When a black man and a white woman have a child, does the child become white? If a white man and a black woman have a child, does the child become black?

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.

Other examples.

It’s stupid AF. lol.

Regardless, just love the kids.

Seal is a Black man and had children with his ex. Heidi Klum, a White woman.

Why would that make sense to you?
