wow some ground breaking research there...
1.You cant put everything on race...diet? western people have a very different diet compared to SEA Girls...?
Take SEA girl and put her into a western society and make her eat western food...well she will be pretty big eventually...
I made mention of body shape (not waist size), have you not noticed asian girls are generally smaller than say, western girls? Of course an asian girl may end up big if she eats western food etc, but will she suddenly grow taller etc? I don't think so
Are you going to argue (as you did below) that food is somehow the cause of this? Africans have pretty good diets too that have a lot more similarity with an asian diet than western - how come africans are not similar to asians in terms of body (e.g. height). Not everything is easily explainable by "environment" asquithian (x race is like this cos they eat z food which causes x race to have this quality - it's a tad circular).

2. Sure its pretty well know that asian girls living in their original culture (environment) are smaller GENERALLY...what purpose does this research serve? Just because their is a correlation of results across a race or culture or people doesnt mean its genetic ...like eh? maybe it just means they eat the same food which means they live in the same ENVIRONMENT. Which happens to be different to western girls...put an asian girl in a western culture, make her eat western food she will get big pretty quickly...All this kind of research does is justift people and govrenment racially discriminating...GOOD WORK!
Have you ever considered the point to this research? It's usually so doctors know which diseases and disorders people of different origins suffer from (and some races differ in how diseases affect them). Imagine someone turned up at the GP with SARS symptoms a few years ago - the GP wouldn't have known what was going on.
Have a think WHY this research goes ahead, it's not to do with racially discriminating. The same medical fix doesn't help everyone (since we have different bodies and diets), hence medical solutions have to cater for different races, instead of imposing western fixes on say mediterranean and asian people who live here.

Also you racial categorisation does not take into account people who are not of pure 'race'
True - but cross-cultural studies are a relatively new thing Asquithian. The very fact that we're able to help (for example) asian people who live in Australia, who have a disease normally only found in asia, shows how this stuff can save lives. Mixed-race research will undoubtedly surface in the future, but remember cross-cultural research itself is relatively new.

Also your 'research' can justify the views taken by an idiot and racist such as Berry...
That's like saying lets not have laws because an idiotic PM could override them. Nearly any info can be twisted to support someone's views - that doesn't mean research (which can and does save live) should be suppressed.

do i have to do it again
i think the racial norm of an asian male is
physically weak
small penis (geeze lets call in the stats; average asian erect penis is 13.5cm ...non asian erect penis is around the 16 to 17cm mark...wow...small penii must be a racial trait with the asian male
) -
cant innovate
therefore i am justified in holding a prejudice towards him whenever i see one...
(CAN YOU SEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE SOCIAL RAMIFICATIONS OF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING) on your quest to 'norm' people
Congrats
Based on the above, WHAT prejudice would you hold against him? Even if the above had lots of evidence for them (which I'm not sure they do - particularly the innovation "claim"), that doesn't mean every asian fits that mould, and as I said before - if someone was so quick to discriminate on something such as penis size, would you want to know them anyway?
You sound like an advocate of the quota system (e.g. a city has 1/3 blacks and 2/3 whites therefore if a company has x amount of positions then 1/3 should be given to the best black candidates and 2/3 should be given to the best white candidates). This would ensure racial equality, is it something you'd support?
The point of the research is to medically discriminate, so people of races can get a more specific, helpful treatment instead of a generalised western treatment (which may not be as effective as a treatment back home). It's like giving psychotherapy in english to someone who just came here from China and whose english isn't great yet - don't you think it'd be better to give the psychotherapy in Chinese?
