I'm fair. My sunburns are easily acquired, take days to heal, and never leave me the dignity of a suntan.

I'm super-pale...red hair though, so I guess it's to be expected!

The problem is that 99.999999999% (or thereabouts) of the world's population does not post on WP. Most people in Africa don't even have phones, let alone computers to post on WP. So your stats will be horribly skewed.

You could do a study of the WP population, however. It would be interesting to know what % of WP folk identify as what ethnic/racial/color group.

That's probably exactly what's going on. :roll:
