Olive skin; does it really exist or is it a way for brown people to feel a bit whiter?

[Oliver Tooth]

People referred to as “olive-skinned” usually look light brown to me.
Some say Gracile Meds have olive skin, but Gracile Meds who like to stay indoors look pale and those who tan look orange or brown depending on how much they tan.
Others say Arabs generally have olive skin, not sure guys they look proper brown to me.
Who are good examples of skin with “green undertone”?

Non-Nordic looking Europeans are the majority in Europe.

In fact Nordic counties are so woke they have lost their country to outsiders what good does non olive skin do to them?. Not sure on the merits on the condescending tone towards Europeans from a New World ignoramus.

Even in countries like Portugal and your beloved Greece, most natives aren't olive (when untanned), even though a large minority certainly are. As for the OP's insinuation, pure brown skin in the Gulf Arab and South Asian sense does not exist among Europeans and even among West Asians it is a minority, so yes the darker types among the latter groups are olive.

N.B. Yes I know that Gulf Arabs and South Asians definitely don't look alike either, but both have large numbers of people with truly brown as opposed to olive skin.

Most of it is just tanned brunet-white skin. Actual light brown skin is rare among caucasoids (yep, caucasoids in general).

Gulf Arabs and Northern South Asians are usually light brown and they are (at least predominantly) Caucasoid.

IMO olive skin is very fair skin that is not ruddy/ pinkish and is found in Southern europe, west Asia, north African and the levant. It tans well and most people with olive skin look brown during the summer if they live in a place with a lot of sun. This is what I would consider olive skin:



It could also be described as very light brown, I guess. It could be also described as white since it is a very fair skin tone untanned.

4] It generally refers to moderate or lighter tan or brownish skin, and it is often described as having tan, brown, cream, greenish, yellowish, or golden undertones.

It’s not rare. It depends which Caucasoids. Southern European Caucasoids have an abundance of olive-skinned people.

I have already replied once to the uncultured new world trash not going to go into it anymore. Some of my co nationals are darker than what you would expect from the North sea but I trust them more in time of battle shoulder to shoulder than people who want to have trannsvestites in the military. I would laugh at them hysterically.
