I'll find the study somewhere but it was determined blacks carry more lean muscle mass per square inch than whites. But society also plays into it as well. The only place blacks have been 'allowed' to succeed were in athletics. Of course, that has changed, for the most part.
Now of course there are also studies out there that prove whites (and more importantly Asians) are more intelligent but of course the intelligence testings were based on western knowledge.
Now of course there are exceptions to these rules. Nordics and Eastern Eurpeans are renowned for their strength. And its a testiment to their leniage of hard life living in a extremely cold environment throughout their *********.
I'm just re-stating what I learned in college. Its a very sensative argument and people tend to get bent out of shape discussing it. As long as we can debate this civily, I think we could learn a lot about each other.
