If there were for whatever reason different population types stopped interbreeding ( not races) . For example if the ugly only breeds with the ugly and the beautiful only breeds with the beautiful.

My question is a serious one, as I have an interest in the origin of tribes, races and the differences between the races.

I have wondered for a long time as to why caucasians have so many different varieties of look and shapes etc.

Is it due to the more insular nature of black and Asian culture?

I know Asian and Black people intermix with other races today, but in times gone by, there wasnt as much mixing?

Tribes in Europe I assume had a lot of raping and pillaging and mixing, therefore creating all the variety?

I am not interested in any wise-cracks, only serious answers

In a 1970’s sociology textbook we have at our house, the author wrote that Caucasians developed tall noses that would warm frigid air before it entered the lungs, Asians developed narrow eyes and high cheekbones that would protect against flying sand and the glare of the sun from the snow, Africans developed wide lips and noses because (I forget why), etc. Are these views still accepted in the scientific community today?

If not, how did the features that characterize the various races develop? For example, why do most sub-saharan Africans have very curly hair while most of the rest of the world has relatively straighter hair? Why do blue eyes and blond hair occur mostly in Caucasian populations?

No racist or offensive remarks, please… just scientific discussion! Thanks!

Whites can have blonde, brown, red, and black hair, with differing nose shapes, different eye shapes and other facial features. Different head shapes.

African-Americans have homogeneous hair and eye color with similar facial features, similar nose and mouth shape, and similar head shape.

Asians too have have homogeneous hair and eye color with similar facial features, similar nose and mouth, and eye shapes, and similar head shape.

Why are whites more diverse?

Are human beings the new dinosaurs? Will we be studied in the far distant future, by other intelligent creatures, as another failed life form?

I've read that humans can be classified into three major races:caucasoid,******* and mongoloid.Where do indians and arabs come under since their features do not really resemble any of these groups?
