[**** stir]So genetic differences between black people and white people, which ones superior Tefal?[/ **** stir]
*throws asians and orientals into the mix*
A little tact goes a long way?
I wouldn't appreciate people constantly taking digs at my poor eyesight, and a diabetic wouldn't like people harshing on them for that, could we not afford gay people the same level of respect?
They are, after all, ill
So genetic differences between black people and white people, which ones superior Tefal?
In a very sunny environment such as the the equator a black person will be better off when both are unassisted by technology
In a northern dark climate a white person will be better suited due to how the body produces vitamin D and other factors
It's why there are white and black people and why they live where they do...
Consenting adults can do whatever they like behind closed doors - it's no-one else's business imo. But when they start doing it in public it becomes everyone's business. People were right to complain about this and Heinz were right to withdraw the ad.
But then heterosexual PDAs should get the same level of censorship.
Asians (if you mean arabs/inidans etc, are very dark skinned (especially Indians) and live in high amounts of sun however I don't know why they have different nose shapes (black peoples wide nose helps cool hot air, white persons thin nose helps warm cold air)
As for orientals I don't know.
If you're going to try and ****stir try chosing a more apt example

What the hell?
I found that advert amusing and clever, a good advert id say.
Unless its offensive to be gay (and it isnt) i dont see what the problem is.

Only if you're naive/stupid enough to think everything should be fair and equal.
The differences extend beyond that, rules are you have to pick one
But you have taken physical differences which do not affect the organisms ability to breed or survive out of their environment, as such both are roughly equal, both can easily survive in both environments, just each is more suited to their own.
Also neither would be classed as an "illness" or detrimental condition.

I'm just poking at a fellow CN player
Whilst homosexuality may technically be classed as an illness, it doesn't actually have a detrimental effect to the lives of those who are.
Sure, it goes against the reproducing aspect of existence, but it doesn't actually make the lives of gay people any worse off physically.
The only real danger is that from what actions the close-minded people choose to inflict upon them.

Genetic differences extend well beyond physical structure to cope with environment, disease, intelligence etc... so you have to pick ooone!
for sake of the thread, which ever race he picks is also gay.See what i mean about people just getting arsey over words, I honestly couldn't give a crap if they are happy, sad, gave a good life have a **** life.
Nothing to do with what I think, Human Rights Laws say so
Look at it this way. Using the illness perspective.
Oh no! Those two men, who suffer from the genetic defect of homosexuality are kissing! Get it off the TV!
or
Oh no! That heterosexual couple, who both have a genetic defect and are wearing glasses as a result, are kissing! Get it off the TV!

no the other differences are trade off for the benifical ones.
For example plants that grown on copper mines (something which used never to exist as the high copper content kills plants) Cannot live without the high copper.
Rats which are fully immune to warfrin, need incredible amounts of vitamin K and so die, but those with one resesive gene (weak to warfrin) and one dominant (immune to warfrin) need more vitamin K than normal but can usually find it, and are partially resistant (ie they will survive a slight dose)
And if you are going to bring up how black Americans seam generally fitter etc, this is a lingering effect of selective breeding during the slave era.
Look at it this way...
man has nipples out on tv/ is swimming in swimming trunks thats fine and dandy, woman has her norks out and it's not.
Is that right?
