I am having difficulty understanding DanaC's point; why genetics so defines a person. I believe genetics is only significantly relevant when society is so racist as to judge based upon first impressions.

Secondary point: racism is not about race or genetics. Racism is bias based on first impressions.
tw, you never stated your point. You simply argued against Dana's. Who's to know that you're arguing nurture if you don't state your case clearly.

Argue all you like, but you're very difficult to understand most of the time.
