Why do some Europeans not like dark skin?

Question:Isn't skin just a trait? There is nothing inherently evil or distasteful about a color and genes that go with it? If anyone has some insights, it would help to understand why there is racism beyond logic, good sense, and beyond the compassionate view of mankind?

xenophobia and the preservation of the gene pool. It is a fact.

I think it has to do with cleanliness.

Whats the question? Why There is racism? A specific group, or in general? More info please.

yes now a days they are liking because,most of the Europeans are gays and lesbians.now they need any colour in their society. thanks ,it is not a joke it is true.only coloured people can reduce their numbers of in between human. thanks.

Its the cultural differences associated with the colour and not the colour itself.Sometimes it is the stark difference between the pale body and the dark one,the facial differences also bother people.We hate too much difference, we fear it often enough.

You are asking a question about a stereotype on a stereotype. To say that Europeans do not like dark skin is a racial stereotype that you treat as true. I have European background, and my nieces and nephew are black. They are the sun, moon and stars to me.
Your question makes no sense.

Here is some hope for you.....the white race will dissapear in the next few centuries....chocolate is the futur...just statistics....thats all...!!!!!!!
