Why is it racist to acknowledge difference?

Black people ARE GENERALLY better at sport- it's genetics, they GENERALLY have more muscle twitch fibres and put muscle on faster.

Is that ok to say?

Now what if I put it in a negative light, they are also GENERALLY less intelligent than white counterparts in terms of IQ tests/career development etc (obviously there's a lot of socio-economic issues invovled there) but to say black people are better at sport implies white people are worse, so why is it so bad to say black people are less intelligent.


neg me all you want but you're just being ignorant and in your strong desire to appear non-racist, simply mask that inherently you probably are racist.

and fyi, no i'm not racist.

Fair point, but we can swim.
"and fyi, no i'm not racist."

I am not sure how you can say that when you are claiming that Black people are less intelligent than White people and therefore, that isn't that an inherently racist statement?

I think if black people had more access to swimming pools, they would be better at that as well.

This. I just don't think generalisations like that should be made in general. And anyway OP, how is career advancement only due to intelligence? I think intelligence is a very small factor..

Because black people don't have more muscle twitch fibers. Males have more than femals but black and whites and other enthnicities have roughly an equal amount. That's not to say some people don't have more than others but it's not necessarily due to colour.

Lol and white people are no more intelligent than black people just as black people and no more stupid than white people. Stop looking at bias studies made when it was acceptable to keep blacks at slaves.
