I'm not trying to be racist. I'm just curious about the demographics on this forum. :)

I'm struggling to figure out how White, Black, Hispanic and Asian are races.

Lets sayyy I'm from Afghanistan. Does that make me black or white? Coz some Afghans have really really light skin, but in general we have tanned skin. WHERE'S THE OPTION FOR ORANGE!

EDIT: OHHHH I got it, I'm an 'Other'.

It's really not that hard to quantify..., but I believe that being raped once is not as bad as being raped five times, even if the one rape was by a gang of people.
