Why are there so many white women in China? I am in the Yangtze River valley in the south. First, people with white arms and legs can be seen everywhere. However, people with white faces don't rely much on makeup. Zhihu has the same question. The following is an easy-to-understand answer given by Zhiyi.

White people, yellow people and black people are simply divided according to skin color, but in fact they should be Caucasian, Mongolian and black people. And each race can be subdivided below. However, the sub-divided ethnic skin colors are deep and shallow for various reasons. The division of these three races is mainly based on physical characteristics rather than skin color.

For example, white people are relatively light-skinned, tall, with a high nose, three-dimensional facial features and straight hair; Black people have dark skin color, flat nose, relatively short figure and curly hair; The yellow race is between two kinds of people. However, this does not mean that white people must be whiter than yellow people, but also depends on geographical environment, living habits, social identity and other factors. For example, in northern India, people think they are black, but they are actually a branch of white, and most yellow people are whiter than they want. In Europe, it is popular for white people to sunbathe one by one as a health and beauty. Black people from Africa, whose skin color is light bronze and dark as black charcoal, are also related to the different latitudes in which they live.
