    I am so white that a colleague once asked me in all serious if it was safe for me to go out in the sun. The English sun.

        Yes, that’s why I must always make sure my room is free of moths before I switch the light off.

    I clicked, "other", because although I pretty much identify as Caucasian, I'm half Colombian, and half American which in my case means that I'm half Hispanic/Latina, and half Anglo-Saxon. I just want to take this opportunity to say that Hispanic/Latino is an ethnicity, and not a race. A Hispanic/Latino person can be White, Black, Native American, or Asian, or any mix thereof.

        It's really stupid and unequal the way 'white' is normally interpreted as meaning practically totally white heritage. For example, Obama is called 'black', not 'white', even though he has equal black/white parentage. The thing to remember though is that race is ultimately a sociological phenomenon; Obama is 'black' because that's how people see him (which is turn determines how he sees himself).

        Note that, Caucasian (at least traditionally) refers to not just north European, but all of Europe, plus north African, Arab, Persian, Indian etc. So it's actually interpreted more restrictively nowadays than it was back in the day (when they thought there were three distinct races, Caucasian being one of them). Make of that what you will.

        For the record though, I do agree that latinx is an ethnicity, which is not the same thing as race, and that it makes sense for latinx people to consider themselves white (which I also do).

    I'm Hispanic. The Puerto Rican kind. XD

    Other Hispanics usually can't tell that I'm Hispanic and refuse to believe it when I tell them.

    White people tend to know I'm Hispanic but never seem to know which kind of Hispanic.

      There's something about Puerto Rican people that I just love, but I don't know what it is. I grew up in Texas where the majority of Hispanic/Latino people were Mexican, and my mom is from Colombia. Maybe it's because it's different. I there were two Puerto Rican, ginger twin boys who were in my junior high school for a while, and everyone just loved them. Maybe it's an island thing?

        Interesting how theres not many Puerto Ricans in your area. My town has a lot of Puerto Rican people.
        The weather's getting warm, so that means I'm gonna wind up seeing Piragua vendors, vendors that sell live chickens, and vendors that sell fruits like quenepas, mangoes, and guanabanas.

            It's a bittersweet fruit with a thick green peel and a seed in the middle. They're pretty good.

    If you're looking for color then it's Brown, a shade somewhere between light tan and very dark brown. Aren't we all.

    I've never really figured out this race thing. The questions always intermingle color, nationality, and ethnicity.
    I know Africans that are white, light brown, and dark brown, I've even known Hispanic Africans.
    I guess somebody would get all twisted and bent out of shape if you asked in your poll.

      According to Estee Lauder when they had a light diffusing foundation line called Lucidity my color is Ivory Beige, and that's good enough for me. Then one day I went to Macy's to buy some more loose powder, and I discovered that the whole Lucidity line of foundation, pressed powder and loose powder had been discontinued entirely. I was horrified, it seemed like only yesterday that I had discovered the stuff, but it turns out that it was actually thirty years past, and that was a few years back. It makes me feel old.

      Mother nature is a cruel mistress, and Father time ain't no friend of mine.

      A lot of people in the UK are porcelain skinned and nowhere near a “light tan”. I get the impression that having the complexion of a Victorian ghost is far less common in sunnier countries.

        I agree there are some that would argue about white and black because I've seen people very close to both extremes. The whitest I've seen, without make-up, were in Japan and China, however, when you put something pure white or true black against their skin there is normally a shade or two different.
        But yes their are some very close. My main point was the race argument, are we doing color, nationality, or ethnicity. Because it's always mixed in most polls and why does color matter so damn much, except to divide.

          It’s only marketed as unattractive in majority white countries to sell fake tans and sunbeds. Meanwhile in Asian countries where naturally tanned golden skin is more normal being pale is marketed as attractive to sell skin whitening products. Moral of the story, accept your natural skin.
