Their kids look like this:

These kids are neither White/Black, they’re them, mixed/biracial/whatever you’d like to label it. They are uniquely them.

Plus, less progressive societies usually, incorrectly, believe the man has the stronger genes. So this isn’t even a widely held belief. A common belief is that the father decides the race, which is stupid.

Clearly, this is a mixed bag. You never know what you will get.

No! Genetics are a roll of the dice.

Regardless, just love the kids.
