Much more than "OK"! ;-)

They aren't white. They're pale tan with a touch of pink. This is white.

They're cute and all, but the way they dress, they're probably frigid in bed and just lie there like a sack of old clothes while you "poke me with that horrible dirty thing" once a month or so. Shame.

Isn't that Albino?

Yes, albinos are white.

Yeah but what about negro gingers and Asian gingers?

Is a black albino black or white?

If they're albino, how can they possibly have black skin? Fallen into a vat of black paint maybe? Full body tattoo?

Tell you what, if you give me a definition of "black" and "white" that makes sense, then we can talk about who is what.

I think if a person has African or African-American ancestry, has negroid features and would under normal circumstances have more melatonin in their skin, then they would categorize as black.

That includes black albinos and gingers.

Every race has mutations.

Tell me you know nothing about genetics without telling me you know nothing about genetics.

The idea that "all Africans" belong to the same race is as stupid as anti-gun nuts saying that all guns use the same ammunition. Except anti-gun nuts aren't that ignorant. Even they know that a shotgun, a BB gun and a .45 use different ammunition, even if they know nothing else about guns.

The idea of "human races" doesn't hold water, not even close, but even if it did then sub-Saharan Africa would be home to probably about forty or fifty different races, Europe about five or ten, and the rest of the world another twenty or thirty -- at least half of which would include people with dark skin. And aside from albinos, every single one of them have melanin in their skin. Including the Europeans.

But yeah, you just keep thinking that everyone with dark skin is "black".

(By the way, melatonin is a hormone produced in the brain you are thinking of melanin.

This is what I said.

Read my comment again and try to be less patronizing.
