Why is it that "white adjacent" guys like Brenton Thwaites, Freddie Smith and Anthony Recker are popular on DL?

Are they considered "exotic" in some way?

White adjacent.

No, dumb OP, Anthony Recker is popular because of his big, round bubble butt.

I realize that and that he is popular for that reason primarily. What I'm curious is why so many white adjacent guys like him are popular on DL.

Anthony Recker is half-Italian. How does that make him white-adjacent?

It's precisely the Italian/Sicilian half of him that makes him white adjacent.

Brenton seems part Aboriginal. Australian blood lines are hard to trace given their pasts.

Freddie Smith seems like he was adopted. His family are so white bread, Midwestern but he looks Hispanic or Italian.

Recker looks mixed race, part Sicilian, Hispanic or Middle Eastern. I recall someone saying that when he lived in Arizona that he and his then girlfriend would be confused for Mexicans and people would start speaking to them in Spanish.

The reason Brenton is popular is because he is sweet and pretty, like Shawn Mendes.

Did he play the Christopher Atkins part? If so, it's nice that they didn't feel they had to hire another white actor for the remake.

I can smell those mulattos and quadroons a thousand paces away. My nose never errs, sir. And I do declare that Mr. Clean was a mulatto. For sake of ending our minor yet vexing disagreement in the manner of gentlemen, however, I shall meet you half way and say he is a quadroon.
