<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 787304, member: 6370&quot;]I was taught the &#039;5 races&#039; and they broke it down as:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Caucazoid (white)</p><p>Negroid (black)</p><p>Mongoloid (asiatic)</p><p>Australoid (indian/native)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Then what they termed modifications (subcategories) branching from these main categories.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>These days just saying there are different races gets people upset...I saw a thread where someone asked how many races there were and people came in saying &#039;one&#039;...human race...and preached about how we have to stop trying to categorize races as it is wrong.This is simply denial. But they certainly will give a different name to every different type of dog, cat, rat, fish,&nbsp; any animal on earth...just dont do it to humans!! We are animals, as such there are different types of us and these different type exhibit different characteristics. There is nothing at all wrong with trying to categorize them. Thats what humans do...we observe, label and categorize...its our forte!! One must put aside emotional things and know its just a matter of biology.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Oh, BTW, My wife is from Pakistan and for certain reasons she doesn&#039;t like to be called &#039;middle eastern&#039; so she refers to herself when she must as &#039;asian&#039;. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
