As a child, I was quite puzzled by the color of the crayon called "flesh" as I had never seen anyone with skin that color.

I have seen people with advanced kidney disease who had yellowish skin. I spent some time in my younger days in Asia & did not see anyone there with yellow skin.

I think all of my family members or friends who are Indians, or Indigenous Americans, consider "redskin" to be as offensive as the "n" word is to a person of African or African American descent.

The only persons I have known with skin of a reddish hue are those who spent a great deal of time in an outdoor activity under a very hot sun & not a lot of clothing, for example, after participating in a Sun Dance, suntanning, farming or any other activities in great heat. I also observed that those same persons appeared to not look reddish in the winter. However, I have heard people say that in previous generations there were those persons from the Southwest who were somewhat reddish brown after a lifetime spent in the desert with little clothing.
