That's not always through. I live in the Philippines. It says in the map that we're suppoesed to have dark skin. How come I'm as fuckin white as Snow White?
Well then family genetics. Was your mom white? Was your dad white? Where you originally born in the Phillippines? You have to think about these. This pertains to native born citizens with native born parents and so forth.
My family is full Filipino also and me and my cousins are very light-skinned. It's generally talking about the majority, guest. Btw Reyna, Reyna is my nickname. Random factoid
IF you were from South Africa, then your excuse would be that your ancestors were not from Africa but instead from the Netherlands, courtesy of the Dutch Indies Trading Company colonists. But you aren't, Vlekkie.
To answer the Filipino/a regarding their whiteness, the variation in skin color might have been caused by the colonization by the Spanish and the resulting interbreeding there.
You keep denying and calling me a liar, following me around. You're probably sitting in Ghana eating a bat and getting Ebola, which I for the record would gladly become sick of before I meet you.
If you don't like me Vlekkie, why do you feel the strong desire to keep messaging me. Its almost like you want to ask me out or something. No means no.
Does anyone else not agree with the top half of Australia?

It may not be that way nowadays, but think of Aboriginies and other original Australians and their skin; many Australians are a lot paler today due to their pale ancestors sent from Britain.
actually, melanin in the skin prevents the UV rays from destroying folic acid in prenant women's blood therefor preventing spinabifida which is why it's an adaptation. Humans readapted as they headed up north to having lighter skin because the darker skin would not allow enough rays through and therefore we didn'T get enough vitamine D to help absorb vitamine C and we would die from serious bone malformations. Welcome to natural selection people! :)
You are 'Snow White' because someone (or several folks) within your family tree played did the dirty with white Spaniards or whatnot. Like the post said, skin color is immaterial. Judging or evaluating due to it is stupid and primitive.
