Question:

I'm from a 100% italian family. Soo...?

WHY AM I SO PALE? I'm pale, naturally blonde.... it's so weird.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I dated a blue eyed/blonde Italian girl. She too was 100% Italian, or, so she thought.

Your ancestry, like hers, likely traces back to Northern Italy where blonde/blue eyed Italians are not that unusual. The reason? Mighty close to the Swiss Alps. Watch out for those Swede's (LOL)!

No one is really 100% any nationality. My heritage is Italian on both sides as far back as the Roman Ceasar's but, before that? Who knows?
