It has often been noted by physical anthropologies that women tend to be fairer (lighter-pigmented) than men of the same ethnicity. We would assume that natural selection has influenced the fact that:


that women generally produce 3-4% less (http://anthro.palomar.edu/adapt/adapt_4.htm)melanin in their skin than do men in all populations of the world

Which ethnicities particularly exhibit lighter-pigmented females?

Please post pictorial examples examples.

Do you mean which ethnicity has the absolute lightest females, or which ethnicity has the biggest pigmentation difference between males and females?

In my experience that'd be Indians and Pakistanis then.

Any examples of siblings or others displaying this trait?

In this thread I made ages ago, you can see large crowd photos of South Asians - both men and women - from my former home city of Leicester. It is quite obvious. http://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?121276-Ethnic-groups-from-Leicester-Central-England&p=2544810&viewfull=1#post2544810
