Ignorant nonsense troll post from the usual suspect. Learn the difference between a linguistic family and ethnicity, race and DNA. There is hardly any mixture of Sub-Saharan ancestry in Arabs - other than Afro-Arab communities which are themselves a mixture of Horn of Africans, West Africans, Sahelians, East Africans etc. and local Arabs and other local and foreign ethnicities.
As for Europeans, most of their DNA derives from the ancestors of Arabs and from the Middle East. As history, human migrations and modern day DNA tests all confirm and my earlier post. Which even @ChineseTiger1986 posts also confirm.
In fact light skin and blue/green etc. eyes are a fairly recent genetic mutations that occurred - you guess it right - in the Arab world.

All instances of a gene mutation that contributes to light skin color in Europeans came from the same chromosome of one person who most likely lived at least 10,000 years ago, according to Penn State College of Medicine researchers.

This is how most Europeans (and most other human beings) looked like skin color wise less than 10.000 years ago.

And you obviously have no clue, there are literally millions of people in KSA alone from "pure" tribal Arab backgrounds from the depths of Najd that you would not be able to distinguish from Southern Europeans at all if wearing Western clothing. Other than at most certain facial features that millions of South Europeans also share.

So once again, Arabs, in particular Saudi Arabians who were never colonized by any Europeans, do not care about pale skin (albeit some will probably prefer it while others will not - a question of personal taste) etc. even though this genetic mutation occurred among our ancestors and is common among us. The "ideal" Arabian beauty ideal is olive skin/brown skin and for men it is a sign of manhood to have olive skin and some color. It is by far, objectively speaking, also the most desired skin color worldwide IMO. Throughout the millennia/centuries famous Arab poets etc. also considered olive skin to be the most desired and beautiful. There is a reason why millions of pale Europeans and others tan to such an extent that skin cancer is becoming a health pandemic.
Personally I find mulatto girls very beautiful and attractive and pale skin the exact opposite. If I had to marry another wife in some alternative universe, I would pick an Afro-Arab woman, Habesha or Dominican/Puerto Rican/Colombian woman (not the millions of Arab, South European etc. ancestry but the mixed ones and more brown/olive skin ones). I don't find blondes particularly attractive either (of course you have individual beautiful women across all races and appearances - obvious thing) but this is all about personal taste after all.
And in any case, this is all irrelevant or at least should be - considering that you can nowadays alter your appearance greatly and that it is not in your control either. Albeit appearance remains important subconsciously to this day and that is likely never going to change - same with personal preference.
And luckily Arabs and Saudi Arabians are quite diverse in appearance so there is something for every taste.
