Has there been any discussion of the global rise in interracial marriages yet?
There is both a sociological and genetic component to this trend. Genetically mixed children are a little better off - women have always strayed from the tribe to glean some fresh, dominant genes.
But now, in the modern world, the ethnocentric traditions and mores have become quite weak, so people don’t feel the social pressure (beside the occasional “you have a ___ fetish!”) to procreate –or date – only inside their race. So, people are going out and fooling around with any race without getting stoned. It’s an interesting time (genetically good, but possibly bad for civilization as stabilizing traditions are eroded.)
how about the billions of chinese men who have no mating future within their own borders,we’ll see a global invasion,it was all carefully planned several centuries ago.
first the breeding of a male only nation
then the rise of that nation in economic fields
forget about americans in thailand,the chinese are all set to swamp florida/StTropez and all the other now poor and meaningless places on earth

I don’t see the erosion of traditions as a bad thing. Many traditions are based on ethnocentric ideals, superstitions, or otherwise archaic and outdated ideals. Many are more destructive than good.

And that’s not a bad thing. In fact, I applaud and encourage it.[/quote]

Only the men though. Lots of gay men in China not so many gay women.
That is a great thing though, leaves more women for us men lol
I encourage all men to be gay, it leaves more women for us opressed heterosexuals :bravo:
Could be wrong about their not being many gay Chinese women though. I haven’t met many in Taiwan.
That’s what happens when you have 5,000 years of a male-dominating culture floating around in a single country with little hopes of change. It drives the women into the arms of less aggressive men. They should have seen it coming after they started that foot-binding bullshit. Maybe they’ll start foot binding for men after all the women have run off.

Historically, countries with lots of extra men sitting around like to go to war. If I was a gambler I’d bet on a war between India and China sometime in the future when they run low on clean water, oil, or somthing.
Maybe, but I have the flu and can’t be bothered to think about it. Anyway, Chinese New Year is here and now that the traffic has died down on account of everyone leaving town it is time for the fucking fire works to start. This is how the world will go out, in a rage of stupidity.
I couldn’t google any good studies about this. I did see that mixed-race kids have more psychological issues, but because of environment - people treated mixed-race kids differently. Hopefully this is changing.
I based my generality about mixed-races having better health on the evidence of poor health in groups that don’t have a large mating pool. Here’s one quote from NY Times (-I didn’t want to register-) about what too much inbreeding does… globalaffairs.org/forum//sho … hp?t=12055
So, if you find a study that says “Kids of mixed marriages have higher incident of ___ disease”, I’d be very interested in it.

I’m an expert on this. But I am too lazy to reply in detail as it would take several pages.
If we are talking about physical attributes, here is what is generally true for agricultural animals plants etc
What you need to look up is hybrid vigor.
The offspring of a mixed race (variety) pairing is nearly always gentically better off than its parents. You need to compare to the parents. Not the rest of the population.Breeding too close leads to what is known as “in-breeding” depression.
However with animals and plants not all inbreeding is bad (talking about agricultural animals).
Hybrids usually do better in bad environments and a wider variety of environments where agricultural animals and plants that have been inbred from high producing parents do better in only the narrow environment they have been selected for blah blah blah (I was an angricultural scientist many years ago).
Anyway it gets boring the more it goes on
So yeah basically hybrids (scientific term) ie mixed race are better off than their parents.
GENETICALLY. As far as social factors etc etc. I haven’t got a clue.
