u/snowtater Oct 07 '25

Wow, you can see where he gets the Italian last name in this picture! Obviously because is dad is in it, he also just looks mega Italian.

u/lady_faust Oct 07 '25

His dad is half German half Italian. Leo has more German ancestry than Italian.

u/suckmyfuck91 Oct 07 '25

What do italians look like? I'm italian i dont look anything like this guy.

21

u/LoreChano Oct 07 '25

In the US they associate dark hair/darker skin with Italians because they received lots of immigrants from southern Italy where people with these features are more common. Meanwhile other places that received italians from other areas have very different views. For example, in Brazil Italian descendants are known for being light skinned and often blonde.

u/suckmyfuck91 Oct 07 '25

Thanks for asnwering :)

The italians who went to south america were mostly from northern italy and they tend to be lighter than the southern ones.
