This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm on your level. People get really weird about milk despite the fact that the majority of people consume animal flesh on a daily basis. Milk is way low on the weird food scale.

We've been eating animals a few million years longer than drinking their milk. (Lactose intolerance is far more common than generally thought.)

Take another look at your map there, because it backs me up.

Here's another, lactose Tolerance (notice Tolerance with a T) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance#/media/File:Lactose_tolerance_in_the_Old_World.svg It shows pretty much only Northern European heritage, iffy if you're southern European, and pretty much everyone is out of luck.

You said if you're Asian. It's not only if you're Asian.

Sigh this will be my last attempt at explaining.

When you say "... If you're asian lol." you are saying that you are lactose intolerant ONLY if you are Asian. And you are saying that everyone that is not Asian is lactose Tolerant. That is how "... If you're asian lol." is read and understood by 99.999999999% of people (everyone except you it seems).

You're more like the dude who's telling someone with a bullet wound to head that they need to see the doctor while they're at the hospital.
