Of course difference does exist, however, it is massively overstated.I don't disagree but have to add that in the grand scheme of human phenotypes europeans are massively far apart from each other.
According to traditional anthropology, Europeans are made up of three major Phenotypes/Sub-groups: Nordic, Alpinid, and Mediterranid.
Southern Europeans -Iberians, Italians, Greeks, etc- were often classed as a mix of the Mediterranid & Alpinid phenotypes. Whilst Arabs were considered part of the Orientalid & Armenoid phenotypes, which whilst definitely Caucasian have different features, skin tones, etc from Alpinid-Mediterranid Southern Europeans.
That is because they are exclusively basing it from primarily American media: The White stock of this country traditionally has been majority North-West European: Anglo, Irish, Welsh, Dutch, German, etc.No one thinks of a swarthy spaniard or italian when they think of white people. I just kept on posting because it's triggering that kid up there.![]()

The sort of "Blonde hair blue eyed" type(Nordic) is what most media portrays as the ideal standard of attractiveness. Hence, why it is a common perception amongst some that only Nordic=white.
