becoming more common?

Seriously, any of you who are reading Steve Sailer's "work" and taking it seriously should be shot. The guy is a fraud.

No shit

That guy is nazi scum

Why do two you think so?

I perfectly understand why it's possible to disagree with him, but from disagreement to "fraud" and "nazi", there's quite a huge leap...

He's clearly a racist that uses the same nazi psuedo-science that was used on the Jews..

Concrete example?

(I really understand the problem of talkin about "race", but I can't really see that he does it in a negative/degoratative way- claiming one is superior to another etc...)

Ok, I've searched and searched and searched to find out why you have a problem with this guy. I hadn't even heard about him until I read "is love colourblind", an article I read along with a whole bunch of other articles, so I didn't even bother too much about who the authors were. I just asumed that he was interested in the topic, perhaps because he was married to an asian woman or something... (A lot of the articles I read where written by people in IR-relationships.)

So I've googled him, and I must say it was rather hard to find serious critisism of him. Most were just bloggers calling him.. well, "fraud" and "nazi" amongst other... without actually coming with concrete examples as to why he's a "fraud" and "nazi". Now that kind of argumentation I have a problem with- I'm not just going to accept that someones a "fraud" without any explanation...

So I gave up looking for serious critisism of Sailer, and decided to read some other somewhat non-related articles that he's written. After reading this article (How to Help the Left Half of the Bell Curve) I absolutely see where you guys are comming from...


OK, I still actually think he has a point in "is love colourblind", but I agree, he's a nazi

Has anyone else noticed that in the past few years, our kind of relationship has become more common? Perhaps it just catches my eye, but I think there really has been an increase. Not just in the media, but in society as well. I see black man/white woman couple fairly regularly out in public these days. I have been dating blacks exclusively for a while now and when I am out with a date, it almost never turns heads like it used to. I think as the taboo fades into the past, more and more people are opening up to the idea and going with the attraction. And that is a good thing, IMHO.

Yes, I do believe it has become more common. I've seen it a lot more around the block. Also on movies and TV shows.
