All the black skin tone is, is just a repellent against the harmful rays of the African sun.

All the white skin tone is, is just an absorber of heat in the colder regions.

Does it really matter?

As pointed out, black absorbs and white reflects. Who cares? I don't want to bother changing it.

Race does not matter. Those who generlize based on race restrict thei r own lives more than anything else.

I think race is a stupid concept alltogether. I am biracial and so the concept of race can apply conveniently or inconveniently whenever I decide to be white or hispanic.

Don't expect politicians to know shit about science. Well except liberals of course! Somehow I don't think you were talking about them of course.

I think Race needs to be studied more. We need to have a racial discussion in America, we need to stop ignoring the problem.
We are studying it way too much actually.

I don't think theres a single person in the US who doesn't hear about race and race issues at least once a week if not once a day.

So please...



I've never heard of politicians talking about Race, nor have I heard scientist talk anything about race. Yes, the media does talk about it. The media aren't experts.

finally, a smart person.  
 but no i wont date an asian dude. im sorry.

I won't date any of the asians I know because they're all stuck up, little cunts.

If I was to meet a nice, mild mannered asian then I wouldn't think twice about dating him. Same applies to any other race.


shut up, all asians are nice. u just like to make up shit.

Because black people come from a different place, and there's a history behind how they go here, what cultures they came in with, and what they've been doing ever since.

In the end people should truly be judged by the content of thir character rather than by the color of their skin (or ethnic origin, or theor similar external attributes)

Our society is not here yet.
