Agree.

Last trip to Iceland......omg!

I also remember that Norwegian exchange student back in high school....daymn.
 
btw thin girls slutty dressed from any race look hot. its only people who look hot dressed correctly (without a lot of skin showing, not indecent, etc) who are actually beautiful.
 
I personally think that thai/filipino/Indonesian are mostly ugly in general.
Not being racist, just an observation and opinion, I don't particularly dislike anyone because of their race, but I do believe that they are mostly ugly people. Think of it this way, I love dogs but I do think some of them are ugly yet I like them anyway.

And what is your race?
 
Just so you know - the term race is kind of outdated. Just because journalists don't keep up on modern academia they still use it. Race is a biological term not a cultural term. The fact that you have distinct categories for 'Japanese/Chinese' etc. means that you should put ethnicity. If you want to say 'people with X and Y recessive alleals who also have the phenotypic expressions of blah blah' that would be a diff story!
 
One day, it won't matter. We will have mixed races so much that the only race left will be called "Mutt", or "Earthling"
 
Hmmm.....

I wander how many people here know just how much momentum the 'genetic similarity theory' is gaining lately.....

Reading material FTW 🙂

..."if organisms could identify genetically similar organisms, they could exhibit altruism toward these "strangers" as well as toward kin." (Rushton 2000, pg. 74) It follows, he claims, that "two individuals within an ethnic group will, on average, be more similar to each other genetically than two individuals from different ethnic groups. According to genetic similarity theory, people can be expected to favor their own group over others." (Rushton 2000, pg. 85)

GST states that a gene ensures its own survival by acting so as to bring about the reproduction of any organism in which copies of itself are to be found
 
Saw this thread on the "Hot Topics" list of "My Forums" lol.
The thread poll should be multiple choice for those of us that like variety. =P


Btw, it should be "ethnicity" not "race", as there's technically only one race - human - and we're all a part of it. 🙂
 
Northeastern European (german, slavic, western russian), some mediterranean women are the most attractive to me.

I'm not as attracted to asian women, but I definitely notice that some seem to have near flawless complexion even in their 30s/40s.

Just my honest opinion. Definitely not a truth...to claim that would be racist.
 
White and Hispanic do it for me!

Asian or Black I don't like.

And it is hard to judge the persian / middle eastern since they have their faces covered!
 
what the ******? you know what? you're such a stupid ass, Op

human race will be humans

take those (model) porn pictures off

if you want to talk series: Zergs are the best lookin' race.
 
There are good looking people in every race. I can't believe your stupidity in posting about this. If you haven't noticed 90% of common people do not come even close to our "ideal" socially accepted "good looking". besides. " how can anyone possibly answer this question. Since most people have been in no more than 2 countries. And they couldn't have been tallying the entire time. anyone here who gives an answer is a phony, anyone who would expect one is an idiot.

What does this have to do with anything?

If you live/were raised in a major city like LA or NYC then you've regularly seen many people from many different countries throughout your lifetime. As others have noted, it's just someone's opinion; it's not a big deal.
