Psychlogical effects of racially diverse facial appearances

Your point?

 

Sorry, misread your post.

 

You strongly prefer your race. That is your business. Don't make it mine. I'm Black and I don't mind dating interracial I will gladly do it.

 

Someone made an interesting post on another forum:

It is not just race, it seems to be specific ethnicity also.

 

Miami used to be gorgeous.

 

You know that there are well over 424,698,828 mix people in the world, right? I haven't meant too many of them with these Psychlogical effects. I'm a mixed man myself. You should also read this.

I'm Black and I like cold and mountainous areas. I like those areas BECAUSE they have things like snow, opportunities for winter sports, they are beautiful, and honestly, I just like those areas better.

 

I'm Black and I wouldn't live in Miami. I prefer climates similar to Seattle, Minneapolis, Montreal, Portland, and Denver.

 

Ok this is abit off topic....

But I love Merlin (bbc show that we get here on the sci fi channel).

And it was a real jolt to find that Lady Guinnevere was black...and that she was the love interest of Prince Arthur. Blond haired fair skinned blue eyed Prince Arthur.

But here is the interesting thing----I can watch that show now and its as natural and real as real life to see black Guinnevere kiss the charming white prince. Because ultimately as you get to know the people, skin color is irrelevant.

So, don't fear Anders.....you'll get through it as we mix and match.

 

I don't watch Merlin, but I sooooo support this one. I am a white guy, but black girls are REALLY good. Also, their skin never ages, so if you are old, black girls are the winning combination for you. What do you mean by "now"? (Also I do get steared at a few times when I am out with her in the USA.)

 

What I mean by "now" is that I was distracted that a show taking place in the middle-ages---had black Queen Guinnevere, black knights that type of thing.

But you get through that bit of historical inaccuracey because the skin color becomes irrelevant as you know the charactors.

Wait. Do you mean to tell me that babies react when seeing something they have never seen before? This is breaking news! I wonder if the literally billions of mothers and fathers in this world are aware of this.

 

The psychological effects may not be entirely conscious or obvious to all people. If you are racially mixed yourself, the effects of this may be rather more complex.
As the study I previously posted, racially mixed individuals are more likely to experience social alienation.

While this in itself does not necessarily indicate the cause is facial appearance, it certainly is in line with what we would expect from this type of theory.

 

No one is forcing you to date or breed with anyone, that is Your choice, so stick to your race and others can make their own choices. From the above it sounds as if you want the government to force people to on breed only with those of their own race, thankfully you will never get your wish. Now back to whatever it was you were doing.

 

We have to be taught to hate, something that racists pass on to their own offspring, heck if there is any group that should be restricted from having children it is the haters.

 

Funny, this reminds me of another an idea I had for another thread in this forum: "Women who teach their daugherers Hate". It's about abortion.
The most racist people out there are those in the Democratic Party who view the unborn baby as sub-human and unworthy of life. Not to mention the racial quotas they support under the guise of "affirmative action". The Liberal public universities in California are especially bad. They continue to use tax payer money to support racial discrimination, despite being repeatedly told to stop by the state's Supreme Court. They barely even make an effort to pretend like they are not doing it any more. If a professor writes a book about the white man's role in as the oppressor, they are given a research grant. But if they write a book about the Jewish role in Slavery, they risk their job, or at the very least career advancement. It's not all that uncommon for whole academic departments get shut down over this type of thing.

 

My parents were "everybodies equal" types, and God knows the teachers would never say anything "racist". My experience with races in the real world gave me the views I have today.

 

Of course. Black people never lived in Europe until the slave trade of 1700. Thanks for that bit of historical accuracy.

SARCASM ALERT!

Shameless ignorance.

 

Black people in England before the slave trade were very sparse indeed. The very first reports of black people since the formation of england were in the early 16th century where there was a very small community of Black musicians. There are no reports whatsoever of black people living in England in the medeavel period.

 

The present studies identify one cognitive impact of racial diversity, namely that belonging to a diverse group can lead White individuals to process information more thoroughly. Admittedly, such anticipatory effects emerging before meaningful group interaction are likely not the only or even principal means through which racial heterogeneity is influential. But the present findings clearly render untenable the assumption that the effects of racial diversity on group performance are wholly attributable to the novel informational contributions of non-White members (see also Phillips et al., 2006; Sommers, 2006), and they do so in dramatic fashion: even absent social interaction or exchange of information, mere awareness of a diverse group composition was sufficient to impact the cognitive tendencies of White members. Specifically, one explanation for these thought activation results would be that in certain circumstances, racial diversity exaggerates many Whites’ concerns about avoiding prejudice, leading to more systematic information processing of the sort observed in evaluations of persuasive messages from a Black source (e.g., White & Harkins, 1994) or about a Black target (e.g., Sargent & Bradfield, 2004).

Sorry! I TOTALLY disagree with every point you make!

In fact, I believe that inter racial people are very often more beautiful and stronger than inbred races!

I find your rant borderline offensive, as it is really much too close to Hitler's racist purity ideology. . and we all know where THAT led!

A monumental FAIL in my opinion!

 

I absolutely agree with you! My daughter is adopted, and she is Korean. She has two sons whose father's heritage is half Irish and half Hispanic. Her two sons are the perfect example of "mixed race," and they are BEAUTIFUL and very smart.

It is not diversity and "outbreeding that "weakens" the gene pool. . .it is INBREEDING and racism (in fact, I believe that racism is in itself a sign of a defective mind and soul!

 

Diversity is an artificial intellectual construct for leftists. It's bloodless and meaningless.

Real diversity is something one embraces in his or her own life. Learn it, live it, love it.

 

I disagree with your first statement. I don't see what "Leftists" has to do with it. . .in fact, it is obvious that it is the "Leftists" who truly embrace diversity and LIVE it the most. One only has to look at the make up of the House Republicans and the House Democrats, or compare the attendance at the 2012 Republican and Democratic conventions.

I do, however, agree that "REAL DIVERSITY is something one embraces inhis or her own life," that it is learned by positive exposure to it, that it is lived more or less positively depending on how one approaches it (with or without pre-conceived stereotypes and negativity), and that, if one really approaches it with a positive attitude, one can't help but to love it.
