Sometimes I don't tell people my ethnicity because I don't want people to label me, and when I meet new people I don't really want to know what they are because it'll affect how I perceive them. \n\nAnyways, if you go back 2,000 generations we're all African. Race is only important if you want to generalize.

I'm Indian..which means I'm also Asian...\n\nI know that for me and a lot of other people I know, we all look for other Indian guys...\n\nIt's not that we're racist or anything...It's just culture and we don't have a problem following it since it's probably the best for our lives..and its sort of weird for us to date someone out of our race when all the other girls only date Indian guys too...\n\nThe guys however...they usually aren't all for only dating Indian girls...they don't mind going around the world looking for a perfect girl to fall in love with...however, they usually end up marrying an Indian girl..\n\nlol..thats my lil explanation\n\nP.S. we usually get a lot of pressure from our parents since we're young about finding a good indian guy to marry...so..yea..lol

My race is Caucasian.  My ethnicity is Scottish/Irish/Italian/Mohawk and Iriquois.  (a real Heinz 57!)\n\nAnyway you slice it, I am American (not Irish American, African American etc...) - that bugs the snot out of me!

Does it matter if your black, white, yellow, brown or otherwise? Let's think about it, when it all comes down to bone structure and level of mallamon (not sure of spelling!) in your skin, then why do we see people so differently? We are all people sharing this planet, it's our belief structure and how we act that differentiates us from one another.\n\nSo may answer is you is 'Yes' because you are dating the person not the race! Cultural backgrounds sometimes need to be considered, but really the same rules would apply if you were dating someone of the same race.\n\nMy wife is Asian and I am Caucasian. I am attracted to the beauty of the person and my wife.

We are basically all the same.  Those small differences in DNA as a result of mutation (genetics) are what make us feel (and look) so different from one another.  But remember how tiny those DNA particles are...

neither africa nor asia are racially homogenous.  look at the vast differences between indians, arabs, and chinese in asia and pygmys, berbers, and black africans in africa.  there is huge variation.\n\nrace is not genetically significant.  people from the same race often show more genetic differences amongst themselves than they do with other races.  its just that we see skin and hair color predominantly and make the false assumption that these must be important indicators of genetics.  i don't know what caused differing hair and eye colors to evolve, but i am certain that these are very superficial traits which actually would have virtually nothing to do with whether the people are racially or genetically homogenous.

well in my anthro class a few yrs back i remember they said that asians are part indians and i guess indians have wide faces..so maybe thats why?

No. You are vaguely related to every one now. We are not getting closer. As mitochondrial mutation shows; the longer you are bifurcating from your common ancestor, the more you accumulate mutation and the more variety on that count alone. Not to mention somatic recombination, etc., etc..

HMMM... that's funny because i sometimes fell like africans don't except black american (maybe it's becuase i'm light skin lol) but I don't know the answer i love all people

A few points of clarification.\n\nFirst an etiquette suggestion. People from Africa don’t “have hair different from ours”. You should realise that people from Africa are ‘allowed’ to use the internet too. Whatever hair type you have, you need to realise that it isn’t shared by everyone else reading.\n\n\nSecondly you need to realise that people of African decent don’t have any common hair type at all. People of African descent have straight blond hair, wavy brown hair, curly black hair and every other possible combination. In short people in Africa don’t have hair “have hair different from ours” It becomes a real problem when people speak of ‘Africa’ as though it’s some sort of united whole. People in Africa include:\n\nTypical white-skinned people of Egypt or Libya who regularly have blue eyes and blond hair.\n\nAsian Malay people of Madagascar who have the typically ‘Asian” brown skin, epicanthic fold and straight black hair.\n\nGolden-brown skinned San and Hottentot people of southern Africa who normally have an epicanthic fold and very tightly curled hair of extremely determinate growth.\n\nAnd of course all those groups blend with one another seamlessly. As a result there is simply no basis in saying that there is any typical African hair type.\n\nBeyond that I’m not quite sure what you are asking. \n\nDo you want to know why people of African descent have evolved to have that hair type?\n\nOr do you want to know what makes hair grow in that fashion? \n\nThe first question entails a very complicated answer. The first I assume you are asking why many  African Americans, who are mostly of West African Negro descent, have a common curly hair type. But even that is somewhat misleading because people who have lived in northern Europe for millennia also have the same hair type occasionally, it’s just rarer there.\n\nAs for why that hair type, the answer probably lies in our ancestry. Humans evolved in Africa and spread out from there to cover the rest of the world. The first humans are assumed to have had hair similar to the modern San and Hottentot groups. That is tightly curled coarse hair, but hair of determinate growth. In some ways San hair is more like pubic hair or many types of beard in that it grows for relatively short periods of time before it falls out. As a result the hair always stays short. That make sit very easy to manage. For our first human ancestors that was probably advantageous since it reduced the opportunity for parasites like lice to take hold and made it very easy to manage since it never requires cutting.\n\nLater humans, still confined to Africa, developed head hair of the same basic tightly curled type, but of indeterminate growth. What that means is that it will keep growing for months or years before it falls out. As a result the hair needs to be trimmed or it will grow into an ‘Afro’ or dreadlocks. Exactly why this change from short to long hair occurs is a mystery, but it was probably simply because people find long hair sexually attractive. \n\nAfter a few people moved out of sub-Saharan Africa a hair type developed which was less tightly curled leading to wavy or even straight hair. Once again there is no sensible reason why this occurred, though it has been speculated that the fact that straight hair becomes greasy may have aided in cold tolerance or may have assisted in parasite control in climates where the head was covered with clothing.\n\nSo in short African Americans commonly retain the ‘second’ type of human hair, being long and tightly curled. Many other people have a third hair type that \n\nAs for why African-American hair grows in that manner, it’s largely genetic. Hair is produced from hair follicles, which almost ‘squeeze’ the hair out of a hole in the skin like tooth paste being squeezed out of a tube. In people with straight hair the hole is round and so the hair is round. People with curly hair have flattened holes and the hair i
