    Ironically, this thread is racist.
    BTW: A mixed race is a more beautiful race. See Brasilia.

      No, that's all subjective. Good-looking people make good-looking children, race doesn't matter. I will never understand this pressure to marry outside of your race.

        Actually, good looking people usually have ugly children. There has to be one average-to-ugly person in the mix that makes the child come out beautiful. I've noticed this.

          As long as people keep their gene pool reasonably mixed up to avoid health problems - check out the situation of Irish travellers and of European monarchies of old - then I don't see why what race your spouse is should be any problem. The sheer neurotic quasi-racism from many quarters is amazing.

            No, because that's a racist notion in itself, though it is politically correct.

                I wonder, is their even a mixed race ? Aren't we all just pure blooded humans ?
                However, for lack of better term, I'll use the word race.
                Race is not disappearing anytime soon. Alarmist think the world is caving in but interracial marriage is only a few percent in America. Most whites, blacks, Hispanics marry within.
                And, many mixed people simply join a specific race or form a new race.
                Blacks
                , have taken in much white blood in America because many of the mixed people simply became black instead of forming a new group. Even a heavily mixed group like
                Hispanics
                they have white, native american, and black input have simply, to a large extent, become another race.
                Currently,
                white America
                is absorbing a lot of Hispanic and Asian blood. I believe m16d0ost mixed Hispanic/white and Asian/white children look white or near white and simply identify as white. They are not forming a new race. And, this will continue unless some kind of Nazi back-lash stops it.

                  There is only one humanoid race currently on this planet - that is Homo Sapiens Sapiens, there is some Neandethal DNA afloat in modern man but it is a VERY small percentage.
                  There ARE different ethnicities or 'ethnics' for short. Different ethnics mixing is a good thing, but it should never be enforced because then what about the different cultures that would be lost.
                  There should be a balance between handing down traditions and working toward greater kindness toward our fellow man be they of a different ethnic or not.
                  I am of mixed ethnic background and just about everyone I know of mixed background has a high IQ, hybrid vigour and all that. But too much interbreeding and we could lose those individual cultures which would be sad too. Balance and love for fellow man is the key here I think.

                    Mixed race people are not more intelligent. Take a look at South America. Europe and East Asia produce the best minds, and the best culture. Mixed race countries are backwaters.

                          Lol, that sounds nice on paper, but race isn't the only barrier. Many others exist and will continue to exist.
                          How about judging people as individuals? A person of any race can be cool, no need to enslave them to what they were born as and can't help.

                                My family is a mini United Nations. I am Caucasian of German, Danish and Irish parentage. My ex is Black, maybe some Caucasian, and touch of Native American. We had 3 kids, 2 boys and 1 girl all of whom are grown up married. My sons married Hispanic ladies of whom one has Chinese about 5 generations back and the other has Apache about 4 generations back. My daughter is with a Caucasian man with no kids planned due to medical issues with meds causing really bad congenital side effects. As a result my grandkids are United Nations. All my kids and my grands are full of energy, high IQs, and very bright. I have also noticed through my teaching experience that children of mixed races seem te be of the same attributes. BTW-We drove the hospital nuts when, on the race line, we put "Human." And refused to change it. However if we put the same down on their school enrollment paperwork we were told that the school nurse would look at them and make a racial determination! This was in the "SouthBay School District in South San Diego County near the border. Mixed? Definitely. Human? Naturally! Better mixed racially? I don't knw about that. That is determined by the individual and family. On the whole average-wise they seem to be brighter and more intelligent as anyone else has the potential to be.

                                      I thing there's a lot to be said about 'mixed races' being 'better'. In the particular case of the asian community in Britain - especially those from the Indian subcontinent, there's an awful prevalence of consanguinous marriage. Inbreeding.
                                      Cousins are often betrothed at birth to consolidate familial wealth, cultural and religious ties. As a consequence, south asian communities have Britain's highest incidence of birth2000 defects and intellectual and physical disability. There's nothing racist implied in these assertions, just cold, hard statistics. Intergenerational inbreeding will genetically impoverish any population of any species.
                                      There's plenty of published reviews on the subject. Some 70% of Pakistan's indigenous population is classified as significantly inbred. Crossbreeding across racial divides, by contrast, introduces 'hybrid vigour', meaning that progeny has much greater health, vitality and wellness outcomes. This is true in both the plant and animal kingdoms. Long live the mongrel!
