Is it true that a person with black skin has fewer layers of skin, which means muscle tone is much more visible than a person with white skin?

I am not sure where I heard this and have no idea if it is true. Can someone help me out please? Thanks x

Dag, use some common sense here. If black people's skin was thin wouldn't you be able to see the blood under their skin, as with people who's skin is very thin? The reason you see more muscle in black people is because black people have more muscle strands and less fatty tissue. Look back in history before fitness centers and you will see black males built like body builders. And this was before steroids and growth hormones. They were getting all that good nutrition from the food. Women, of all ethnic groups have a tendency of developing more fat especially after child birth. When people of non color blush, become embarrassed, lie, or some other emotional situation, depending on whether or not they can control it, blood will rush to the surface and they become red. Cold weather and alcohol brings blood to the surface of the skin also. The last time I looked I never saw a dark skin person turn red from embarrassment or from lieing, and not even from alcohol.
Do they teach common sense in schools now? If they don't they need to start. whites males have become bigger now do to the excessive intake of steroids, be it in the food , or ingested so other way. Back in history if a white man was exceptionally big he would stand out and get all the girls. Look at the Germans Dutch, French, and other European cultures who's men were mostly short and stocky. But hey, don't take my word for it, go do the research for yourself.

Every one has 3 layers of skin, the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutaneous fat. Some people have a thick skin, but that also runs in any race of people. As you get older your skin becomes thinner, but that is due to age. If you notice old people bruise a lot easier.

Black people have more melonin in their skin (pigments). Other than that, people are all alike. Maybe the black people you know like to work out more.
