For Example: Who look better than who, or who can kick who's ***? I mean if you're going to ask questions regarding a sensitive subject, like race, should'nt the questions be worthwhile?

One could just as easily ask...why do people ask questions that are pointless? I'm not trying to be mean, but think about what you just asked. Who decides what is a worthwhile question? You? Me? Sometimes people ask questions that come from ignorance, racism, or just stupidity. There is no universal law that says questions have to be worthwhile, politically correct, or smart. Plus, you have to look at the asker of the question as well...a good many of the answerers here are (unfortunately) just kids who have little to no life experience, yet want to act like they do...and it's not hard to tell. Sometimes they will just ask inflammatory questions on purpose, just to get a given response.
I wouldn't worry so much about what others are doing...it they are idiots, they'll go away eventually.

Good question....
you know..., asking questions about other races is not always racist.i'm a black african male and if someone asks me,for example,why are black people black and white people white?...i would know what he means by the question itsd nothing racist but its just out of curiousity.......but if someone asks me ......DAMN.....WHY ARE YOU BLACK?!....then thats obviously is racist?.............you got my point.
Also if people never ask question about other races then ,believe me, the world would sound very dull....people need to know about each other and the differences between their cultures..... yes, true all the people are the same when it comes to the human nature,soul,red blood colour or so call it whatever!.........but not all the people act the same in some mattters...it was and will always be like that...people in africa,for example,live different lifestyles from the people in europe..
but when we come to the pointless question, there were some ,like for example .......is zidane a muslim,is he an arab?......even if he is an "ALIEN" would this change the fact that he was a great soccer player...?!
Someone would find people(women mainly) in one race more attractive than the other....should i find that racist...ofcourse not!..but if someone said women in a certain race are and will always be ugly.....then that surely and obviously is something racist to say..!
hope i helped you...!
Peace.....

Still today I didn't get the whole concept of racism. How can you say one race is better than the other. We are all humans and each human has his own individuality and talent. I think the whole racism thing is just based on the concept of looks which is totally pointless. Just looking good means nothing, I guess it should be the persons act and personality that should judged rather than just looks. I have seen many dick head in my life with very good appearances :)

Good questions now watch the answers come in. People dont know how to learn about others race so they ask questions all races have been so stereo typed its not funny. Most humans dont look at it as we are all the same just different looks. They look at them as all be different. Asking questions about another race will never stop in this time and day.

yes, they should... But a lot of times the questions are with situations that the whole world find debatable (ie. the style of certain races, the features of certain races women/men, or the skills of certain races). Its usually something that more than one race have about all races.

I totally agree. When the World Cup was on and everyone kept asking "is Zidane a muslim" or is who ever a muslim? I mean what does it matter what religion he is. He's a good footballer. Unless maybe to inspire other muslims to be footballers? Still I don't think it matters.

OK then, if you're so clever, who won the 100M Sprint race in the 1944 Olympics?

Racism is not a good habit! The good/bad thing about this part of yahoo is you can ask any question/s you have regardless of being valid questions!@

I have found this usually happens when racists are arguing their point as they have a very thin argument to start with and use a load of rubbish to justify it.
RACISM IS BAD.
