Very good point, it is a social construct, skin color is a very basic and clumsy way of identifying 'race'. There are 5 distinct races in Africa alone, not including Europeans or North Africans. Australian Aboriginals are more different from any other ethnic or racial group in the world, their closest relatives are some of the Papua New Guinea, and yet the difference between the Aboriginals and the New Guinea tribesfolk is greater then between any other racial group, Equatorial Africans and Scandinavians for example.

Simple folk get by with their more basic color-keyed understandings of these things however.

Just because you prefer one to the other doesn't make you a racist. Being a racist envolves action. You have to consciously treat people unfairly to be a rascist.

That is, if you believe in the reality of the social construct called "race"


Yes, I believe race is a social construct. That's why I asked.

This test is flawed because it first trains your association between words and faces and then reverses it halfway through.

It's a social construct, but does it have any underlying objective reality?

I got slight preference for blacks over whites.
