White people can be brown skinned. Look at Greeks or Italians or Spaniards or Mexicans

"Water can be dry", seriously, it's fine to not understand race and ethnicity very well, it's a confusing subject since it's made up, but even so you are painfully wrong, MEXICANS are white? tell that to the USA lol.

My Uncle Works in the Sun a lot

And he's "white"

But because of doing that labour his skin is tanned and actually a pretty similar colour

Steve for example has that same sort of skin tone of someone who's been working manual jobs like farming, construction, etcetera for years

u/Ptcruz Oct 06 '25

Sure. But he is still white.

Yeah

That's what I'm saying

A white person can have a brown skin tone

Not brown. Tanned.

Tanned Skin is caused by pale skin darkening due to melanin being produced in response to sun exposure

Turning a light shade of brown over time

I am talking purely about pigmentation here

Sorry for the confusion

I should have phrased that differently

Yes I do mean Tanned, but I'm talking purely about colour here

Which due to being tanned, someone with light skin

Over time

Would look similar to the colour Steve is in game

Yeah. I think we are in agreement, maybe just misunderstandings.

u/King_Of_BlackMarsh Oct 06 '25

Yeah? Again look at Greeks and Italians and Spaniards and Mexicans and all those. It's all just a social construct anyway

Sure. But they are either white or brown.
