>Still thinking that all races are biologically equal in intelligence.

I shygddt

>Individuals all have different sized brains. It is true however that on average, the brains of African-Americans are 5% smaller than the brains of Whites and 6% smaller than East Asians, according to studies of brain weight at autopsy, endocranial volume of empty skulls, head size measurements by the U.S. military and NASA, and two dozen MRI volumetric studies.
>That is a genetic trait because even malnourished Asians from poor countries have a larger brain on average than well fed blacks from western countries.

How is this new? Why are you citing studies from the 80's and 90's? Have you been in a coma or something? It's fucking 2013. If you make a thread on the science board, at least post some new info.

Provide a counter argument with your own recent sources then.

Hard mode: Nothing from sociologists, anthropologists or related pseudoscience.

>no analysis on other brain differences

>>>/pol/ you can converse with the other retards there.

What counter-argument? I was only telling you that it is retarded to repost studies from ancient times everybody already knows. Your post is not conveying any new information and was thus not worthy of posting.

I know /pol/ and /sci/ are right next to each other, but how do you not notice that this is work safe?

You don't know how statistics work.
