How do whites have WHITE SKIN? White is not an accurate term?

Question

And is made to be used to make us feel like a blank. Look at yourself compared to paper. We have melanin and the fact is our race does have color. Look at anyone from Greece or Spain and you will see many people with tan color in the skin who are white.

Answer 1

I personally have never felt 'blank' because someone called me 'white'...

Answer 2

I think the better term should be caucasian.. its all in the blood type shapes.. Like the way you can tell a person belongs to the black race is by looking at their blood. the shape determines the race.. the person may look white, but in reality are considered a different race.. .. I am myself considered a "white" arab.. Arab isnt a race its a group of folks that speak arabic.. but there are white (caucasian), black (*******), oriental and brown (dont know correct name of the last two ) in the arab peoples.

Answer 3

And Black usually has a negative connotation to it. Europeans tend to be on the lighter side opposed to the olive skin of Greeks and Spaniards.

Answer 4

The word is Caucasian...I hate the word white

Answer 5

I understand what you mean. Black people don't have black skin either. it is brown and any shade of it from very light to caramel to chocolate. people will never learn.

Answer 6

whites arent white, blacks arent black, Indians arent red, Asians arent yellow etc. People just seem to love labels. Too bad they divide us instead of unite us.
