Fulaman198:
No, you missed the point.

To you, you said there is a "Nigerian look" or a "West African" look. I told you that you are completely wrong as West Africa is the most diverse region in Africa (and possibly the world). In fact, West Africa has so many phenotypes that I don't know where to begin.

West Africa has:

Sudano-Sahelid (Fulani, some Tuaregs, some Hausa, some Beri-beri, some Tubu, etc.)
It also has many people who resemble nilotics or people from Southern Sudan (A lot of pure-blooded Hausa, Kanuri, Songhai, etc.) Look at the pics below

1st pic is of a REAL Hausa man (not mixed like many Hausa of Nigeria are today), but you can sort of see a resemblance to Nilotic people of Southern Sudan with his magnificent dark colour.

2nd pic are of Fulani people (husband and wife), as you can see the phenotype is different.

The reason why West Africa is amazing is due to this diversity. There is no one look. But we are all black.

a light skinned Hausa man is no less Hausa than a dark one. Its still the same culture.

A dark skinned Tuareg remains Tuareg, the skin colour does not remove his culture. it takes much more than that.

You are colour struck, that's why you assume colour is the determinant of features.

not so, that's a European or western concept, as is the term black.

I thought it was a 'photographer's tour'. Nice pics tho

sw photographers dont tour like this, not sure why.

such pictures and festivals should be easily accessible and available to the public. These kind of things are good for tourism.

and btw why do your "Yoruba friends" never explain to you people the actual impression of things but always prefer leaving you with wrong and false info which you then come online to spew and make yourself look s.tupid in the process? Could it be they are as clueless as you are? huh

You know nothing about Yoruba naming patterns and your post is very insultive, gosh.
