No, I was just trying to point out how racist you sound. Saying things like "my white friends"? Seriously? I now just realized that you are a very stereotyping person and exactly the kind of person that makes these okCupid releases dangerous. Yikes.

Ooh. The guy has "white friends". He must be such a bad person.
/sigh
Maybe you should go back and read what I wrote one more time. I said that "people in the general public", not "I think that".
1. I know this is pseudo science so I don't read anything into it. 2. Plenty of people have no experience with data science and do not know the difference between causation and correlation.
Can you do me a favor, and stop projecting your issues with political correctness onto me? I'm sorry you've had your difficulties with it in the past, but my comments have nothing at all to do with the topics making me uncomfortable. It's because as a society as a whole, there are many people that will use this type of information to spread hate. If okCupid or anyone else is going to do it, they need to release all of their data publicly at the same time so that there can be a complete and two sided discussion with all the data available.
Lastly...
