  1. Well one of the arguments for"race is a construct" is that the different genetic groups don't necessarily accurately follow how people group each other based on appearance. South Asians and north Asians are lumped together because of skin color and eye shape but jaw and skull shape puts south Asians closer to black Africans and north Asians closer to white Europeans. Another good one is that west and east Africans aren't especially closely related although they are both lumped in as black. The big black dong stereotype is a west African trait. (Most Black people in America are west) East Africans actually have dong size more in line with Asians. If America was east of Africa instead of west the stereotype would be opposite.
