I get sick with all people here make stupid threads like "Who is lighter" .
Eyes/Hair and skin color is only geographical and weather conditions evolution and different than race

Skull shape , nose , place of the eyes are the important factors to race.
Thats why Nordids and Meds are actually the same race while Alpines are different even if they are lighter...

According to anthropologists, features > pigmentation,however on TA,either you are blonde-blue eyed,white like a fridge or you are a native of the rain forests.

Same way we could go and ask: Why race matters? Why spices matters? Why dead or alive matters? .... as we all will be dead one day anyway. Who cares shit about...

Things matters if/only people wants/believes them to matter!

What comes to skin ... it is the biggest organ of whole humans (body) so damn hell it matters. It is also extreme easy to notice.
So if looks matters (as it does for most of people ... no matter do they admit that or not), it is natural that skin (tone) matters too.

If you guys care about features that much, i have Slavic (face and mainly body shape, lips and nose) Mediterranean (eyes, eyebrows, hair) features but i have no any connection with any slav nation. So where does it come from then? My pigmentation is definetely what i am, tho.

I am not against your idea btw, i am just trying to get its logic

Good point.. features(especially orbital shapes,protrusion ratio of supraorbital ridges and mid-facial ortognatism,prognatism) are much more important than pigmentation of course,however,these are important to a certain degree/extent,in short,pigmentation does matter,yet is not everything.
