00:00Why the Japanese are yellow?
00:02The subject is tense, but I'm going to finish this debate.
00:04The origin of the stereotype is from the 18th century.
00:06European scientists, like Johann Friedrich Blumenbach,
00:09divided humanity into categories based on the criteria of physics.
00:12The Asian people were associated with the yellow color,
00:14a classification arbitrarily and racist,
00:16which has no scientific foundation.
00:18Then, the Japanese have a large diversity of the skin.
00:20In the north of Japan, like Hokkaido,
00:22where the climate is more cold,
00:23the skin tends to be more clear.
00:25In the south, like Okinawa,
00:26where the sun is more strong,
00:28the skin tends to be more soft.
00:29It's like everywhere in the world,
00:31the genetics and the environment play a key role.
00:33There is also the culture of the peau clear.
00:35In Japan, having the peau clear is often associated
00:37to beauty and purity.
00:38That's why a lot of Japanese use
00:40food products to clean their peau.
00:41But it doesn't mean that they all have the same color.
00:43The diversity, she, is quite real.
00:45Which concludes that the color of the peau is complex.
00:48The color of the peau depends on many factors,
00:49the genetics, the exposure to the sun,
00:51and even the skin of the peau.
00:52For example, the Ainu,
00:53a indigenous indigenous people from the north of Japan,
00:55have often traits and different from the Japanese.
00:58The Ainu, they are distinct from their facial hair
01:00more abundant and their hair often more clear,
01:02with traits more close to those of the Caucasian population.
01:05These characteristics reflect their distinct origins
01:07and their unique history in Japan.
01:08So the color of the peau is yellow,
01:10it's a stereotype to deconstruct.
01:11It's not only faux, but also redacted.
01:13It ignores the richness and diversity
01:14of the Asian population.
01:16And in fact, guys,
01:17the beauty is in the variety,
01:18not in the cases.
01:19So, tell me in the comments what you think,
01:21and like if you want more videos
01:22Démêlez le vrai du faux.
