Agrippa (who is far from being a medophile, whatetever that is) says the reason some scholars speak of "true negroids" is because it´s a super-specialized type, unlike the Caucasoid type. Somalis belong to the so-called Sudanic sub-type. Sudanic, wow I learn a new label each day. I wonder what it will be tommorow, perhaps Nilotic....

It's true, amhara/tigray are some stabilized hybrids, while Somalis are pure indeginious east africans next to other cushites.

I'm talking about in terms of appearence.. the ones I've seen in real life dont look that different from us they're just shorter and have weird headshapes lol. I've seen very few ones that looked heavily mixed.
That kid "habesha" looks like the average xabashi in my opinion.

Admit it, you nearly wrote "strawmen"! ;D It was tempting . But strawman is a retorichal trick. I think Planet Charlie really believes in the existence of the ghosts he's fighting. Hahaha. Well said. I would've opted for "phantoms" personifying "the man"!

Everyone from Greeks to Ethiopians have been included in the so-called ill-defined "Mediterranean race", why don't people abandon this taxon and properly classify people? no one calls ethiopians mediterranean.

WTH?? Coon, Sergi, Hooton, Eliot Smith, all of those classified Ethiopians as being part of the great mysterious Medit race.

No, one of those medit race advocates sad East Africans are medits with Negroid mixture and listed East Africans as a caucasoid subrace. May be. I just meant that in mainstream Western culture, high (literature) or low (man of the street) there isn't the slightest idea of any affiliation with East Africans and Meds. East Africans are lumped with the other SSA. Btw there's hardly a Med identity which can make Mediterranean a meaningful category, except maybe if referred to Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece that bear some similarity (but it would not include many other Mediterranean countries as Croatia or Turkey, so Mediterranean would anyway be quite a not appropriate label).

No, one of those medit race advocates sad East Africans are medits with Negroid mixture and listed East Africans as a caucasoid subrace. show us "East African: In the deserts and highlands of Ethiopia, Eritrea, and the Somalilands is found a concentration of several related Mediterranean types, mixed in varying degrees with negroes. To the west these partial whites border on Sudanese negroes; to the southwest the partially Hamitic tribes of Kenya and Uganda form art extension of the peripheral Mediterranean racial area. To the north, the Beja-Bisharin group of Hamitic-speaking nomads connect the East African Hamitic-speaking peoples with their wholly white Egyptian and Berber relatives of North Africa." That man is really a Medit with Negroid mixture , LOL, there is nothing Medit about that Somali
