Why does the skin on male genitals darken?

1.25K views

I was in the shower this weekend with my son (aged 4) after swimming and he awkwardly asked me why mine is darker (than my skin). I had no answer for him. So can anyone answer this for my son who is actually 4.

I’ve always wondered why my skin is darker. I wash it a lot with tons of soap, shower gel and it gets more attention than any other part of my body. And I have a healthy regiment of applying moisturizer to it almost on a daily basis. It’s 99.44% pure white cream.
