Nice pic, no matter what, with no make up, u look great! I hate you! ( Just kidding!).
I would say yes and no..with some makeup and your hair a bit straighter or pulled back, sure u could pass.
And don't worry about looking too dark.. I am as white as this page, but my soon to be,sister in law, has a girl, who is VERY dark, strangers on the street have asked her if it is her kid..

I am also part Turkish, but all I know if of an aunt of my father, who lived in Konya.. that is it.

I think I will post a pic or two of me soon, and have others tell me how turkish or unturkish I look. u gave me a good idea.

I will visit Turkey for my 1st time next spring.

Turkey is a lot like Italy.. there is a great variety of skin colors and hair colors. I like the diversity!

As appearance you look latin.

But we Turks are warm blooded people you know,even if you have 1% Turkish blood (or even not , like some friends here :) ) we consider you as one of us.

The important thing is how you feel.

You are very beautiful. you do look a bit Turkish but then you are a bit Turkish:)

I can not bite my tongue to the person Mrs Jones who says you look like a PKK Terrorist, this is racist and generalizing to say that all people who look Kurdish look like terrorist. How would you like it if someone said all blonde foreign women look like Russian prostitutes? Besides, this Mrs Jones is a hypocrite because she has a link for an anti-racism site on her page about herself but she is always criticizing Kurds and calling them all terrorist and backwards, her last comment like this was deleted. If we are lucky Yahoo will delete her ugly answer here too.

Hmm, the Puerto Rican seems to be dominant in your genes. I wouldn't complain, though. :)

IMHO, if you imitate the body language and mannerism, yes, you can pass as a Turk. As you probably know, we have nearly all kinds of colors and facial features here.

Let me put it this way: if you ran an ad in a newspaper, saying you were a lost child and are looking for your family, (and especially that you are rich :P) lots of women would emerge, saying you look like them and could be of their families. And you would be surprised at the similarities.

She isn't asking whether she can be Turkish or not, she's asking whether she can pass as a Turk and I would definitely say no.

As a mixed-blood person, you have the right to choose which "identity" predominates for you
You are Turkish/Greek/Puerto-Rican, that's a nice mix, indeed. And as a Puerto-Rican, you have some Spanish and Amerindian origin, and maybe even some African origin too.

You do look more Latin than Turkish, in fact.
If I saw you in the street, I wouldn't even suspect that you have some Turkish ascendance. But in fact, even us Turks are sometimes surprised by the looks of our fellow citizens, because there are actually many different types of Turks ( besides the classical brown hair/white skin type), and many people are very dark skin or have blue eyes/blonde hair, and also many Turks have Asian face features too. We have Gipsies in Turkey who have a very dark skin, and they are usually very attractive, we also have Slavic-alike people ,Latino-alike people, Arab-alike people,Kurdish people, even Black people (in Aydin,especially), in fact there are all kind of looks in Turkish nation. Most of us are not so easily identifiable when we are abroad...
You look like a Panamean, a Mexican a Salvadorian girl, but you could also pass as a Turkish girl with some specific hairdress,make-up and clothes. In fact, it also depends on the way you talk, you walk,you watch...The body attitude may sometimes gives away the origin even more than the mere physical appearance itself.

Why does it or should it matter unless you work for the CIA?

Great mix and you are a very beautiful girl.
In Turkey there are many types of people. Blond, brunette,red head, fair skin,olive skin etc etc etc
You can be Turkish. I think i wouldn't be surprised because there is not really a typical Turkish type.

i think if your hair was straighter and some makeup to lighten ur skin, you could pass for turkish.

I was just joking, you look like many of my cypriot friends. I love the way you people talk. I think you would pass as turkish but the curly hair would make people ask where you are from.

rainbowssss

why do you care about this? be happy with whatever you are. you look pretty.

pinkskies87

No.

KYRA

oh my god, you are absolutely beautiful, girl.

you could almost pass, but I don't see 100% Turkish in you. they usually have smoother hair. and they are a little more hairy. (upper lip, along the hair line ...)

oh man, I just checked your pic again. I'm melting ... (and I'm not gay!)
