In all of your remarks regarding this topic, I just want to puke at the ignorance of the entire nation on "race". Biologically/scientifically speaking there is absolutely no such thing. Infact, I think this word and concept should be banned and replaced with culture or ethnicity. People in India, South America, China, Africa, and the Middleeast all have darker skin because it's hot in those places and melanin, a brown pigment that covers skin, is needed to protect people from the sun, otherwise everyone would die off from skin cancer or burn. Same with hair a thicker hair and darker color are needed to protect the cranial area. Therefore, the healtheir, darker skintone is a dominant gene, like not being color blind is a dominant gene because it's needed for survivial. Most darker people in america have the same culture because we have been limited to only those with a dominat gene, due to slavery or hatred of the amt of melanin you produce. It's virtually impossible for s/o to be pure
