i'm polish and have a darker complexion - WHY?

i'm nearly 100% polish and a bit ukranian
but i have medium brown hair, light brown eyes, and i'm constantly tan all year round to some extent (i get very tan very easily in summer)

can anyone explain why this is?

Many Polish people have darker complexion and get tan easily in summer. We are not Eskimos. Do you have any other problems?

My mother was like that as far as the complexion... My Dad said it was the Gypsey (misspelled I think) in her.

I have the same thing and till this day i still have no idea about it haha ... i did hear something about when the huns...really i dunno

Try water and soap.

my whole family is fair skin, tanned in the summer but the winter we turn pail......my brother on the other hand is really dark all year round......my grandpa was the same way, and we are only Polish as far as we know.....

my brother is really dark though, my mom calls him cygan all the time as a joke....our little gypsy :D

I'm dark too

You look a little pale to me, G.

Only in winter fur.

You are dark because at some point one of your ancestors slept with a mongrol. AKA as gypsy. You are not of full european heritage.

Mongrel dumbass

...if you're going to slag someone off at least try to use the correct word.

"Mongrel dumbass"

Thank you for the spell check you should know you are a "mongrel" yourself correct? How's grandma moon-hawk coping with Small Pox??

"if you're going to slag someone off at least try to use the correct word."

How was I slagging him off? He asked a question and I answered it. You simply claim he is a "mongrel dumbass" whatever that means.

You're talking to me ?

I can understand if you were being friendly about it, but it's not a nice word and taken offensively.

And is this your little feeble attempt at poking fun at me because I'm Native American? Sad...keep talking and some day you might say something intelligent.

"And is this your little feeble attempt at poking fun at me because I'm Native American? Sad"

I thought you were polkiem? odd..

Grzegorz_ no nothing was about or directed to you.

Nie jestem polakiem...What's so odd? Have I ever claimed to be?

"What's so odd?"

Nothing odd. I have to ask what brought you close to the polish language and culture?

I always wanted to be darker it just looks, well, healthier to me

FISZ: would you mind telling us what is your tribe? People in Poland have a lot of respect and sympathy to Native Americans, although most of them "learned about Indians" from Karol May. I'm sure you heard about this guy by now, right?

Polish people went to Central America and adopted babies bringing them up as Polish. I am sad to inform you of these truths. This is the reason for the tanned skin.

Europe Awake just likes to play the racist.


it sure is, it has a smooth silky shine to it,

did you not leave already? in tears?. Post rubbish elsewhere nobdoy likes you here.

What does Europe have to awake too?

Jozio, stop talking to yourself.

OK

really? ... well ... ... I wont ask the source of it from you Jose ... but congradulations to the solution seekers of their problem!

This josecitomadera is a clever and comical young man, don't you think LoneStranger. We could use this funny latino in Poland, maybe even Polish TV.

I like his sense of humor, who wants to discuss skin color on Easter Sunday, or any other day?

No-one is a 100% anything.........plus darker skinned people, their genetic make-up is more dominant in any mixing, so more likely to carry through to later generations...not to every off-spring mind you......don't worry about...its Easter!
