One of the hardest things to tell about someone online is what race they are.

 

When I met Mike Windu I thought he was black. Untill one day he tells me he's asian. :p

 

And please, don't be offended by anything. :indif:

 

*yoda means other, please explain*

Speaking of which, I'm Spanish and technically not white or South American, so I don't exist according to you. :p

I'm white, (blond with blue eyes if you wan't to know) but when filling in forms I refuse to put anything as I see myself (and everyone else) as a person. I really hate forms that say:

 

In order to determin if ethnic minoritys are being treated fairly we need to know your ethnic backround"

 

Its is just so hypocritical, I always put "other" and then write human.

There are offspring of Native Americans that live all over the world, own web sites, and rob banks. They maybe don't do chants around a bonfire, but they've got some Native american in their blood. That doesn't mean they can't do anything.

And no, by Native Americans he means Native Americans. Indians are from Asia, in that country called "India" (in-DEE-uh). Don't try to tell me that you haven't learnt the difference in history class.

i'm the 200m hurdles !!!!

 

Aw cmon IG... ... I know you have an other category but you shouldve at least put in "european/latin-european/slavic/anglo-saxon" , all our UK posters are missin out, as are the European ppl, not to mention Astro ! :( Plus, "black" is awfully vague. You should have listed "african american" and "african" separately ... and 'south american' isn't even a race as you should very well know ! (you shouldve listed it as hispanic/latino/latin american, and then you still miss the indigenous races of this continent) Asian does qualify as a race. To try define race is a difficult thing. Sometimes race can be described according to appearance, geography, but often also to political and religious factors....

 

bah ! they obviously dont homeschool geography or social sciences :(

 

storms out :(:p

White.

 

The "races" are so mixed into each other, and the genetical differences are so small, that the entire "race" term is quite wrong.

 

Perhaps we should sort blondes and brunettes into two seperate races? After all, there are genetical differences.

 

As far as I'm concerned, there's only one human race.
