Why does no one ask ONE simple question: why do MOST people in America - no matter whether white, black, “Hispanic”, or some denomination of Asian - of every political persuasion, and even in the most “integrated” communities, MOST often seek mates that they have ethnic commonality with?

Is it really “racism”, or simply what MOST humans have always done when looking for “compatibility”?

Isn’t it most likely that it was that natural gravitation to seek “commonality” that led, over a long-time process, to the distinctions that have come to be called “race”?

Isn’t there a true and honest and natural distinction, morally and intellectually, between “opposition” to “the other” and simple preference for the familiar? While the former maybe ought to be opposed, morally, must the later be opposed as well?

I think the best course is to let students involved in this issue, personally make their own choices; whatever those choices may be.

Have you ever seen the White-Asian marriage rate?
