i feel like it is not racist because you are not making an evaluative judgment. you are making generalizations, though, and some might be offended by that.

lol....No, I don't think it's racist if you are stating a fact. I just never heard of the bigger foreheads and ears...kind of struck me funny. So, I guess it wouldn't be racist if I said, blacks have big lips, noses, and penis's? Maybe not racist...but quite the generalization.

Well you are being a bit general because I suppose it is fair to say that you haven't met all the white people in the world and I bet you haven't met all the black people in the world, so your statement is incorrect if not racist.

Why is everyone so scared of this question? It is to do with sunlight, melatonin and how long your ancestors have lived in areas of high sunlight. Its as simple as that. Black people also have a high level of intelligence too. Ten points higher than white people on average.

Describing physical traits, in the right context would not be racist- Although, it has been done and actually gotten people fired-To insinuate that any race is ... compared with...can be opening yourself up for major criticism.

Yes, it is thoughtcrime to acknowledge that there may be any visible difference in appearance between people whose ancestors left Africa 300 years ago and people whose ancestors left Africa 50,000 years ago. I'm appalled you'd even ask.
