Since there is only one human race but four sub groups, *******, Caucasoid, Mongoloid and Australoid....?

Question

Shouldnt people refer to Breedism instead of Racism ?

Answer 1

you know hat there shouldn't be racism or breed-ism or any other ism for that matter.

Answer 2

I think sleddog gave the best answer so far. Race is an idea used by people to make themselves seem different from other people. There is no real scientific basis for it. What does Wikipedia have to say about it?

Breed: "A breed is a domesticated subspecies or infrasubspecies of an animal."

Race: "The term race distinguishes one population of humans (or non-humans) from another. The most widely used human racial categories are based on visible traits... Conceptions of race, as well as specific racial groupings, vary by culture and over time and are often controversial..."


So while the terms have a similar conotation, the idea is that Breed is a much more defined term. For example, my dog is a shar-pei. She fits into a breed standard which means if I put her in with other shar-pei's they will all have the same characteristics (ear shape, tail position, hair length, ect). That is why mutts are refered to by their Dominate Breed (the one that shows the most) because they don't fit into the exact Standard of one particular breed. So in the case of Humans we are so interbreed that you can't take all Asians, or all Hispanics and define their exact physical triats so that they fit into nice scientific catagories. That is why we use the general term of Race instead of the more exacting term of Breed.

Maybe we should all just mate together until we get everyone to a kind of grey color then there wouldm't be a need to use Breedism or Raceism

Answer 3

Your question is incorrect. There is only one human "species". Race is an inexact non-scientific notion which fails in every respect to distinguish sub-groups of humans. Some black peoples have very fine caucasoid features, like many Ethiopians and Indians. Some white people have thick lips and broad noses. Features such as skin color, jaw shape and size, the length of lower arms and lower legs, represent minor genetic specializations, but do not constitute important enough variation to speak of different "races" or even "sub-species". All humans belong to one species and can interbreed with one another quite easily. Skin color disolves into intermediate hues; jaws and arm and leg bones do the same. Eye color and hair texture do the same.

Race is more a socio-political concept than a scientific one. It is treated like nationality, language, religion, and culture insofar as it is used to distinguish populations. As a concept, it has caused more confusion and suffering than intelligent distinctions between groups of people.

Answer 4

There is no such thing as a human race. There is a human species that like ALL species of plants or animals is divided into sub-species (we call them races). Every creature should look out for ONLY their own kind. Helping creatures that you are in competition with for land and resources is suicidal.

Yes a german sheppard and a poodle are both breeds of dogs but they are not eqaul in size, intelligence, or temperment. the same for chickens and eagles or negroids and caucazoids.

Answer 5

I do think you are what is known in some cicles as a splitter. What you speak of is a division that falls far below eve the subgenus rank. Since there is nothing in zoological taxonomy below subspecies you are talking about what could only be classified as variety or or hybrid and they are invalid.

Answer 6

You may call as you like but all are humans and in due course of time there will be only one race that is HUMAN RACE.

Answer 7

Australoid? What exactly is that? Just another variation on the *******.

Answer 8

If that would make you happy, then yes, you may refer to breedism.

Answer 9

Whoa!

I've read some rubbish today, but this tops the pile

Answer 10

You forgot another one Assholoroid,congratulations your a new sub-species.
