Chat GPT shared an important information saying that Japanese people are lighter than meds.
There isn't a simple answer to whether Japanese people are "lighter" than Mediterranean people, as skin tone varies greatly within both populations.
Individual variation: Within both Japanese and Mediterranean populations, there's a wide range of skin tones, with individuals having lighter, darker, and in-between complexions.
Cultural factors: In some East Asian cultures, including Japan, a lighter skin tone has been traditionally associated with beauty and higher status, leading to practices like sun avoidance and the use of "whitening" products, according to Sage Journals. This can contribute to the perception of lighter skin among some Japanese people who follow these cultural norms.
Genetic and environmental factors: Both populations have adapted to their environments over time, and skin pigmentation is influenced by latitude and sun exposure. Lighter skin in both Europeans and East Asians evolved independently due to separate mutations, according to Quora.
In conclusion, it's inaccurate to make a generalized statement that Japanese people are lighter than Mediterranean people, as skin color is a complex trait influenced by various factors and exhibits a wide range within all populations
