Aren't Humans a species?

Homo is the genre and Homo Sapiens is the species, but race is not a biological parameter of classification. There is not a scientific classification of human races that it's approved by the scientific community.
If we base on the most famous race classification from the anthropologist Carleton Coon (you can look for it on wikipedia if you want to see it), we have to say that there are 5 races: Caucasoid, Congoid, Capoid, Mongoloid, Australoid, but at least for me to think of all American (both North and South) people as Mongoloid is ridiculous.
I really prefer to think that all men are the same. 🙂

haha 🤣
@ Reid 1, race = classification of human beings ^^

Gender: Female
Age: 18
Country/Continent: Hong Kong/ Asia
Race: Chinese

Main Personality Traits: I love excitement, adrenaline rushes and to have fun. I love laughing, traveling and hanging out with my friends and family. I love fashion, shopping, parties and outdoor sports. I'm shy with strangers though.

IQ: I took 2 free online IQ tests. One said i had an IQ of 133, the other said i had an IQ of 149 😲 ...so they are both probably garbage. lol
I think it's hard to compare 'intelligence' exactly with my friends because there is no underlying factor to what you determine by being 'intelligent'...If you mean by one's capacity for learning/understanding, I don't think school grades alone can determine how 'intelligent' you are since people can be very hard-working.
I do think all of my friends are very talented in all sorts of areas though...

Otaku or not: Nope, but i love reading manga and if its really addicting i don't stop until i finish, even if it's like 10 + volumes. Lol

Favourite food: Eating good food is one of my favourite hobbies so I could write down a whole page till I start drooling XD...but mainly my favourites are still different types of Asian food. Mostly Chinese, Shanghai-nese, Japanese, Korean, Singaporean, Malay and Thai.

Height: 168cm
Eye Color: Brown
Hair Color: Naturally its black but its brown now

Favourite band/musician: I used to play the piano so i love classical music. Mozart, Rachmaninov, Beethoven, Liszt, Ravel, Chopin
Others include the latest songs that are hit i guess. I usually just go to yahoo music and download the top 100 songs or whatever's playing at MTV. I like stuff from Lifehouse to Nirvana to Rihanna to Jason Mraz

Favourite English Tv Show: Friends!! Buffy(ages ago), Sex and the City, Project Runway

Favourite Movie: The recent Batman movie;The Dark Knight!!, Blood Diamond, The Notebook, A Walk to Remember, Ps: I Love You, Cruel Intentions, Love me if you dare, My Fair Lady, Oceans 11/12/13,

Favourite English Cartoon: I don't watch cartoons. But if i did, it would be The Simpsons.
Most Visited Website: Facebook, Mangaupdates, Hotmail
Favourite Actress: My mind goes blank 😐 ...but i do think Angelina Jolie and Jessica Alba are gorgeous
Favourite Actor: Johnny Depp...and Heath Ledger was amazing as the Joker
How many Siblings: Brother
🙂

I think all people are connected, as in we are all human beings. But we come from different cultures and backgrounds so no, i don't think we are all the same 🙂 Yes, we are the same as in we are all born free and deserve equal human rights, etc.

My point was that Humans aren't a race.

Unless you think Lord of the Rings is real.

And if that's the case, I should like change my race to orc please.

I have seen a lot of accredited publications refer to "The Human Race"

And I don't use the term 'race' to describe a person's ethnicity because 1. Often times it is used incorrectly, and 2. I don't like the implications thereof.

For instance.

American is not a race, it's a nationality. If a Latino is born in the United States, he is American.

Hahaha, okay then my race would be elf.

What i wrote earlier.
"@ Reid 1, race = classification of human beings" 🤣

I thought i was replying Reid 1. My point was also 'humans beings' would be a species rather than a race.
