Technically Halle Berry is as much white as she black. Why is it that a mulatto is considered black but not white?
In most cases, when black blood is introduced into a white family's gene pool, the offspring has noticable black-ethnic features so it's easy to catagorize the kid as black. Wheras when white blood is introduced into a black genepool the white-ethnic differences that come with it aren't as noticable so the child is still easily catigorized as black.
These definitions and descriptions are most used in good old America where race matters more than everywhere else in the world for some reason.
It's nice to be able to use those old college social sciences classes!

Well I am white and my wife is Asian, and we have a daughter that is only 3 years old but is absolutely beautiful. She has her mothers Eyes, but is pure white skinned and reddish brown hair. I am 6 foot 2 in height and she is already a five year old in height so she will also be very tall.
I think Mixes of white males and asian women make the cutest and most beautful children. I have never seen a mix that hasnt resulted in this.. Could be a new generation of knockouts !

It dates back to the Slave era in the South. The "One Drop Rule" if you have a drop of black blood, you were considered black. The reason for this has more to do with preserving the slave "property" status.
Hitler used the same test in determining who was Jewish during the Third Reich. Rabbinic law [the Haggadah?] states that "Jewishness" is inherited on the mother's side. The Nazi "One Drop" rule disregarded this.
LoveAsianChicks... That's a whole different ball of wax. Because the skin/hair/nose differences aren't as... well... different as when you mix the two extremes white/black, what will turn out could claim either of the two depending mainly on eye features. I have seen quite a few asian/white mixes that can claim either race without a lot of scrutiny. Sometimes the asian genes are stronger but for some reason, even then, they are not treated as fellow Asians by other Asian people. I'm not Asian so I can't comment too much on this matter but from what I've experienced here in NY & in San Francisco where there are a lot of these mixes it seems like the Asian community is a very tough and unforgiving crowd when it comes to these things!
It almost always turns out some very good looking people though.

i don't understand how someone can be 1/4 indian, 1/2 scottish, 1/20 bolivian, 1/20 mexican, 1/20 brazillian and 1/10 australian -- or whatever. thats really a crock of shit. half one, half the other, maybe. maybe a person with noticable features from four different races... but really, come on. this isn't a pick 'n mix.
i mean ... there is a noticable fucking difference between a chick and a cake recipe.

Groucho Marx was once refused membership to a country club because he was Jewish. He asked if his son could wade in the pool up to his waist because the son was only half Jewish. Marx finally dropped the whole country club decision with the statement:
"I would never join an organization that would accept me as a member!"
My kid's dad is Jewish because his mom is. I am not Jewish so technically our child is not Jewish. Just the same, I tell her she's Jewish enough for the country club!
race schmace. what is this dating thing you speak of?
If somebody is beatuful inside out, I don't care the race thing.
Did you know that?
Kelly Hu is a fourth-generation American with Chinese, Hawaiian and English ancestory. (she has Asian look)
Dean Cain (the guy from Lois & Clark TV series) is part Welsh, Japanese, French-Canadian and Irish. - One quarter Japanese (how about him? White ppl look? mmm...)
Anyway, who the fuck care what race she is. No one is pure, we're all human. Tiger wood is 50% black and 50% Asian, but most people wouldn't know. Also, someone mentioned Dean Caine.
If you like to date exclusively inside your own "supposed race", you can learn a bit about history. There's quite a few "bottleneck" gene in European history especially among the royal families. The human species will be extinct without diversity in the gene pool.
I heard a geneticist say once that "race is a social fiction." His point was, genetically, there is no such thing as a "race gene."
At any rate, how do you define "race"? When I was growing up, there were whites, negroes, Indians (Native Americans), and orientals (Asians). Since then, more "races" have been talked about: Pacific Islanders, Native Australians, and so on.
I've even heard Israelis described as "racist" when it comes to Arabs. This is particularly interesting, because Jews and Arabs are virtually identical in terms of physical characteristics, and are devided by language and culture more than anything the least bit genetic. Indeed, both are referred to equally as "semitic" (descendants of Shem).
So, what races are you talking about?
