When you said Japanese have the same color skin as western people, I gotta disagree. There is deffinataly I diffence between asian skin and western skin. Im not even sure how you couldnt see the diffence. Yes there are some white people who have tan enough skin to look asian, and some asian people who look light enough to look western, but there is deffinatly a diffrence. I know alot of Japanese celebrity's have light enough skin to look white, but they are either wearing a lot of make up, or they just pick really light skinned people to be celebritys.
hmm... asian people from thailand, indonesia, vietnam and such places have a darker tone of skin than those in japan in my oppinion.
Even so not everyone is pure white caucasian here in europe so the skin tone tends to get a bit darker, even though it isn't much.

I have a few japanese friends and their skin is about the same color as mine... only the hair is darker, of course :P

And from my time in japan pretty much everyone i saw there was about the same skin color as people here in europe, except for those overly tanned chicks that walked around with barely no clothes at all

(it could be that maybe i'm colorblind though ยด^_^)
