re: #85 Solomon2

If I say pygmies are shorter than other folk, isn’t that racism?

No.

If I say Andes Indians are often good runners because their lungs process oxygen better, isn’t that racism?

It’s very simplistic to say that their lungs process oxygen better. In general, in high-altitude populations you find a lot of various mutations regarding lung size, oxygen saturation in blood, blood vessel proliferation, heart strength, etc.

And, no, it’s not racist to note allele differences between various environments. Nor is it sexist to note that women lack penises.

Sheesh, this is sophomore-level crap from you.
