[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tukuler: [QB] [QUOTE][b]Doug M posted: ... the "white" complexion of women was often enhanced with face paint.[/b][/QUOTE]. Very true as whiteness was seen as a beauty plus. I'm sure even the women in Shih-cheng's works with naturally milk-white breasts or white legs or white buttocks applied white cosmetic to their faces making them an unnatural powdery white. Shih-cheng's books apply yellow complexion to death or illness. Being complexion descriptors, not racial designations, neither of the colors white nor yellow appear within quotation marks in the literature. One example [QUOTE] it was a beautiful and seductive woman. Behold, she has: Glossy, black, raven’s feather tresses; Dark, curved, new moon eyebrows; Clear, cold, almond eyes; Redolently fragrant cherry lips; A straight, full, [URL=http://ndrln]alabaster nose[/URL]; Thickly powdered red cheeks; A handsome, silver salver face; A light, lissome, flowerlike figure; Slender, [URL=http://ndrln]jade-white, scallion-shoot fingers[/URL]; A cuddlesome, willow waist; A tender, pouting, [URL=http://ndrln]dough-white tummy[/URL]; Tiny, turned-up, pointed feet; Buxom breasts; and [URL=http://ndrln]Fresh, white legs[/URL].[/QUOTE]. I hope I clarified use of body skin color in Chinese lit of the same century as Shakespeare. And to expand further I offer this face complexion chart from http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=009678;p=1#000027 [b]EDIT:[/b] [ Note Lucy Liu's Asian complexion reps the European midrange. Darker than Emma Stone, lighter than Sandra Bullock. ] [IMG]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/cf/05/cb/cf05cbe7f36af10d45e6bbcae2d5fb84.png[/IMG] Then of course the ES archive has/had quite a few threads on the non-northeast or Jungle Asians as Ali Wong puts it. They are/were chock full of research and imgs posted by [b]Doug M[/b]. Japan, Korea, and northeast China span the same latitude as France and Spain. The lands with Asian blacks is the same latitude as Sahel and Sahra Africa. Intesting are those Tibetans and Mongolians with brown/grey-brown skin. But then like the blue/purple black skinned Andamanese I think all three peoples males are nry D (split from DE). Will dig up an independent Pacific Asian authored genetics article and post here later maybe. [/QB][/QUOTE]
