What’s with the shitty chin hair? Why depict it that way? That alone makes me think this is junk science.

Then I guess I am into black men.

With the name Cheddar Man & that likeness, this all seems straight out of a horror movie.

I can personally refute this story.

I just tried to dance and rap and I am still terrible at both.

There weren’t two random Homo sapiens popping up in completely different parts of the world.

there are theories about this. we have three distinct groups (caucasoids, mongoloids, and negroids)

also there are theories that neanderthal-human breeding created caucasoids

this information isn't that ground-breaking anyway. "white people" didn't come into Europe until like 8,000 years ago

quote:

Now, a new study from the same team drills down further into that remarkable data to search for genes that were under strong natural selection—including traits so favorable that they spread rapidly throughout Europe in the past 8000 years.


quote:

When it comes to skin color, the team found a patchwork of evolution in different places, and three separate genes that produce light skin, telling a complex story for how European’s skin evolved to be much lighter during the past 8000 years. The modern humans who came out of Africa to originally settle Europe about 40,000 years are presumed to have had dark skin, which is advantageous in sunny latitudes. And the new data confirm that about 8500 years ago, early hunter-gatherers in Spain, Luxembourg, and Hungary also had darker skin: They lacked versions of two genes—SLC24A5 and SLC45A2—that lead to depigmentation and, therefore, pale skin in Europeans today.


quote:

But in the far north—where low light levels would favor pale skin—the team found a different picture in hunter-gatherers: Seven people from the 7700-year-old Motala archaeological site in southern Sweden had both light skin gene variants, SLC24A5 and SLC45A2. They also had a third gene, HERC2/OCA2, which causes blue eyes and may also contribute to light skin and blond hair. Thus ancient hunter-gatherers of the far north were already pale and blue-eyed, but those of central and southern Europe had darker skin.

Then, the first farmers from the Near East arrived in Europe; they carried both genes for light skin. As they interbred with the indigenous hunter-gatherers, one of their light-skin genes swept through Europe, so that central and southern Europeans also began to have lighter skin. The other gene variant, SLC45A2, was at low levels until about 5800 years ago when it swept up to high frequency.

this is probably also true

separate evolution of the different "races" will NEVER be allowed to be accepted, even if it's 100% true

science is very political and not this unbiased source of objective analysis like many believe, especially when it comes to areas that show differences in groups that mirror societal marginalization (you still see studies on this related to sex, so you still see the vitriol in response)

According to the article, pale skin originated in the Middle East.

That would send the PoliBoard into a frenzy.
