    “Race mixing” probably wasn’t a phrase until the African slave trade. Humans “race mixed” all the fucking time there is almost zero genetic diversity between races. There’s more within any given race.

    …Have “race-mixing” detractors ever met a such a person? They’re gorgeous.

    I bet half-Neanderthals in 60,000 BC were freaking studs.

      You see that dock out there? Built it myself. Hand crafted each piece, and it’s the best dock in town! But do they call me “McGregor the dock builder”?

      No!

    Some people still have traces of Neanderthal DNA. Wonder how that happened.
