an ilhan or haile selasssie pointed nose light skinned with timo jillac 3b type

Yep I can't passs for any other ethnicity apart from somali
