And for everybody information, there's only 3 types of races of human in this world: Mongoloid, Negroid, and Caucasoid and you cant argue about that.
So i dont see a point of having these stupid sub-race names. Just a bunch of ignorant. Dont know what im talking about? research these names.
Sub-races are important to me, because it's easier to stereotype a larger group of people. It's kind of like what others were complaining about before. They didn't like being called "Mexican" just because they were Latino. There isn't one large mesh of Asian cultures. There isn't one large mesh of European cultures. Each sub-race and associated sub-culture are unique and beautiful, and deserve to be studied and preserved, rather than lumped together into one large race like some kind of 1984/Brave New World monstrosity.

Also, the words "Caucasian", "Mongloid," and "Negroid" are inherently racist because they imply that "Caucasian" is the superior race.

Caucasian is a Dirty Word.
