No one brought up the very important point that one group of humans tends to try and get close to another group based upon the Breast size and percieved attractivness of the member of that group

Personnally, skin color or culture has never detered me from exploring members of that group whenever possible

The Culturism you speak of Neuro used to be the means used by those in power to keep the lower levels of humanity down and under control. They're not one of us. Unfortunately, this tied culterism very close to rasism for quit some time in the States - some places it's still on-going.
From my perspective, RASISM, as it was known and practiced in the recent past is pretty much dead in the US. The main holdouts that percieve it are mostly those that profit from it. Consequently, I'd have to agree with your point that 1) it's a natural human traite to hang with those like you, and 2) the level of personal wealth also plays a role in who interacts with who. I aint' never gonna take the time to get to know the guy who approaches me on the streed and asks for spare change ... unless ... I become on of the guys that stops people and ask for spare change as well
Overall, I tend to agree with Rick though. Nuke all the bastards, then we won't have to worry about cap and trade taxes, or tailpipe emmisions, or any of that other "Green" crap! lol
BUT, still think it's important to focus on the role breast size, hair color, perceived attractiveness, "ass" parameters, and pheromones play on forming all human interactions
