What's your skin colour?

I'm pretty pale. I have a little bit of a tan on my arms/neck/legs/etc., but other than that, yeah. XD
 
I'm Hispanic so naturally I must be...
PALE. AS. SIN.
Seriously, everyone in school who talks to me thinks I'm white even though I can speak better Spanish than them. Not that I blame them though, I mean I'm pretty frikin' light-toned AND I speak with a mid-western accent (is that what you call the standard 'white' accent?)
My arms are darker though since they're exposed more often to the sun, but my face...ahahaha!
 
Alright... So, I'm like a to the point where I could be considered 'looking' like a black male whose really pale for his racial color. I'm half black, half white and I tan easily. :)

Just for people's curiousity, I'm (on my white side) French (last name is French), Hungarian (great-great grandmother immigranted from here), Scottish (grandfather's dad), Irish (great-great-great grandparents immigranted from there). On my black side, I'm African (that's kind of... Obvious now) and Cherokee (Native American).

I go back and forth between pale and tan. It depends on how much I get outside. Lately I've started swimming and getting more tan, but as soon as I spend a couple days away from the pool, I become pale again.

I'm Jewish (yes, it's a blood thing too), Irish, and Austrian, so that might explain it XD

My brother and sister are Sicilian Italian, so they're darker than me. They also tan really well, whereas I always, always burn. (After the burn, I get the tan, though.)

My littlest brother is Polish and Irish and Austrian, like me, so he's pale too.

My mom's a mixture of practically all of Europe, and she's a normal apricot color.

I'm average white. I'm starting to get tanner though, because I've been skating a lot and been swimming/bike riding.

As far as ethnicity goes, I'm Jewish, Hungarian, French, Australian, and a little bit Irish. I'm Jewish both by blood and religion (No racist jokes plzkthx. I, like everyone else, never got to choose my religion. =o)

You can't be Jewish through the blood. If your mother is Jewish, then you're Jewish, but you can still change your religion since you can't change the fact that your're English, Korean, French, etc.
 
As white as any descendant of Russia can possibly be. Well, not quite, I'm just generic white, whatever.
 
I'm full-blooded Filipino so it's only natural for me to be tan-brownish kind of skin tone.
 
I'm neither dark nor light brown but meduim. Depends on the light you see me in:
Broad daylight,Room light, on subways:Light brown
In the shade, without room light or very lightly lit; Dark brown.
Ancestry:South Asian (A bit east Asian on my dad's side)

Though my nationality (country that I identify with) is most defiantly Australian.
 
Mostly pale, with a touch of brown (peach)
 
Oh yeah, just to add that I'm half Cambodian and part French and part Chinese. :P

I don't really know how the French blood came to be, but it's there. >.>'
 
The doctor thought I had Jaundice when I was born... Nuff said. Well... anyways, I'm technically 'white' but I'm a bit darker, not pale, but I'm not mistaken for any other race.

I don't like this thread. We're on a pokemon forum; I don't see what difference skin color makes.

The thought spurred from comparing myself to my family - I thought it was interesting to see a lot of skin colours within my immediate family, so I made this. Skin colour is influenced by location, genetic background and even disease. I think your skin tells a lot about your physical history, both genetic and in your lifespan. It's rather facinating to me (hell, maybe I should become a dermatologist).

Usually when the phrase is used, they refer to the area in which Judaism began, which typically had people with tan/darker skin. I see your point though - I have Jewish ancestory and they were from Hungary XD

Well, I do have my fair share of Eastern European blood in me as well, as pointed out above. Dunno about my ancestory past that point...
 
Quite light asian skinned.. I think. I suppose I'm a little more tanned than my friends. :] 75% Vietnamese and 25% Chinese.
 
It's sort of hard to exactly describe my skin tone.
I'm just. . . pale. Though I do get pretty tanned during the summer.
 
Smooth caramel mocha, duh!
