For real tho there was a gene test made on large groups of people living in Turkey. Showed something like 25% Anatolian. There are hardly any Turks living in Turkey. Original Turks look like Mongols. Tuvans, Tatars, Kazakhs etc are the real Turks.

Possible that most Turks have Balkan genes and equally possible that Balkanic people have Turkic genes as a result of around 500 years of living together.

Sort of this. Well, part of Turkey is in Europe and some of it Asia.

Plus most Turks are a decent % european genetically, hence why they do not look like other Turkic ethnic groups.

I agree ^.

I have a Turkish colleague at work. He could totally pass as native in a country like Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Serbia etc ...
He showed me a picture of his brother. His brother would never pass as a native in the south of Europe. He is a ginger, white skinned (i.e. pale) and looks far too British to ever pass as a Southern European.
I met other Turkish people and some of them look "Turkish" and others look like they could fit somewhere in Europe. They never look semitic.

A small section of Turkey is in Europe.

Well when Turks arrived to Anatolia (Turkey without Istanbul and beyond) the people who were there did not magically disappear.

Nowadays people move around a lot but for the locals that have been living in same city for 3 gens I can tell this:

Northwestern Turkey(Istanbul) : mix of Balkanic, Turkic.
Western&southern Turkey : mix of Greek, Turkic
Northern Turkey : Georgian, Greek, Turkic, Armenian
Eastern Turkey : Turkic, Kurdish, Armenian, Arab
Middle Turkey : Turkic mostly

Did not include the subraces. Turkic means Tatar, Turkoman, Oghuz, Ahiska and many more.

You should care more though. Your post is clearly written by someone who has never been to Turkey.

"Stepping away from its religious roots"? Sigh.

I for one have dark eyes and hair color but when I am in Europe I had lots of random Russian people approach me asking something in Russian. I learnt to say "Niet Paruski gavariti" lol finally.

My grandpas family came from Serbia in mid 1800s. So did lots of families who 'felt' Turkish when Ottoman Empire was collapsing. Hence the Balkan looks on western Turks.

Colloquial identity: Most Turks identify with being Turkish, as in culture wise and as citizens of the Turkish republic. The exception being the Kurds, they have a very complicated relationship with identifying as Turkish. Regarding European, the more westernized a Turk is, the more he/she is willing to identify as European - especially in the western parts of Turkey and the heavy tourist areas, many people are more likely to say they identify as European. But as the majority of Turkish people dont live in these areas, as a whole, there is still a cultural and mentality clash between the historic legacy and traditions and the European 'West'.
Erdogan uses the Kurds in many ways - the conservative ones in rural parts for votes, since Ankara and Istanbul lol'd at him; the "different" ones he simply portrays as terrorists, and Erdo-stooges like that Sinan09400 incel loser lap it up.

The guy is so damaged - being rejected by Turkish women left and right - that he takes it out on Kurds who are "terrorists". Every Kurd is a YPG member, didn't you know that?

You have no luck at the Pavyon, I guess? You probably have to pay for it - Serbian imports, not really Turkish women. Like you - who never learned Ataturk's lessons and are instead simply a pawn for Erdogan's chit.
