skin,dark hair and dark eye. I used to also have a full beard well when I went to Texas to meet my girlfriends parents for the first time they basically were horrified they're daughter is dating a muslim or moslim as they said mind you I'm not muslim at all. To quote them you do know those people attacked us. They had to apologize and things are still a bit cold from me to them. While not as bad as those who are truly minorities would feel still shocked the hell out of me.
