haha i remember those -leah-. and "flesh" coloured tights, foundation etc.
when i was studying photography i remember my teacher made a point of saying "and remember using the grey card for skin exposure only works for average toned white people" so i can totally understand the question.
seems ppl are very sensitive about this, with good reason i'm sure but probably preaching to the converted. i wonder what colour i am. not quite brown. not yellow. off-white? ooh but maybe that's defining my identity in terms of whiteness, which would be all wrong, hmm beige? beige sounds like flatpack swedish furniture. olive? seems a bit green and bitter. damn i guess that's why there is an "other" box on forms.
