This is not what OP asked though. They didn’t title this post “what is it like to live with a woman of [insert culture] background?”. They asked about dark skin. It could be someone from any culture.
I support you supporting curiosity. If OP is asking in good faith, they deserve not to get torn apart.
That said, “racism” doesn’t only describe explicit disparagement of one race by another. Racism can also be a feature of language, systems, communities, etc.

Yeah, OP phrased their question poorly, but them trying to learn more isn’t racist. Racism requires disparaging the other race.

I’d say it’s racist to believe dark skin affects one’s personality
