I think mixed people are so beautiful and unique. How could some people have a problem with them? The whole concept of preserving your race or ethnic group, I don't see many European countries looking pure, they all look mixed. Even in Scandinavia they have some dark haired people with dark eyes.

I'm mixed. :)

I agree. I wish I was mixed.


-- Posted by the raven at 7:24 pm on Aug. 27, 2008

What exactly are you counting as mixed, in this?
I'm mixed...but nobody believes me when I tell them that because I'm not mixed with black and white. Go figure.

I wish i was mixed. Every freaking mixed person comes out with nice eyes. Lol, that's the only reason i wish i was mixed, to have nice eyes.

ah! me too.

Differences in phenotype originate from climate adaption.

Essentially, we are all mixed as a result of human migration. We are just too deluded to view it as such.


-- Posted by Anonymous at 7:25 pm on Aug. 27, 2008

Mixed, meaning you have different racial mixes.


-- Posted by miNx at 7:28 pm on Aug. 27, 2008

im mixed, but its kind of confusing, Im not that asian (especially phisically) to be asian, and Im certainly not african american ( since im purely asian by culture etc.),

but yeah I do love the attention, lols, not that I want it.

but being different here in asia sometimes is kinda hard,especially when I was in elem. teasing etc. very depressing.. but I got over it ( abit) . Im in college now.

Yeah its kkinda kewl, but not that kewl I guess, if your around feeble minds.


-- Posted by whoareyou at 7:28 pm on Aug. 27, 2008

I think anon means recent generation and not-so-subtle differences in skin color people. Like me.

People fear mixing their race because they're afraid of loss. They're comfortable with their own race, but they're afraid of change because change might bring loss in tradition, culture, or morals.

Shoot I could  careless its not like my race gonna some how disappear when it comes to international relationship, My race got some strong genetic traits mixed or not they'll still be around, so let people do what they wanna


-- Posted by runthespread at 2:00 pm on Aug. 28, 2008

Mixed is great, especially if it's a big difference. French/German for example isn't as great of a mix, no offense. Asian/White is good. Mixing is fine but I think it's hard if you're part of an ethnicity that's dying out, like Hawaiian.

And this is good? They are dying out. You race mixing people are KILLING races. Genocide anyone?

You can't make a new race...


-- Posted by Keile at 9:36 pm on Aug. 29, 2008

Mixed people have an amalgamation of different features.

You can't make a new race...

If I remember CORRECTLY, which I'm sure I do, in one of your articles (please don't make ask me to find which one. i'm just hopin' you don't conveniently forget) when putting down 'the facts' on the different varieties of blacks, you commented on somalians and ethiopians being hybridized with caucasoids.

   Those are entire nations with a history of mixed race. Mexicans. For all you know the races we know today are hybrids of others long forgotten. Some of those caucosoid features you have (such as those pretty eyes you're so proud of) could have easily come from different places a loong loooong time ago. I'm not sayin' you really have to accept that it's happened (what proof do I have?) but atleast accept that I can. Race and the way we view it can change just like culture. maybe a little longer for homogenuity, but you'll be seeing alot more mixed people as the years past. It seems inevitable to me, especially considered that so far I haven't ever heard of inter"racial" breeding related deaths or reversion back to monkeys (assuming you buy into that evolution jazz, according to which, whether we choose to accept it or not, we're making progress regardless).


-- Posted by kidd rune at 10:11 pm on Aug. 29, 2008

Creating a new race takes YEARS of evolution. Mixing a Caucasian and a Negro doesn't make another race, it makes you Biracial. TWO Races.


My eyes are from one individual in the Black Sea region (or so they say). Seeing as all eye colors that aren't brown are PURELY Nordic traits, it wouldn't be wise to claim them from another race.

My genetic variation is about 0.025% different than the average Lapp, and it's 0.133% from the Nigerian.

Now, how many Sami people have light blue eyes that grayen by age and blond hair that darkens by age? None (Without mixing).

Seeing as the Lapps are the closest non-Caucasoid peoples to my race, most unique things I have to them are unique to all races.


And I don't think we came from monkeys, but a common ancestor.

If you don't believe in EVOLUTION, the change over time, you are horribly lost. The THEORY OF EVOLUTION is different though.

And it doesn't matter what you "think".

Your "thinking" doesn't classify as anything more than conjecture.

Biracial is a label. Race is a concept. And just a few moments ago, you hardly recognized biracial as a label. You simply mixed race (with black) as simply black and ignored biracial as a label. Enough of your selective ignorance.


-- Posted by kidd rune at 10:24 pm on Aug. 29, 2008

Biracial is a label. Race is a concept.
Biracial indicates that you are composed of two races out of the 5 races of humanity. Race indicates one of those 5 divisions of our species according to genetic makeup.



And just a few moments ago, you hardly recognized biracial as a label.
No, I didn't. The one drop rule indicates that a biracial person of negro and Caucasian descent is INDICATED AS NEGRO. If two whites naturally made a baby that was, somehow, a negro, they wouldn't be Caucasians. They would possess negro genes which would, in turn, label them as negro by the one-drop rule.



You simply mixed race (with black) as simply black and ignored biracial as a label. Enough of your selective ignorance.
I didn't make the one drop rule dipshit, I just see that it exists here. Two whites can't make a negro baby. It's IMPOSSIBLE. If they possessed negro genes, they would be considered Negroes BY THE ONE DROP RULE, but Biracial by genetic makeup. This I never claimed as false.


-- Posted by The Artful Dodger at 10:27 pm on Aug. 29, 2008

So then have you considered that the one drop rule isn't a good rule to apply, especially when going into the more scientific/physical aspect of "race"?

The one drop rule claims that someone can't be white if they have "one drop" of Negro blood. Without negro blood, a Negro child CAN NOT be created.

That is all I claimed.

No one asked about the one-drop rule. So one could have only assumed that its what you subscribed to. be more clear next time.
