I wanted to raise this question. Because all the people when refer to european they mean all the people from Purtugal to Moscow Russia which I think need modification after some recent archealogical and genetic findings in Eastern Europe especially in Russia.

Genetics has shown that most of east european men (from poland upto russia) carry R1a1-M17 haplogroup at very high rate(upto 50% on average). The same gene R1a1-M17 is also found in the men of the Eastern Afghanistan and Pakistan equally at the same rate( 50%on average).
On the otherside the archaelogical finding in Russia and Ukrain exhibit the war like culuter (horse culture) which is even today prevalent especially in Afghanistan.

I think the Eastern european MAN is a recent arriver (may be few thousand years ago) than the western European MAN.
I think this may explain why Russians think entirely different from Britishers or Americans since they have nothing in common.
What is your point of view.

I noticed when i went to Pakistan that Muslim men are very affectionate with each other. Holding hands and kissing in the street, but no public affection with women. A very different culture.

Take a look at Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos.
I sometimes are perplexed when I see them. Especially between Asian males and black females. Asian guys look so wimpy for the most part.

I believe that there are three kinds of black people
-Those who seek integration (about 10-20%)
-Those who seek freedom (about 5-10%)
-Those who think that integration and freedom are the same thing (about 75- 85%)
Which type of black person are you, and why? And if you are not black, which kind of black person do you think we should be and why? I, for one, am the one who wants freedom (“...go back to Africa!” Yea, I’ve herd that before.) and I don’t see why that makes me an “angry black man” or someone who has got a chip on his shoulder. “Well, why is your Avatar call Black Rage?” Go look up “rage.” It doesn’t only refer to a violent anger. Although it could... but I digress.

Does freedom equal integration? Does being an American make us free? Am I wrong to want to continue the dream? Not the dream of Dr. King but the dream of Kunta Kente: For those who don’t know, Kunta Kente was the Great Ancestor of Alex Halley. The first of his family tree to be brought to this continent called America. He wasn’t an immigrant; our ancestors were not immigrants (“You blacks sold yourselves...” Yea, I herd that one too.) When we watched Roots, Kunta was the one that represented our unknown family tree. He had dreams of freedom and not integration. All of our freedom fighters like Nat Turner or Gabriel Prosser and Jim Brown wanted freedom for us. But now, all we can do is vote the Democratic ticket. This doesn’t mean that I hate white people. But there are some of them that will take this personal and start saying stuff like “Well, what if we stop giving your people jobs, what would you do then?” And that statement alone proves that there is no true “equality” in integration. It’s just equality getting a job at a business that you or your people don’t control. Equality in getting a job in a government that neither you nor your people control and if you don’t play along then you will be out of a job. That is not equality. “What about Condoleezza Rice?” ....I just thought I’d throw that one in : )

When we try and be equal in someone else’s society, That society sets the standards that we must become equal too. I respectfully suggest that this is not what I want. This is black people forever trying to play catchup in a country that is deliberately trying to leave us behind. Those black people who wish to be seen as equal... white people will never see the black people in America as equal until we are free and doing for our own people. They may see Ophra as equal. They may see Bill Cosby or Condoleezza Rice or Colon Powell as equal but the masses of Black people... I don’t think so. So I believe in Freedom. What say you?

I am white and I think the word is offensive. I don't like for anyone to be considered a "minority" We're all people and I think it's ashame to call someone that. There are just as many if not more african americans in this country and I see hispanics everywhere. I think society should stop using this word. If I were a person of color, I would find it offensive to be called that. I also don't like how everything has to be black and white. People are people. We all evolve from adam and eve. That's my opinion. Just seeing what you guys think.

so that when you ask a question that is vastly similar to others that have already been asked and resolved, rather than just listing these, the asker MUST review them and either choose a new 'best answer' or rewrite the question so that it is not so dang similar?

If you do look fat in something do you really think that we are going to say "Oh yeah the seams are about to burst" And do you really want to know? It just seems like a conflict waiting to happen.

Is group identity just a way to validate ourselves, when our only contribution is identifying with said group? Is it just a way for the majority to feed off of the achievements of a contributing minority. Does this apply to all groups: family, nation, racial, ethnic, political? Or does it apply to some and not others, or does it never apply?

Relies on being white....being white inables you to not have a high gpa and still get the job due to your appearance (fine chic) and english lauguage. White people get along with other whites because that is who they sit with during school lunch hours. They want to work and partie after work, so they want to partie with "there buddies" which is always white. White people does get a free ride in USA, because they don't present any negative qualities as seen by other whites, this is an inbreed social phenomina. A dumb white person will get a job over a perfect ace who happens to be a different color. This only applies to jobs that are social in nature like management and non-scientific type careers like sales, advertising, marketing, and business. That is why you see so many dumb whites going in these fields, they are great at bullshitting and smiling in your face, and back stabbing you as you turn the other way.
