Are Turkish people obsessed with their skin color?

That is not Turanism.
Turanism means to uniting all Turkic people.

You don't really get this at all .

Turanism is not about force or war .

It's about doing what is normal for Turks to do .

Maybe, but only Turanists make those claims, so they are generally called Turanists. Although calling them Turkocentrists or Turanocentrists would probably be more accurate.

Fine but one would argue that Turks being Turkocentric would stillmake sense for Turks .

Currently Turks are Russiacentric , Irancentric , Eurocentric , Arabcentric ; you name it .

Unification of Turks is in the interest of Turks , obviously .

I know Turkey is much diverse, but it seems to me like skin color is important there and how much European someone looks like. Your opinion?
Turkish people are welcome to comment.

No we are not. It doesnt have any importance if you are not too dark (that can be a bit weird for people). No one care have too white skin. Even women like to get tanned. When they go to holiday lie down under sun for hours to get tanned. Example my mother.. Also she always says to me why I hide under umberella, my skin should see sun a bit and I should not come back like milk lool
