Darwin vs. Amber

Seth: Did you know that Darwin thought Black people were less evolved?

Amber: That's crazy.

Seth: Did you know that Darwin also thought women to be less evolved than men?

Amber: He was a jackass.

amber's funny.

What I don't get is how he came to this conclusion. Did he come to this conclusion because men's emotions are more level and that was somehow more advanced/evolved? What is more evolved about men? Any ideas?

I agree with both of your comments, Amber. :)

I don't really get his conclusion either. However, haven't there been studies and such that have shown women to be better at some things and women better than men?

I wonder if the Black community knows of Darwin's conclusions? I wonder if Darwinism would be so enthusiastically taught in P.S. if they knew his thoughts on evolution...

It is no wonder that Hitler and Nietzsche loved Darwin. Hitler even quoted a big chunk of Origin in Mein Kampf.
