I have a Polish nose but I was told a few times I look Spanish or Italian (brown hair, brown eyes, tan).

To be truthfull you have a Polish face with italian eyes, nice :)

Thanks. :) I have my mom's big brown eyes! Except mine turn greenish and always have a somewhat green tint to them. I always have wide eyes in pictures, but in real life my eyes are more almond shape than anything. :D I always get the most compliments on my eyes, hahah. It's nice though since I'm so darn self-conscious. My nose is big. >.>

Very true! I do have my dad's nose and he's mostly Polish. :) So many girls I know have these petite little noses. I'm always just like "mine's Polish and sexy." Lmao. :D

Since there appears to be quite a bit of Nationality-Guessing on this thread, can anyone guess mine? Obviously Polish, but what else? These pictures are a couple of years old from when I was in high school, but whatever:

First one

Uh, if anyone is wondering about the weird dinosaur thing in the corner, we were building our house and living in at the same time for quite a long time, and I got stuck in a small storage room while my room was being built. Anyway, here's another:

Me...

Lmao, nah. No one is too ugly for me. :p Plus I think he's quite attractive - he looks very slavic! Mmm, Russians.

I'm addicted to foreigners. :D

Forgive my familiarity with you, but you do indeed look very Spanish. FYI - you are almost a dead ringer for my missus (who's Spanish) in the top pic of you next to the river. Perhaps you have the ancestry? A Polish legionnaire in the Napoleonic Wars who took a Spanish donia back to Poland with him.....?

Nope. =P

I'm completely Polish-Russian on my dad's side, but I also have some Italian, Irish, and English in me on my mom's side. Those are all pretty small percentages though, since I think she's Polish too. I'm also 1/16th Mohawk Indian, though I don't really look it, lol. =P

In my family,

Grandma had black hair and brown eyes.
Grandpa had Blond hair and blue eyes.
Mum has mid-brown hair and blue-grey eyes.
Auntie Jadwiga has blue-grey eyes and brownish red hair.
Uncle Janusz is balding and grey (originally light-mid brown hair) and blue eyes.
Auntie Irena has dark brown hair and blue eyes.
Auntie Basia has mid-brown hair and blue-grey eyes.

Cousins:
Krzysztof has dark brown hair and blue-green eyes.
Łukasz has brown hair and blue eyes.
Wioleta - Brown hair and brown eyes.
Asia (ah-sha) has mousey (blond-brown) hair and brown eyes.
Martyna - mousey hair and light-brown eyes.


I think my family is from all-over, but most live up in the Zachodnio Pomorskie & Pomorskie. Most of the women in my family are short-to-average, and the men are tall.

I didn't include me in the above (or my sister + dad), as I am half-Hungarian and Half-Polish. So, look-wise..I had pale blonde hair that turned to light-brown as I got older, and have greenish eyes.

I also don't look very Polish (more Hungarian). When I went to visit my family the-year-before-last, people couldn't place me, or as my Aunt said, they could place me as being different (in Dziwnow).

Hi Shari:

I am also part Hungarian and Polish, and people often can't place me. I have posted my pics and background on the previous page, post 411. You say that you look Hungarian; what does that mean? Can you place my looks?

Hi,

You definitely have Slavic features. My mother has a similar nose and lips to yours. Your eyes and hair are also Slavic.You also seem (to me) to have Central Asian features. The broad/high cheekbones. So perhaps you need to look around the central asian and slavic borders (e.g. Russia or far east Ukraine). A bit of the mix (features) reminds of me of a Hungarian man I met with slightly asian features, maybe distanly Mongolian or central Asian.

Do you have a natural tan? I know that a lot of Hungarians (maybe even the neighbouring countries) have that healthy tanned look.

--

I have a Hungarian face-shape and features. I look a lot more like my Dad, Aunt and Grandma (Hungarian-side). They originate from Pecs.

Hi Shari:

Thanks so much for your response. I have posted on this topic a few times on this board, and no one has ever bothered to comment, and when they did, only to tell me that I don't look Polish (except for one other poster). It is not really important to me to look one way or another, and I am just as proud of my Hungarian heritage, but I know that there is more than one Polish look.

I have a theory that my maternal grandmother may have been from the Ukraine when it was part of Poland, and may be Polish-Russian, but I would think that they would know. I am adopted and have met my birth mother, and I would think that she would know this if it were true. But, maybe they didn't think it was important because the grandmother identified as Polish and it has been lost through the generations. I have seen a picture of her and she definitely looks like someone who would have a typical East Slavic look.

Yes, I have naturally olive or tanned skin, but two of the pictures that you saw were taken in Southeast Asia, so I was especially tanned. However, my cheeks are also very rosy, and can blush deeply, which I have heard is a slavic feature and a Mongolian/Asian feature, but I don't know.

I am Eastern European on the maternal side, but also part Arawak Indian/Suriname/Dutch on the paternal side. You could also be seeing that aspect, but I know that I am a mix of both.

So, what is a Hungarian-shaped face? I always thought that I had one. Do you have any pictures of yourself that you can post?

I'm so glad to meet another poster who is part Polish and Hungarian!

well - i got to say that the bulgarians are completely different than the east-europeans. they are mixture between slavic, thracian, roman, persian.

Serbs and Croats also.i don't see many similarities from them with poles or russians

No-one has a symmetrical face. The only part of the body that is symmetrical is the pupil of the eye that beholds all the asymmetrical people of this world.

Um, no one has a perfectly symmetrical face - some people look more symmetrical than others, namely supermodels, 'cause they're plastic or enhanced digitally for magazine covers. But there's small, minute differences everywhere. There really isn't anything that is perfectly symmetrical that is manmade in the physical world. Even a perfectly "straight" set of steal bars set "parallel" to each other and placed by machines will be off, even by the slightest degree, because of the smallest factors.

i think they mean that most peoples faces are more symetrical than our own faces

Prove it! Lets's see! :)

if she was a man (according to many Polish girls, women I've met)dropping the pants down, should definately show the proof of him being Polish, lol.


czaszinowski  May 30, 09, 10:39    #450
im no expert, but in my personal opinion Poles most commonly have sharp high cheek bones, inset eyes (deeper in their face than most europeans), defined noses, light brown hair (ranging from dark brown, to mouse brown to a near blonde), hazel or cobalt blue eyes and are commonly tall in stature. Poles skin colour is different to most slavs as it is more orangy yellow (not quite olive) and not as pale white as neighbouring slavs. Forgive me if you do not share the same opinion...
