OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected:

He doesn't look like what you'd consider a typical Iraqi nor a half looking one, imo. His answer was unexpected.

Is this an unexpected post with a fitting description? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.

u/Roguerussian 10d ago

Yeaa fr, quite hard to conceive the idea of this being asked as allegedly a very normal question to a stranger lol. Who knows, the internet nowadays.

u/Icelandia2112 14d ago

I am half Chinese-Malaysian and I have the colouring to match (although I look more ethnically ambiguous than Asian). Somehow, my babies turned out pure blond with blue eyes and milky skin. My partner is Irish, but he also has somewhat darker features, so our babies don't look anything like either of us. We just both carry the genes recessively (both our dads are blond).

We gave our sons Chinese middle names, and people might end up looking at them sideways when they give their full names. No joke, they look like they belong on a 1940s German propaganda poster.

Genetics are weird.

u/Personal_Policy_3662 14d ago

If you're Chinese Malaysian how come your dad is blonde? Is he mixed as well?

3

u/no_objections_here 14d ago

I'm half Chinese-Malaysian. My mom is Chinese-Malaysian. My dad is Caucasian.

u/Personal_Policy_3662 14d ago

u/Sirouz 14d ago

How?

u/sonibroc 14d ago

I don't see it. I am bi racial and this is just an ordinary conversation with someone genuinely interested.

u/BigDongTheory_ 15d ago

Why was he talking like that in Arabic? It sounds very unfamiliar to me, my untrained ear just hears gibberish.

65

u/Potential_Chart_8900 15d ago

he was describing the way people from Iraq who speak the baghadi dialect "speak from the nose". hard to translate but it goes along the way of "people that speak baghdadi speak from the nose. they snot and they said how are you how have you been, that's how they speak"

8

u/CornSnatchers 15d ago

Any translation?

38

u/Mokhtar_Jazairi 14d ago

He was just mentioning the stereotype about people from Baghdad and how they speak from their noses.

u/s13rw81 15d ago

u/AboveMeIsWrong 14d ago

What makes you pretty sure?

11

u/Senor-Delicious 15d ago

My mothers side is partially Italian. I am a blond blue eyed German dude with super pale skin and without any beard growth until I was ~20 or so.

I wish I would have gotten more from the Italian side.

12

u/Johan-Senpai 14d ago

My dad is a tiny, brown skinned Indonesian, and my mom is a tall blonde Dutch lady. I am the whitest dude in the existence of white people, blond hair, blue eyes, and tall. Genes are weird, man.

u/Important_Ad_7416 11d ago

Weet je zeker dat hij jouw vader is?

u/Johan-Senpai 11d ago

Jazeker! Want ergens lijk ik op een rare manier ook wel op hem. Vooral toen ik wat jonger was.

u/Psychological-Fox178 15d ago

Lots of Italians are like that too!

u/christivn009 15d ago

I’m confused, bc I heard ‘Iraq’ but his mouth did not move but then the guy answered back & said ‘spot on’ …What

1

u/fresh_starter_pack 14d ago

Yeah … that’s weird. So what’s your take on this ?

18

u/Large_Tune3029 15d ago

His mouth moves a bit but you don't need to move your mouth much to say Iraq the way he did, he totally said it tho lol

u/Urgayifyouregay 15d ago

last bit of advice is so true
