Why does Kourtney and Kim Kardashian look Indian as in South Asian Indian?

[Anonymous]

I know they're Armenian which was ancestrally ruled by Aryans and the first Hindus were Aryans so do you think their ancestors were Hindus? Khloe Kardashian looks more irish from her mom's side and more Caucasian. But Kourtney and Kim don't look Caucasian to me, they look south asian. what are your thoughts?

First, the word "Arya" was taken from Vedas (Hindu scriptures) and given twisted meanings by Western historians (Christian believers) who believed that world was made on 4004 B.C. They came up with different kinds of theories based on linguistics that a mythical "Aryan" race invaded (old theory) or immigrated (modern theory) and introduced Hinduism in Indian sub-continent. The entire theory is based on linguistics and do not have any real evidence. Its an extrapolation. The Iranians borrowed a lot from ancient Vedic religion and Zoroaster built a rival sect opposing Vedic religion. That's how Iran shared Sanskrit and named themselves Aryan. Iranians are NO Aryans and it does not mean race. It originally in the ancient Vedas refers to Hindus or Vedic followers. Indian texts refer to Iranians (mletcha particularly parasikhas), Chinese (China), Huns (Mongolians), Gurundas (British) etc. etc...All of them are called as mletchas including Iranians (foreigners and derogatpory term). Iranians are hardly Arya...Vedic texts do not speak about any region outside Indian subcontinent. Max Mueller and others who came up with these theories are ardent Christian missionaries who wantedly maligned and misrepresented the ancient Vedic texts. Just as Hitler stole Swastiika and misrepresented it, Christian missionaries wearing a veil of academicians in 18-19th centuries knowingly misinterpreted Vedic texts for religio-political purposes. Max Mueller (propounder of Aryan invasion theory) has admitted this (goal being spreading Christianity and maligning Vedic texts) in his own words in his letters to his wife which is published and well known.

yea I saw that ha ha they started hinduism

[likesexontoast]

I don't know where your coming from with the Hindu relation tbh. Armenia, approx 2000 was originally part of Persia. The area where Armenia and Iran is today was originally and still inhabitated by the Aryan people. Today the Aryans, while mostly predominant in Iran, are still evident in relatively large proportion in Armenia, as well India and smaller surrounding countries that only recently in the last 150 years separated from Iran and Armenia.

The Indians, or Hindus, were for a long time part of the Persian/ aka Aryan Empire, but not in the same area as modern day Armenia. The Aryans expanded as far as India and China, and while people were encouraged to travel a lot during that era within the empire, I don't think that the Kardashians' ancestors were Indian.

Their name ''Kardashian'' is a old Persian and Armernian name. People with that or very similar surnames are commom among Armenia and Northern Iran, including my own and I myself are from northern Iran. The "ian" part means children of, and "kardash" I believe means "craftsmen". Hence, I'm pretty sure they are of Aryan ancestry as oppossed to Hindu.

Also keep in mind that Armenians and Aryans do classify as Caucasian also (in relation to the comment about chloe looking more Irish/causcasian). Hope that helps clear things up for you!

[Asker]

but Aryans were/are Hindu. that's how hindusim started. it was brought by the aryans. and yes they were spread out all across iran persia afghanistan uzbekistan to pakistan and india. that is why I believe the kardashians have Indian genes. of course due to spread of christianity and islam theyre no longer hindu.

[likesexontoast]

They are different people. Aryans originated around the Caspian, ie. modern day Armenia and Iran.

Hindus are originated in the Indian subcontinent, ie modern day India and Bangladesh.

They are not the same people.

They have at times prospered togetheras different people under the same state or empirical rule. Hence, some of them have mixed and reproduced together. For example, you can find Zorastrian Indians in India, who are of Hindu and Aryan descent.

However, again, due to the etmylogy

[likesexontoast]

etymolgy of their surname, it is highly unlike;y they are of Hindu descent. Yes Kourtney does look Indian. Khloe looks more American. And Kim tbh looks genuinely Armenian/ Persian. When people from different genetic backgrounds mix, their offspring can show different or varied appearance. Such as in their case.

[Asker]

nope you have your facts wrong. aryans did not originate near armenia. they came from areas archeologists found near russia. they were white skinned dark hair and moved south towards present day india and started the hindu religion. they spread out to the caspian and to the '-stan' countries. which is why many persians and armenians appear Indian looking.

[Asker]

surnames are not a good indicator of cultural genes and characteristics. anyone can change their surname to anything. but history, genes and characteristics cannot be changed.

[Asker]

hindus did not originate in the Indian subcontinent. the Indian subcontinent was inhabited by the aryans. and the land continued to be invaded from the south as well. that is why india is divided between white looking people and really dark looking people. you need to study your history.

[Asker]

you sound like you are brainwashed and have self pride in your armenian/persian heritage. but as a true historian you need to look into the facts more clearly. no offense.

[Asker]

why do you think aryan is synonymously called the "Indo-European" people? what do you think "Indo"? is? it is Indian. you do realize Aryan is a sanskrit word right? as is yoga and karma and kama sutra? sanskrit is an Indian language most related to hindi.

[emilymarie44]

khloe isn't really a kardashian, her mother cheated on Robert kardashian with a guy named Alex I believe was his name... and he is a spitting image of Khloe, hence why Khloe doesn't look like any of the other kardashians. if you google khloe kardashian real dad, pictures come up and the two are IDENTICAL

[mattygfromtheMD32]

I think they'd be hard-pressed to find India on a map. How does one really look Irish?

[Anonymous]

They don't look Caucasion? how does a person have to look, to look caucasion then?

[Betwyn]

Too much fake and bake?

[Asker]

you mean tan?

[Beautybynature]

Indians aren't one shade u idiot! there are dark skin and fair skin indians! she looks indian because she has nice dark hair and beautiful shaped wide eyes

[abundantlyrich]

Nope they don' t look Indian... More like Spanish

[Beautybynature]

a lot of Indians are mistaken for "Spanish" and vice versa. You sound dumb because one can't be spanish! you are latino/hispanic. Spanish is the language! also latinos can be black or white! so latinos dont have a look

[abundantlyrich]

Fuck off. Not all Indians look white. Not all Indians are diluted with white blood. So dont fucking fool yourself that it gives you some sort of special privilege for being better than dark skinned Indians. Kim n khole dont have the Indian look, but share the dark hair n features with Spanish n Indians. Indians still have a distinct look shaped by their food and climate.

[abundantlyrich]

Kim n khole aren't indian and Indians are Spanish. What fucking turds who would label that? So get the fuck off my thread and drop your shit somewhere else. @Beautybynature

[Redshesaid]

I never said all you inbred! you sound dumb as hell! Spanish IS A LANGUAGE! not a people! you are referrring to SPANIARDS FROM SPAIN! or latinos! You can't be "Spanish" you uneducated piece of shit!
also, Indians dont have a look! there are Indians who look Eastern European, etc! and FYI, KIM LOOKS INDIAN! SHE HAS WIDE GAZELLE EYES AND DARK HAIR! latinos aren't typically known for big wide eyes! Indians and middle easterners are! and armenia is close to the far east!

Sunny leone, aishwarya rai, etc! 1/2 of Bollywood look like Kim! Kim doesn't look Nordic! so sit yourself down! and what kidn of idiot are you? someones food affects how they look? ahahahahahahhaah!

[Redshesaid]

Here is a quote from a Latino man:
I am a Hispanic and I like it better than Latino, but thats just me. Common features of Hispanics are high cheek bones, big full lips, and almost Asian looking eyes. Often hair is black or brown.
**SEE!!! LATINOS DONT USUALLY HAVE GAZELLE EYES LIKE KIM!

[abundantlyrich]

Fuck off and stop stalking me @Redshesaid

Kim doesn't look indian and she looks more hispanic metiszo. Enough said.
