[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m very fair skinned, freckled and of Irish heritage. DH is olive complexioned with Native American ancestry. We had so many fun conversations while expecting DC - most particularly about what skin color our baby might have. It became a family discussion point and then when she was born, an ongoing debate - which parent does DC most resemble?

We now have 3DC and only our youngest is as almost as fair skinned as I am. We are a rainbow of colors and we are Caucasian. Oldest has has a perpetually sun tanned look with darker hair, middle has auburn hair and pink tone and freckles and youngest has peaches and cream with nearly white blond hair.[/quote]

Okay, so dreamily wondering about skin color and whether your child will have your green eyes and his tan skin is not the same at all as hoping that your child does NOT have Negroid features because their life will be easier, they will fit into Western standards of beauty and you have internalized self-hate.
