Ummmm kind of off topic, but lighter skin isn't necessarily European based. In Asia (China and Japan, anyway), light skin has long been associated with upper class privilege, maybe even longer than in Europe. Like European culture (at least European culture before Coco Chanel made it cool to be darker), having light skin means that one doesn't work outside and thus, isn't tanned. I'm just a little tired to hear people say that it is based out of Europe.
