    Maybe you're a Mexican from the Simpsons?

    My dad is really familiar with Mexican culture and says that Mexicans come in just as many colors as Americans.

    maybe you drank a lot of water and your real color washed away :p..kidding.

    its normal, maybe your parents mixed races.

    One of my Filipino friends is the only dark skinned one in her immediate family and that's because genes skipped. She looks almost black- skin wise and Everyone else has that light Filipino skin.

    Depends what your heritage is. If you have European origins then it's normal.

    Does it honestly matter what color you are?

  • Mexicans are people from Mexico... And as a Mexican, you should know your history ! Mexicans could be the natives on the land (Mayans) or even the European white folk (Spanish)! And of course, all the mixes in between. Not all Mexicans are brown, it depends on the mix. Which many are mixed nowadays (with Mayan and European).

    You could have jaundice, which is a sign that there may be something wrong with your liver. Is the sclera (white part of your eyes) yellow too?

    I' Mexican-American, and i have light skin with yellow undertones. I recently found out that my grandfather on my mother's side had asian lineage. In other words, i have asian genes, but i don't look asian at all. My skin color is slightly yellow though, which actually gives me a beautiful glow, which I love!

    has your skin alwzys been that color, or has it become that color? it COULD be hepatitus or a disease. if it's always been that way, I wouldn't worry. it's probably a gene from an ancestor thar decided to come out.

    Not all Mexicans are brown. You're either not full Mexican or just really ignorant.
