"Sri Lankans are primarily low caste laborers from the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. People form Tamil Nadu belong to Dravidian race and are of darker completion as compared to North India.

So I guess when darker completion people mix with darker completion people, who are also not that good looking, you expect really ugly people. "

The above is infact incorrect. The majority race in Sri Lanka are Sinhalese, who originate from North India. The minority race are Tamils, who are infact Indians originating from Tamil Nadu. Therefore the ugly darker complexion "Sri Lankans" are not infact Sri Lankanas, they are Tamils from India.

From a scientific perspective, I believe it is due to several factors, inbreeding, mixing with the outcasts from the Dravidian South Indian people, such as fishmongers who are classified as low caste in the Hindu religion. I sincerely pity them.
