Nova Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I noticed something about people with darkee skintones My mom is 55 and has no wrinkles. My father is nearly 60 years old..... No wrinkles. Its seems like people with pale skin get wrinkles earlier because i saw a 30 year old woman and she has wrinkles . It very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxon Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Your sample size is too small, but it is true that dark skinned individuals are more likely to have genes which preserve their skins' youth into old age. I also suspect that fair skin is more vulnerable to ultra violet damage, for obvious reasons, especially for fair skinned people living in places that are much sunnier than their European homelands.

TheGreatFanatic Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I'm confused. Is this thread about race or wrinkles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namely the fact that certain races are genetically more prone to wrinkles and other forms of aging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshleyAshes Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I've never seen a black person use 'Darkee' in this context before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namely the fact that certain races are genetically more prone to wrinkles and other forms of aging. Yes! For instance, those of Klingon heritage are born with ridges/wrinkles, and are pronounced even if the last Klingon ancestor was two generations ago, which really upset B'Elanna Torres in the Star Trek Voyager episode "Lineage," because she detested her ancestry, and didn't want her child to have those ridges. I myself am pale, but I am going to look young forever and never get wrinkles because I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome which also gives me constant joint pain.
