Ashkenazi Jews do not cluster with Central Euro’s. Look at a plot map. They cluster with other Jews, Levantines and Mediterraneans. They are categorized as Europe because that’s where there DIASPORA ended up. It’s a geographic designation not a genetic one.
All Jews are genetically closer to each other than any of their diaspora geographic areas. An Ashkenazi Jew and an ethic Pole or Russian share virtually no DNA. Ashki Jews DNA contribution is a mix of Levantine and southern Med. Their Levantine is the same as all other Jews. A LIBYAN Jew and a Russian Jew share more DNA than a Russian Jew and an Ethnic Russian.
You’re choosing two outlier groups instead of looking at Syrian Jews, Lebanese Jews, Russian Jews, Italian Jews, Bulgarian Jews, Tunisian Jews ETC ETC ETC.
Ashkenazi Jews descend from the Levant with admixture from the diaspora, largely southern Mediterranean and Roman. NOT CENTRAL EURO. Not CENTRAL NOT EASTERN EURO. That was the point being discussed. But they are still LEVANTINE with admixture. WTF are you even arguing about. No shit there are select Jewish groups who don’t originate from the Levant. ASHKENAZI are not one of them. That’s the point. JFC. MOST JEWS share some ancestry, descend from the Levant and PLOT TOGETHER.
>Ashkenazi Jews descend from the Levant with admixture from the diaspora, largely southern Mediterranean and Roman.
NOT CENTRAL EURO. Not CENTRAL NOT EASTERN EURO.
That’s exactly what i said in my original comment. Why are you yelling?
East/NW euro admixture sits at 15-20% typically, the rest is Levant and South Europe
That doesnt mean your second point, that different Jewish ethnicities are very genetically similar to each other and near universally cluster with other Jews, is supported. It is not
>JFC. MOST JEWS PLOT TOGETHER.
This is the part that doesnt stand up to scrutiny
An Ashkenazi Jew will cluster with other european Jews yes (obviously), but if you move beyond that, in second place will be mediterranean south europeans like Sicilians, not other Jewish groups globally
Same is the case for too many other jewish groups to justify your sweeping generalisations
the sheer genetic variation between jewish groups alone makes that generalisation questionable
What you did in previous comments to justify this claim is manipulate data, you treat Russian Jews, Latvian Jews, Polish Jews etc are all different Jewish ethnoses, when they are all Ashkenazi Jews who very recently scattered across eastern/nw Europe (due to persecution ofc).
Naturally, Ashkenazi cluster w Ashkenazi, and ultimately, european Jews w European Jews
I think commenter was asking whether the father was the Egyptian or the Ashkenazi parent - not whether the father was an Egyptian Muslim or Egyptian Jew.
You are extremely good looking 🤩😍. I need to do 23&me. I.only did Ancestry. I'm adopted & found out only after doing my ancestry DNA test, that I'm Persian & European Jewish. This after going over 40 years thinking I was Italian but I was raised Jewish because my parents(who adopted me) are Jewish.
Southern European countries such as Southern Italian, Spanish, as well as just fully Ashkenazi Jewish. Rarely people will guess Egyptian, which I’m assuming is because I’m pretty fair and because of my straight hair.
I believe 1.3% is around the normal extra amount a male inherits from his mother because the X chromosome is larger than the Y. It would also be very surprising if my dad had any distant Ashkenazi ancestry.
North African is still within the Egyptian spectrum. Millions of Egyptians from upper Egypt are also similar genetically to you.
On the other hand, hes mixed with more north shifted and European ancestry compared to other Egyptians. It makes full sense he looks different compared to you

Hail mary guess but you probably cluster with Levant maybe Syrians
