I just realised:

A high forehead brings balance to the rest of the face. Something just looks off about tiny foreheads. Obviously there’s a limit though, if your hair line looks like it’s vanishing into the wind that’s a little too much forehead

Bella hadid is very man made
Do not put her in the same list as our natural beauty, Iman quruxey.
 
Brave man, I agree, she looks too much like a man facially.

There are some good looking Bantu women, but she isn't one. Media forcing people to think she is beautiful. I can't believe K'naan dated her.
I think shes beautiful. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Only the Kalenjin and Turkana in Kenya actually have high Nilotic ancestry, rest of them don't.

The Maasai and Samburu got too much Cushitic and Bantu, I think those two ancestries combined even outweighs their Nilotic ancestry.

I honestly didn't think that the Maasai-Samburu had substantial Bantu ancestry; I knew the Maasai had Cushitic ancestry and I thought that was all they had.

I have painfully beautiful, very lofty (almost unattainable) dreams for my Nilo-Saharan people. I want South Sudan to be the epicentre and stronghold of all Nilo-Saharans, once South Sudan gets its act together.

We should extend citizenship to the Turkana and Kalenjin; I don't even know why Turkana county wasn't included in Sudan by the British in light of the fact that it's contiguous and ethnically intimated with the rest of South Sudan.

The tribes of Sudan's Blue Nile State are our people and really should have been part of South Sudan; the Gumuz have even more proto-Nilotic ancestry than the Dinka-Nuer.

The Darfurians-Chadians are more distant, however, they are still kin and we should work with them in the future; even the Toubou of southern Libya and the Nara-Kunama of Eritrea should be accorded familial privileges.

When properly and fully utilised, South Sudan's vast water resources could be used to create a Nilo-Saharan complex.

South Sudan receives 580,000 gigalitres of water per year in rainfall and the Sudd absorbs 50 000 gigalitres from the White Nile; to put that into perspective, Australia uses 13,337 Gigalitres of water a year.

I think the Maasai do, but the Samburu less, but they have lots of Cushitic and Omotic ancestry. They aren't full Nilotes.

I have noticed that Nilotic groups in Kenya and Tanzania tend to have much more Cushitic ancestry than Bantu groups in these countries, for example the Datooga (Nilote) have the most Cushitic of any non-Cushite pop in Tanzania. And in Kenya the Samburu have the most of any non-Cushite group in Kenya.

Lol, perhaps Cushites and Nilotes got along better.

You think too small, my man. I dream to conquer Sudan and reinstate Nobiin as the national language. 😢

It is an ancient relationship. Even Horn Cushites probably trace all of their proto-Nilotic ancestry to ancient Nilo-Saharans. We most certainly have a lot of evidence of linguistic and cultural exchanges going back as much as 8,000 years, if memory serves me right. Even A-M13 which is found across our region, even in the rare Somali and in high amounts in Beta Israels and Gedeos, is probably NS in origin. Northeast Africa's linguistic story is basically an ancient dance between Afro-Asiatic and Nilo-Saharan.
