Someone needs to to send it to all of the wacky blacks who advocate the theory that melanin is a magical substance which is the basis of empathy, compassion, etc.
We have found, in both human and non-human animals, that darker pigmentation is associated with higher levels of aggression and sexuality (and in humans with lower IQ). Lighter pigmentation is associated with the slow reproductive strategy (K) including lower birth rates, less infant mortality, less violent crime, less HIV/AIDS, plus higher IQ, higher income, and greater longevity.
The correlations between human pigmentation, aggression, and sexuality (and IQ), is further supported by the anthropological and sociological research on ‘‘pigmentocracies’’ (Lynn & Vanhanen, 2006).
As far as I know (not an evolutionary biologist), life history theory is used to understand behavioral and other adaptive changes between species. That's telling that they are applying it within subgroups of homo sapiens.
That and the data/papers to back it up -- basically knocked out one of the main foundational pillars of my old bluepilled world view.
When I found out that different people were different that exposed the fact that academic institutions and even my beloved science professors could lie to me. I would almost certainly be in some phd program right now if not for the chain of events that inevitably followed from that little map right there.
