"That website is obviously very slanted against Steve Sailer, and engages in a smear campaign rather than rebutting him legitimately."
while i agree with you they do try to show him off as a racist,they "rebuting him legitimately"

In his original 1997 article, "Is Love Colorblind", Steve Sailer takes a look at interracial marriages and the disparity among the Blacks and Asians, and concludes Black women and Asian men are losing out of the marriage picture. Among the Asian community, he claims based on 1990 Census stats, there are 200,000 more Asian women married than Asian men, thus creating a wife shortage for Asian American males.
Among the three factors to dissect regarding his perceived inferiority of Asian Males (Steve's points in italics, our response below his).
1) White males (5'11" average) are taller than Asian males (5'7" average).
Being a white male himself, is it natural Steve would like to hype up the masculinity of white males. Height is often co-related to masculinity, and men tend to overexaggerate and lie about height. The fact is, the average height of an adult white male is 5'9 1/2" (176.5 cm), as determined by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, a far more objective and unbiased source. In our first email conversation with Steve about height, his initial response was sending a lengthy article from Time magazine detailing how the average height of a Dutch male in the Netherlands (Holland) is 6'0". While this is true, the Dutch are so small in numbers (15 million in the Netherlands) in such a small country going through a natural population decline, they have a negligible effect on the average height of White Europeans.
In the 1980s, a 5'7" average for Asian American males was typical for a whole generation of Asians who were malnourished during their growing years in Asia, caused by decades of war. As younger generations were better fed with high protein diets in Asia and America, the height difference narrowed. Nowadays, it is typical for Asian males to be as tall as White males, possibly with a minimal (less than 2 inch) average height difference. Among upper genetic height potential, Asians can meet and surpass the tallest Whites in natural height (e.g. the 7'5" Yao Ming, the numerous Chinese basketball 7-footers).
2) There are 200,000 more Asian women than Asian men married in America, thus causing a wife shortage for Asian males.
Steve did not take into account the Asian military bride factor (American GI soldiers marrying and bringing home an Asian wife while stationed in Asia) and the Asian mail order bride factor, which more than compensates for the additional 200,000 Asian women in America married. Data gathered from the U.S. Department of Immigration and Naturalization Services.
3) Asian males are losing out on the mating game to White males.
This is one of Steve's most stupid writings. The population of Eastern Asia (China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, ...) is over 1.5 billion, which is numerically the largest group in the world. How in the world did Asian males populate this planet to over 1.5 billion if Asian males are losing out on the mating game, as Steve suggests?
Once again, Steve is beaten by his own Darwinist philosophy where only the strong will survive. First, the worldwide population of White Europeans, primarily in North America, Europe, Russia, and Australia, is only 800 million, nowhere near the worldwide population of East Asians. Second, among the major racial groups in the world (Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, East Asians, South Asians, Middle Easterners), the white race is the only race whose birth rates are so low that they are facing a natural NEGATIVE population growth. Every other racial group is expected a population increase in the next decade. Obviously, there are alot of White males who aren't enjoying the fruits of the mating game as Steve wants us to believe. By his own Darwinist philosophy, white males are the victims losing out on the mating game and doomed to extinction in this cruel world.
