Default Skin color variation in family members
Skin color is one of the things that have always interested me. Most people think that skin color is based on race even though it is more than skin deep. There are even families that can have dramatic skin color differences among their family members.

My best friend invited me over to her house and I met her family and I was amazed at how colorful her family is. She is olive skinned with hazel eyes. Her mom is light olive complexioned with grey eyes. Her father is tan skinned with brown eyes. Her brother has a medium brown complexion, her younger brother has a pale complexion with blue eyes, and her sister has a caramel colored skin, which is shades lighter than the "brown" brother.

Variation among families are greater than I always thought. Latinos, arabs, and even african americans have skin color variation amongst their family members. Whites can too but the former are greater. Well known examples of diverse color families would be the Kardashian, Lamas, Knowles families and other families too.

Sorry for the long post. Anyway, have you guys met any families like these?
