Sujay Tyle has Caucasian, Eastern Asian, and Mediterranean features from this picture. I'm sure that if I saw his other photos and vantage points, I'd think that he looks more Indic. So I don't see what the big deal is. Perhaps it is meaningless issues like phenotypes that Zaman and Tyle were able to best focus their time and attention on much more important areas...and why you, Ananda, lurk on SM.</p> Within the Indian subcontinent, you’ll see all kinds of features within a population.

Stop trying to include anyone you feel like under the label to bolster your claiml. I will give you that Jeffrey Lim is probably half and Laura Deming could be mixed too..</p> Sujay Tyle does not look East Asian at all.

They are in the really elite areas. This Thiel fellow thingy is not as elite as say, owning a bank or a Hollywood studio or a RE developer.

So do Jeffrey Lim and Laurie Deny. Five are full Chinese. Another, Eden Full, also looks full east Asian. Sebastian Zany looks SE Asian or mixed. Together they are half of this elite group despite being a tiny fraction of the American population. I think that is the real story here. The Chinese are replacing the Jews as the intellectual overachievers in America.</p> Sujay Tale looks part East Asian. So do Jeffrey Lim and Laurie Deny. Five are full Chinese.
