You know, now I'm wondering. Why is it the term White? No European is White skinned, unless they've been out of the sun for like their entire lives(which in that case, I think there's bigger problems for them to worry about, I'm pretty sure that's a health hazard right?). It's more of a tan or peach color.
Then there's another oddity. Ok there's White and Black. But why is it then, there's Asian? Asian isn't a color?
The whole terminology is just weird and frankly dumb.

Yeah, those are the three main "races" of people. All other groups came from one of those three (but ultimately we all descended from Adam and Eve; all humans do at least; they probably had medium brown skin).
Calling asians "yellow" or Native Americans "red" is viewed by many as being derogatory so you don't see them being used all that often.

Well that and I've never seen a NA or Asian with Yellow or Red skin either soo....like none of these terms make any sense apart from I guess the Brown and Black, because some Humans have those skin colors.
White isn't a skin color(I mean unless someone has lived their whole life without seeing the sun), Red isn't a skin color, Yellow isn't a skin color.
Who came up with this anyway? Where did this thought process come from? Because they must have been on drugs, if they were seeing these colors on people's bodies.
