    Again...all of the differences that matter most to you are more likely cultural in character than ethnic. Ethnicity has only been conclusively linked to a few physical differences -- percentage of twitch muscle fibers, melanin content, etc -- which are not particularly earth-shaking.

    When you have a greater degree of variation (genetically, phenotypically, etc.) WITHIN a given "race" than you do between "races," it becomes harder to consider the category significant in a statistical or scientific fashion.
