[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1455220, member: 1246"] Mongoloids ??? Really??? "The word is formed by the base word "[URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongols']Mongol[/URL]" and the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffix']suffix[/URL] "[URL='http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-oid']-oid[/URL]" which means "resembling", so therefore the term literally means "resembling Mongols". "The term mongoloid is now considered [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derogatory']derogatory[/URL] by most anthropologists due to its association with disputed typological models of racial classification." "In terms of population, it is the most widely distributed physical type, constituting over a third of the human species." [/QUOTE]
