Also, it would be interesting to see how many minorities it would take to successfully fill a “niche” demand for each group vs. what level of minority presence allows these effects to show. I thought because there were so few minorities here, that the ones here would at least fill a small “niche”, but apparently, it turns out that the acceptance level is much lower than even the number here, and probably not reflective of what the population will ever provide. (for instance, lots of Asian women but very few Asian men, more Indian women than Indian men, as many black people as there are in Utah, with fewer black women than black men, etc.)

And the people who deny housing or employment don’t think they are racist either. They honestly believe they are making associations based on objective personal characteristics. The trends of systemic racism have roots in subconscious associations that happen in the first second, and go on to color all subsequent interactions.

To all the people here complaining that we’re ignoring the races’ different “obesity rates” and heights, please keep in mind that, as I say, the data sets were normalized for attractiveness. So insofar as a person’s weight affects this, it’s accounted for in the data. Ditto for height, for men.
