If you are talking genetic or biological... well that is the outdated part I was referring to. There are regional genetic tendencies but they are vast (i.e. continental) and not consistent. I would really love to go into more detail here but my field is not biology/medicine/genetics. The conclusions they come to concerning race are relevant to my field of study however.
Let's be clear that there is not one "Asian race" as there is not one "White race". Clear distinctions can be seen between Irish folks, German folks, and Swedish folks, just to name three. The same is true in Asia.
