It would be odd if people all over the world were predisposed to dislike a skin color. Why would they?

It would be odd, but I find it odd already when the blacks in the US are biased against blacks. There is still a possibility that such predisposition exists (not necessarily towards skin color, it may as well be towards facial features), as a random result of evolution. I am really interested to see the results of the test conducted in Africa.
