> Imagine telling someone that they need "white-only" time Boys and girls (at least the majority of them) behave and socialize visibly differently, and can benefit from it. Races do not have the same sorts of inherent distinct needs, and if they do it's typically more granular than "white" or "black"; more likely you want time with the Italian side of your family, or the Somali side, or with your girlfriend's Panjabi roots. Why do you think so many women occasion a "girls' night out", or men "hang out with the guys"? Boys and girls have a lot more significant physiological and sociological differences than whites and blacks. Whereas, for example, the noticeable differences between a Japanese woman and a Mestizo woman come down to things like whether the earwax is likely dry or oily, or the probable size of teeth or lips. These sorts of things have basically no relevance or importance to social relationships. Drawing meaningful distinction between the cohort characteristics of boys and girls is not sexist. I have no interest in determining the rights or freedoms of either group based on these characteristics. I would merely suggest that people in either cohort are likely to have needs that differ more than within each cohort. A hen and a rooster are both chickens, but they are meaningfully distinct as well.

> Why do you think so many women occasion a "girls' night out", or men "hang out with the guys"? Cultural momentum. They inherit the habit from older generations. May as well ask why Swedes love saunas, or why asian cuisine uses chopsticks. My friend crowds have not had anything resembling those segregated nights out in forever, and in fact, headway is being made insofar women have men in their bridal parties and vice-versa. > These sorts of things have basically no relevance or importance to social relationships. You haven't made a case for why the physiological differences between men and women have relevance.

  "Cultural" Such a term makes me laugh. Let's get something quick out of the way: Billions of people practice white-only time and black-only time and oriental-only time on a daily basis. When you go out in town with your in-group of mostly-white friends, then you are practicing white-only time on a subconscious level. I see all races doing this every single day of every hour. There is nothing cultural about this behavior. It is as natural as taking a breath of oxygen. Exhibit A: Babies prefer faces of their own race. https://www.rt.com/news/384606-babies-race-skin-study/ https://www.rt.com/news/384606-babies-race-skin-study/ I assume the same hypothesis can be made about men, women, girls and boys and as to why they gravitate to each other. This behavior isn't learned or cultural, it is the biological nature of our species. Please save me your pittance of a propaganda.
