>It is an intersting coincidence that ability to digest milk as an adult and fluency in English are correlated. Last time I checked Scandinavia didn’t speak English, and so is Germany, France, Spain and the rest of Europe, neither as official language nor fluent. Your link between those is silly and incorrect, for one: as said most if not all of European aren’t English native speakers, and the biggest native English speakers are found in North America, specifically in the US, a country that obviously is a mix of all people and ethnicities, even the ones who call themselves “whites” are actually mixed to some degree, so if you consider the fluency in English as your baseline, then Americans from asians roots for example shouldn’t be lactose intolerant while some German dude who barely speaks English is?! That’s idiotic. Second: you are correlating something genetically inherited with something you can learn in the first few years, which is even sillier. If you correlate that with race, then you might be correct, as maybe the majority of caucasians, asians, etc. are/aren’t lactose intolerant, but I never looked at any studies in that regard, but it will make sense at least.
