Not scientific, no. But many people self-identify by race and model their behavior on those who look like them. Not all. But many.

- jberryman 16y agothat has no bearing on the discussion of the validity of comparing people who look alike but live in different countries. a white finn might look like me, but i have no idea how i would go about modelling my behavior on them.
- m_myers 16y agoHmm, that's not what I meant to communicate. And now that I try to rephrase it in my head, I see that you're right about the relevance (or lack thereof). I was trying to say that there can be a difference between, say, blacks and whites (and Asians and...) even though they aren't "races"; but of course that doesn't have much to do with the subject in this comment thread.
