White males are neutral human beings and everyone else is a variation

Is it normal to think this way? A 'person' is a white male.

    It is normal. It's also wrong. Everyone sees themselves as normal, therefore whoever writes the book so to speak, defines normal. That said, white males generally won the race gender struggle as far as humanity goes, so our culture places them as default. It's not real though.

    For instance I'm a black guy from an inner city and when I was a kid I figured "minority" meant that black people make up about 40% of Americans... Nope.

    Your baseline is simply a white male. That's fine, so long as you remember that it's completely arbitrary.

    I wouldn't say it's normal or that we are neutral but I admit that when I come across a user profile for the first time I assume a white male by default. There are more men than women on sites like this and I'm surrounded by whites mostly so it's just what I assume first when not thinking much about it.

        No but my people have spent thousands of years ruling all. Building the very foundations of the world that we've allowed you to be part of. (Even though we shouldn't have)

    Did you know that every fetus actually has female genitalia before their biological gender is determined later while in the womb? If the signal is sent to produce a male baby, then the female parts are replaced by male parts. Therefore, every person is by default a female at the very beginning of their development - so, if anything, the neutral human being should be a white female.

    That's a stupid way to think about people, gender and race.

    I believe it depends on the people you're surrounded by and what country you live in, and of course your own race and gender. Most people probably subconsciously think white males are neutral human beings as well due to the popularity of western media.

    It's not normal to divide humans by colour. Are you American or South African? Those two nations seem particularly prone to it with their long history of colour-based segregation.

    Why do people have to talk about race so much?

    • Because it makes people like you uncomfortable.
