Pasty White Virgins

- Today's video is just for fun. After last week's episode, I figured it would be good to do something light. It's a story about tanning, virginity, and how we basically can find anything attractive so long as it means that person is doing well socially.

Thanks for watching! You're clearly one of the good ones.
Thanks to everyone who asked about our Patreon. I'll put out a full video when I get the time, but for those who want to jump the gun and get on board from the start, here's the link: www.patreon.com/rareearth
It means a huge deal that so many have asked us to start an account. I never thought anyone would watch these videos, let alone support them.
Excuse my language, FUCK YEAH! See you there
Rare Earth your tan game is weak but beard game is pretty strong. Your dad's mustache game is absolutely legendary though.
So I'm sitting here nude watching this show on my carbon fibre laptop, drinking a local craft beer, checking Instagram and I've noticed I'm quite pale for an Australian. Thanks to Rare Earth, I'm ok with that.
"I'm certain nobody will choose this category, so I'm comfortable knowing I won't have to figure out what Don Ho sounds like."
I will be very surprised if someone hasn't _already_ chosen this one.
Cedric the super fan right there. Thumbs up.

Except goths, maybe?

nlabonte What about people into old school burlesque stripping? Oh wait... that's "pasties."

It's weird, brown people want to be lighter, white people want to be darker. We're always striving to find new symbols of status and worth, which is quite telling.
People desire whatever is rare. It's been the case for the entirety of human existence.
@@_____._..--_ yes, slav and you win
Everyone wants what they don't or can't have.
As they say in England............"there is nought queer as folk....." i.e. that is to say there is nothing on Earth as strange as people. People are very very odd.
I guess they all want to be in the middle a balance 😀
watching these videos is like watching the curiosity-filled travel vlog of a friend I have never met. I'm always looking forward to seeing where he is next, and what he's been wondering during his time there. thanks for working on this series :]
In our language we have a saying
"Jwand ke dwa shezuna de, kheta ao khuta"
Literally

That's all there is to it, competition for resources and reproduction. If it wasn't there wouldn't be a single thing alive.
Kamal Azam never thought I'd see another pukhtun in the comments section. Refreshing to see
In any culture that revered pale skin I would be hailed as a god. I'm so white tiki torch ads pop up in my suggestions on Amazon.

I'm so white you can see my heart beating.
Complain to me when you glow under black lights
Too soon, brother too soon. LOL
Awe bless lol x
I'M so white I never have to turn on the lights!
This video's title hit close to home
Same, spent 8 hours playing KSP today.
I have friends.

Haha! Word.
you're hot
Came for the clickbait. Stayed for the thought-provoking content. Well done Rare Earth.
According to google, "when the weather gets warm in the spring, male and female alligators begin looking for mates. After retouching outdated portraits in Photoshop and updating their social media profiles, they bask naked in the sun, and wait."
"You're probably displaying some [signs of status] right now." I didn't know watching RUclips in my pyjamas was a status symbol, but cool.
After he said that he talked about being fat, maybe he was calling you visibly fat and lazy.
Well it means you have the time and luxury to do that
Probably for the millions that do not have access to youtube, I guess. Or that had to return to work.
Oh YES IT'S! Look: you have internet, you have electricity, you have money to buy pajamas and use one type of clothe only for bed, and you have free time to watch this without going outside to fight for your food. You are fuckng rich!!
Well, on a greater scope, it surely is... consider how many can't afford to do that. :v
I like that you always put a philosophical thought in your video, here about how we show ourselves..
Keep up the good work !
(also your burakumin video gave me a good grade for my history class ty)
GAMERS RISE UP!!
Is it strange that I binge watch rare earth multiple times?
Can't help it though, these videos are so good!
Today's status symbol: spending the morning in my pajamas with three computers within reach
Powerful
Only three? ;-)
+Mara K
You get it!
Don't forget your Smartphone and a box of doughnuts! LOL
+Jungle Drums
Nah, not a smartphone. Smartphones are for normies who have those weird things called "friends" (See: _REEEEEEE_ ).
You need some custom hacked-up shit made from a Raspberry Pi.
And it's gotta run some kind of Linux, too. Unless you REAL hardcore and willing to do BSD. Either works, though.
TRUE status-symbol aesthetic means you gotta look like you ain't been outside since Amazon came out.
I can approve of the doughnuts, though. Maybe throw in some Cheetos and/or Doritos, though, just for good measure.
"That's ridiculous, we can't all be that petty"
*_glances over entirety of human race from start to now_*
I live in a western democratic society, and I find pasty white to be most attractive in females :O
O:
I prefer women have the pasty, pink, and pale look which i why i normal only date other gingers.
your wife is a true MVP
Yeah she's the best.
E-Ma wait what does she do
she's the camerawoman.
la .alEksolas. Francesco will be sad to hear he's now being considered my wife.
oh, i was wrong? then who... wait, i'm confused. who are these people.
The sass intensifies
And it is delightful.
"and you're probably thinking we can't ALL be that petty, and yet we are" best line of the video
Is it just me or is Evan getting snarkier the longer he travels?
eustacia03 It's the heat. Getting to his head, the inner demons are approaching.
no but hes getting hotter
its called world weary.. you start to see the world as it truly is.
I did not expect something this hilarious from this channel. Reminds me why I fucking love rare earth so much.
In my case working out side in construction for 20 years earned me a stage four skin cancer diagnosis in2010. Now 2018 still here. Moral of the story is cover up live longer and never try to change that which is natural to you sun tans are skin damage not a fashion statement
So would you say that It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Deathwish?
>opens video from channel i like
>gets directly insulted in the first five seconds
"The lighter the skin, the higher the skies."
I'm a redhead...so might as well be a quadrillionaire.
The perfect delivery of those first few lines was priceless
I had to look up what gamergaters were lol. So what have they got against Evan? He doesn't appear to be a woman, or a gaming journalist lol
I haven't seen any comments by them in previous videos. What did I miss, exactly?
It's a throwaway joke. Don't read too far into it.
@GambitsEnd so you're saying you support sexual harassment?
The joke is that he knew it existed and was parodying videos that targeted them I'm pretty sure. GamerGate wasn't against woman. Just giving you a heads up.
@S Bonel
the events of the gamergate incident also spawned another movement that supports ethical journalism by calling out dishonest reviews, and this movement has absolutely nothing to do with sexual harassment or misogyny.
Tanning-
Preparing your skin with a nice bronze color to attract and impress oncologists.
The sun is a nuclear DNA re-arranger.
@@A_name_is_a_name
I am confused by your response.
It seems you are implying that in texas
you need to risk dying of cancer just to impress ignorant people?
*The sun *IS A DEADLY LASER*
All jokes aside, this video reminded me that we really do live in a society
~2:23 It's really a bit of both; plenty of cultures viewed light skin as favourable due to tans being associated with outdoor labour, but other cultures only view light skin as favourable due to more recent western influence. In Black Americans and Caribbeans, for example (especially the latter), colourism came about based on the better treatment of mixed race people compared to people with more African ancestry/darker skin. In India, meanwhile, dark skin used to be seen as desirable (I'm not sure if there was any specific reason for this, but old Indian texts certainly glorify dark skin), whereas colorism and skin bleaching is a big issue in modern India.
I saw the title and immediately thought “Finally an auto biography”
It's almost like humans instinctively form dominance hierarchies.
So you're saying we should organize our societies along the lines of the lobsters?
Well played.
oh boi
Q lobster jokes
It's almost like everything looks likes nail when a hammer is your only tool.
I love the straight shade being thrown, though I think that's counterintuitive if they wanted the metaphorical tan.
Loved the light-hearted video! The serious videos are amazing, too, of course; I just want to voice that the more playful videos are perfect for the series as well (:
I hope you keep the videos coming. Great channel Hadfield!
Love the witty writing in this episode. Keep up the good work. From 🇺🇸 ✌️ 🇨🇦
Just keep binging just keep binging just keep binging binging binging. As a translucent human this really hit the spot. Please keep doing what you're doing so I can binge watch forever. Thanks for existing, I know it wasn't your choice but I'm grateful anyway.
"... and yet, we are." Ah yes, one of the great "joys" of self discovery (natch, it's rarely a joy in the actual moment of discovery :P) is just how petty, crazy, weird, jerkish, fooled, and hoist on our own petard we are and can be, no matter how aware and "rational" we think we are. :) And even more "amusing" is how often we can discover that.... At least once we get over that shock, we've got new insights and new freedom to actually be as we'd like to be. Thanks Evan, this is a great channel, love the spotlight you shine to challenge my automatic, already knowing.
This might actually be one of the most interesting videos I have seen from Rare Earth so far. I like the more comparative style rather than just focusing on the location they are at.
"But it is about virgins; pale ones"
Well you threw that at me like a brick didn't you?
Damn, you guys are good. Interesting and unusual content, well presented. You may be a small team, but you are putting out pro quality work.
You have got a talent my friend...and you found it with this channel.
This is a great video, Evan! And I really appreciate your deadpan self-deprecating sense of humor. What you were talking about as status symbols is spot on - there's a book called SPENT: Sex, Evolution and Consumer Behavior, which talks about exactly how these fitness indicators evolved and how they've become largely irrelevant (though still important) in our current world. Definitely recommend checking it out!
Whatever your political views, no matter how obnoxious they may be sometimes - you really have some of the most amazing videos I've ever seen. Beautiful commentary and cinematography, and incredibly captivating. Never stop, you beautiful human being.
The only educational channel on RUclips that knows how to truly bring the sassy attitude. Rare Earth rocks!!
i'm in buenos aires as a tourist right now and i've been thinking a lot about how people perceive me here and this video was really enlightening. god i love this channel so much
This was a plot-point in the 1994 film Rapa Nui. When I first saw the movie as a young teenager, I presumed the entire movie was conjecture. But since then, I went and looked it up. While they didn't get everything quite right for plot and time reasons, it really surprised me how much of the film turned out to be evidence based. Easter Island is quite the curiosity, isolated as it is.
Most underrated channel on yt. thank you and keep it up
I click on the god damn notification and am instantly hit with quality content. You sir, are a god.
Goddamn weebs
JJAB91 what?
I'm a weeb so I'm allowed o make fun of other weebs
is this one of the rare pepes?
Great video as always.
One day, I hope to see the incredible places that you've shown us in this series -- & maybe even gain some of the insight that you have as well.
Wow.... I should have known it was just a matter of time before your channel went off the rails.... doggone it...
Interesting way to start the video. Pretty funny, never thought a video like this would come out if this channel. Till the facts started dropping that is.
I've seen some gorgeous pale skinned people. Dark and light skin as well as in betweens can look so gorgeous.
Rare earth is changing my mindset day by day
Being a Diabetic, and of Irish decent, I'm pasty white and have to take Vitamin B12 pills, 2000 mg a day, doctors orders after my heart attack in November.
So... extra V?
Type 1 or type 2? Also that's awful! Was the heart attack attributed due to your diabetes?
Type 2, fourth generation on both sides of family. Heart attacks are my family, I'm 65 going on 66, my father died at 50, my great grand father on my father's side died at 51, my mother's father died at 81 about 5 years after losing a leg. I've got great medical help here in Canada.
Mine really weren't, they came to England as Norman invaders in 1066, then invade Ireland during Elizabeth I reign in the 1600s and then on e to Canada in the 1840s. I've even found a distant relative in Egypt with the name of el Damery, oh those Crusaders.
The best medical care is when you take care of yourself and avoid problems through diet and self-control.
- a Canadian green-carding it here in the U.S. these past 15 years (and not missing that Cdn medical coverage)
“We can’t all be that petty, and yet we are” lol so true, good video
As a fat white woman, I live in the wrong time or place.
Are you telling me as a "tan" skin brown guy, I'd be considered a multi-millionaire in Canada.
What would a black guy be considered - a billionaire ??
You've got to find that balance point before the racism kicks in...
I think naturally untanned people envy people who are tanned, and vice versa. I would sure like the bronze of a greek or turk f.ex.
@@Brakvash and I'm proud to be white. Wait a minute, am I allowed to...
Well, if your natrually tan or brown it's not impressive. That's like a fat chic with big tits or skinny guy with abs, it doesn't count.
What about someone with non opaque skin?
Your end credits always amuse me. :)
im so honoured to have a video made for me although i prefer the term " whiter than wonderbread "
10 out of 10 as always. Patreon activated.
Am I weird for thinking paleness is beautiful on white people? And the opposite goes for black people. Dark skinned black people, not just average dark, but so dark their skin has lost almost all brownness, especially on the women, is beautiful. I don't like tans and bronzing and bleaching and all that fakery. My dream husband always had long, brown or black hair, skin as pale as mine (I've often been compared to a porcelain doll, and I actually glow a little under a black light. [Insert semen joke here]), and bright blue/green eyes. Weight between 150 and 250, depending on height, an aspect I don't care about at all. Ten years ago I was hellbent on marrying a man only a few inches taller than me, and I was an average height woman, at 5'4.5“ tall, (The "was" is a long story. Sneaky genetic disease that waits til adulthood to become a major ordeal.) but he fit that description, and I thought, incorrectly, we were very compatible, but friendship and romance show you different faces of a person. I am highly monogamist, and have a natural tendency I can only call "blinders" where, once I'm in a relationship, other men are just there. I don't notice if they're attractive or would make good partners. But he wanted to be swingers! I couldn't abide this. I loved him dearly, but I couldn't give him what he wanted, so I let him go, after two whole years of staving it off, with a FWB relationship thereafter, whenever I was single. (he was safe, the only setup of this kind I ever had, and my life, especially from 2013 to him in 2019, my entire teenhood, was comedically ridiculous in how many bad things can happen to one girl, largely because she was born to bad parents in a shithole culture).
I still eventually got my wish, a pale, blue eyed husband. It's not a race thing. I've been with a black guy too, even though he was the opposite of the stereotype. I left him because he was a fitness guy, and I have severe health problems that would only hold him back. My husband has blond hair, but it's a dark blond. Good enough. Easily the most attractive man I've been with, but that pales in comparison to his strong moral fiber, patience of a Buddhist monk, hopeless romantic under a rough and tough look and public persona (every woman wants this.), great sense of humor (every woman also likes this, though many don't get his brand of humor, whereas I do, and turn it into a game where I play back), extraordinary guitar talent (being extremely skilled and passionate about something has always been a relationship requirement to me, romantically and otherwise. Untalented people are boring.) and his "high standards for myself, live and let live to others" worldview. He shares my monogamist view, and we have the same relationship ideals. I once asked him if he was made in a lab just for me. He pointed out that I'm six months younger, and if anyone was made for anyone, it'd be me for him. I love my pale, "Metalhead Legolas" looking husband, who wishes he'd have waited til marriage, and I hate that his job tans him a little (he's a tanker driver, so his left side often tans in summer) because I love the natural him.
I'm a pregnancy risk (part of why I've lost height, I have a genetic illness), but I'm hoping that I can use artificial womb tech or a surrogate to make our corpse-complected baby, and CRISPR to ensure my degenerative genetic disease is not passed down, as, naturally, there is a 50/50 shot. It's autosomal dominant. No, I'm not a eugenicist, but I wouldn't wish this disease on my worst enemy (well, I can think of a handful of people who could use the humility it brings, but, that aside), it'd be my worst nightmare that my baby suffers from this, and there's nothing I can do.
Sorry, tl;dr, I know. I can't write a brief anything to save my life. Word limits were the bane of my existence in uni.
Basically, I'm a shockingly pale woman, and find paleness in white people to be far more attractive than the Donald Trump look, or any other form of tanning. Probably because I'm majority Scottish and Irish in heritage.
initially thought this was going to be a pseudo-rant about trolls in the comments then i felt guilty after the video for thinking you'd stoop to that level. i'd never knew about the whole 'sending virgins to caves' thing, pretty cool.
The weight thing, while less extreme then in Hawaii, but until recently in the grand scheme of European history, used to be fat = desirable as well. It meant you had access to reliable sources of food and didn't have to exercise. But then it flipped, just like tanning. Now being fat means you spend so much time working an office job you can't find the time to go to the gym. And you can't afford healthy food, and have to subside on takeout.
Geat episode. As per the title, I think it's 'clickbait done right'. Attention grabbing without being annoying.
"There are many ways to display status... even when alone." Currently shaving while watching this.
What You're shaving You're balls 😸
Thank you for this video. Recently I moved to Malta and while some people are having darker tan already, I am still pure snow - I am too terrible at tanning and handle Sun quite poorly.
That thumbnail is gold.
love the creative end credit, lol
I don't know about Canada or the rest of the US, but in the American central gulf coast it means you are either blue collar middle or lower middle class. It means you are a construction worker, plumber, etc. A tan means hard work ethic, which is something we admire.
you are a gem. You just gave me new perspective on some stuff.
It's fascinating because in Europe, in the past light skin meant you didn't have to farm or work at all and could stay out of the sun, now a tan is a symbol of being able to go and vacation at the beach or outside instead of staying in doors and working all day. XD
Reminds me or weight, where once plump was beautiful when food was harder to come by and eating too much was a symbol of wealth - now since food is cheap, being skinny is the beauty standard because you have to have the time and money to eat healthy and work out.
Whatever is harder to attain and demands wealth and status is what is considered most attractive for the time. ^^
Witty and knowledgeable with beautiful scenes from the dedicated work of edit. Thanks!
I love your end credits.
Love the closing titles.
The Human Condition, is endlessly fascinating.
wow like always, you propose ideas which blows my mind! And inspires me to research more. For example i didn't realise that the obsession of my fellow asian counterparts born & raised in asia, may have existed well before western influences. And that makes sense - the poorer workers in outdoor labour type jobs would dream of being one of the rich & well connected upper class who would be indoors mostly and therefore paler.
"... I expect you're actually doing a number of them right now" and I'm sat here combing my fucking beard. Mortifying.
Just look at the response the newly released game Kingdom Come got from some American gaming websites and you can see why gamergate was a thing. That said, its not like journalism in other fields is any better. Its all clickbait.
Prefer pale skin, like people in the past did.
Nicol Bolas not all people
Whatever, not going to ruin my skin to look brownish.
Nicol Bolas yeah it's not a smart thing to do
Prefer pale skin, because tan gives you cancer
Tan (usually) only gives you cancer if you're pale to begin with.
Awesome video! This is one of my favorites.
Yes...your video hit the nail on the head!...👍..
Different cultures treasure/worship different stuff...
Thanks for sharing
First video of yours I've ever had not fully agreed with. But still great video!
Another great insightful vid. Keep it up guys
An amazing video brother keep up the great work
lol I don't put any effort into projecting my status day-to-day, at least not consciously. I always knew I've been doing something wrong...
"We're willing to spend a lot of money to pretend we have a lot of money"
How do you even come up with these?
This series has made me think more than many of the courses I had in college
You know, I’m so used to the notion of _“Pasty white virgin”_ being associated with males, I forgot that historically it was mainly women who society focused their attention on (generally speaking) when it came to virginity. I mean there are many that focus on males being virgins, but they’re mainly religious in focus; whereas with women it’s mainly about marriage, with some exceptions pertaining to religion of course. Made me realize that society sure does focus a lot on _“Purity”,_ in the sense that women often had to be virgins, _for some reason._
Just over 100 years ago a pale skin it was considered to a sign of wealth and status.
Having a tan or being fat is disgusting. Some cultures got it right. Others not so much. Looks like a beautiful location, nice camerawork too. I'll have to watch more of your videos.
Yeah, thanks for calling everyone who leaves his house from time to time disgusting. Not everybody can be a leech and stay inside 24/7.
I display my pretend status by playing high rarity shiny children's trading cards when I could easily play more affordable common copies. Gotta have my blinged out deck or I'd look like a third rate duelist with a 4th rate deck.
I've never liked tanning, and never done it. I cut my own hair, with a shaver. My beard is uncut. I can't imagine the void inside of a person that wants to tan.
Thinking is an art, It can be taught !
You were great on the Trailer Park Boys podcash. What does it say about me, I’m subscribed to your channel and the trailer park boys.
You are not the only one, being a fair haired Scot I also have a hard time to get a healthy glow. Most of the time I go a bright pink and then back to pale. So I can sympathise with you.
I'm also terrible at tanning. and no, not because i dont have time to sunbathe. I'm either paper white or cherry red. 15 minutes in a field in new england on a pleasant spring morning... and I'll be peeling for 3 days. and nope, i wont burn once and then tan. i'll just burn again and again and again.
I dislike tanned skin.
And I hate tanning culture.
I could get tanned brown but I don't care so I won't. Because it is stupid.
Ppl will forever want what they do not have. I'm Armenian, I have Mediterranean features, by skin bronzes up like a Greek statue during just the first day of summer. I have never, never, ever found tanning as a desirable thing. Actually, I prefer how light I got during the winter months as a kid. Today, my skin has seen too much sun to ever get that back. :(
The pettiness of humanity never ceases to amaze me.
"Pasty White Virgins" Ooh! A video about me! How exciting.
I work with a few (young) Korean ladies in the middle east.
They are obsessed to avoiding exposure to the sun for fear of darkening their skin. Apparently in Korean it symbolises status; dark skin implies poverty and outdoor manual labour.
Tanning is dumb. It’s bad for your skin. And it’s so temporary it’s not worth it
