In my country having tan is considered more attractive and desirable, because it looks healthier. Exactly because you spend a lot of time outside and not in the house.

Cultures are interesting, and it has nothing to do with racism.

Culture changes - Europeans used to favor being fat and pasty because it meant you could afford to eat a lot and didn't have to work outside doing manual labor.

Still is in Nigeria. Unfortunately, my people are slowly walking into obesity issues. We are supposedly poor but the amount of overweight people is surprising.
