<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Despite dravidianist propoganda, that tambrams are north indians
there has been at least a 30% admixture with the local tamil population
Wherever brahmins have migrated they have inducted some members of the local priesthood, literate class into brahminhood, despite the so called caste rigidity
There are brahmins in Thailand who look like Thais
There are brahmins in Assam who look assamese and so on
Meaning, 30% of the tambrams can 'pass' as OBC-Dwijas
I fully expect those who can 'pass' as OBC-Dwijas to get false caste certificates and declare themselves as OBC-Dwijas This can easily be done in cities

I am a Tamil Brahmana myself.
Why should Brahmanas try to pass off as an Ambattan?
We got better things to do than try to lower ourselves.
There is no doubt that there is some native admixture among the Tamil Brahmanas, but we are predominantly of Aryan ancestory.
About 30% of Iyers and Iyengars are very fair skinned and can pass for a European.
Another 40% are "maanaram" or lighter.
About 30% are dark skinned. Even the dark ones have good sharp features.
The 30% of lower tier Brahmanas should be helped by the other better off ones, instead of leaving them at the mercy of the Ambattan brigade.
North Indians are the natural Allies of the Tam Bram.
I find that North-Indian OBCs like Jats, Yadavas, Gujars, Kurmis are friendly with me. The same is not true of an Ambattan.
Also the reason Thai Brahmanas look like thais is because the first settlers did not take any women with them, so they must have married with native women.
