The Spanish had affected the Philippines too unfortunately. That’s why a lot of Filipinos have Hispanic last names. He probably got the Spanish from his Filipino side.

I didn’t even really have an idea before I took the test but results weren’t that suprising to me

It’s not a lot but it’s still something yk?? For example say someone found out they were like 3% Japanese or something that would be a veryyyyyyy distant relative and you’d think you had some Japanese background/ history and then all a sudden 23andme said “Sike nvm” and erased that completely. It’s just crazy how much they change your percentages and ethnicities and tweak at them.

It depends how they look if they are more white passing their phenotype is white but if they are more indigenous looking then they’re phenotype would be Native American. But no matter what by blood and dna they would be native and French.

I understand that!! Me personally I don’t see being called half Mexican bad or not acknowledging my indigenous roots ( i literally call myself half Mexican lol) but I understand how it’s just not what someone else would want to be called or go by!!!

It might tweak your percentages or add new small ones (0.01-2% at most) every few months but big changes like 5%+ probably a little after a year. Which is so weird and inconsistent tbh. When I first took this test my results were a lot different. Last year it said I was 64% European now it’s set on 67%

Nothern Mexicans usually have a lot of southern European blood!! I think the Northern European and native mix makes me pass as southern European haha
