A girl told me I look like I'm from a Cold place. Why? ... confused!?

Question

I've got naturally straight black hair, dark eyes (basically black), and I'm fair skinned. Got fairly prominent cheekbones and jaw line.

I was talking to a girl that I'd just met and she asked me where I was from and I was like ... Australia ... and she was like oh, you look like your from a cold country cos of your dark features on fair skin.

And I was thinking ... is that a stereotype or what? Like, do I look like an Eskimo or something? Please help clear this up for me, thanks :)

Answer 1

No offense, but that girl is an idiot.  I've never heard of that as a stereotype, but being that you're from Australia, I would have thought that you come from a relatively hot or warm place.

You sound cute to me though!

Answer 2

I wouldn't worry about it, actually it's been quite a cold winter this year here in Australia and luck us in six day's will be spring.

Answer 3

People who come from cold places tend to have nice skin (tight pores, smooth even complexion), so take it as a compliment.
