Sir Harry Johnston: "In both sexes, the development of the external sexual organs is large - larger than in the European (white) race, more considerable than among the Mongoloid yellow races of Asia, America, and Pacific". (British Central Africa, pg. 399, 1898).

Serres: "One of the characteristics of the race consists in the length of the virile black organ as compared with that of the Caucasian race. This dimension coincides with the length of the uterine canal in the Ethiopian female and both have cause In the form of the pelvis in the Negro race. The results from this physical disposition that the union of the Caucasian man with an Ethiopian woman is easy and without inconvenience for the latter. The case is different in the union of the Ethiopian (black) with a Caucasian woman...." (Quoted by P. Broca in Phenomena of Hybridity in the Genus Homo, pg. 28, 1864).
==Factual Inaccuracy==


From the citations of the experts above, a white woman should experience a measure of discomfort or pain when intercourse with a black man. But she does not. At least, testimony concludes that she craves it. In fact the white women say they feel better. Why is this so?
=== How to Identify Factual Inaccuracies ===


In the black man, the greater quantity of the disc-shaped molecules and their floral odour excite the pineal gland of the white woman to release more endorphins and melatonins. These substances act as tranquilizers to the white woman thereby preventing any discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse with the black man. Hence her feeling of euphoria (better feeling).
Any statement that:


Havelock Ellis says: "I am informed that the sexual power of the Negroes are slower ejaculation are the cause of the favour with which they, are viewed by some white women' of strong sexual passions in America...." (Studies in the Psychology of Sex, vol. 3, pg. 238, 1913).
The slower ejaculation of the black man allows the body of the white woman to absorb more molecules from the black man. This takes her to the pennacle of sexual intercourse.
I. Schapera tells of African men who ˜sometimes' have coitus six or seven times in "succession" in one night. (Married Life in African Tribe, pg. 185, 1941).
Dr. Jacobs X. confirms this. He says, "such an exploit would render a white man dizzy" (L'Art d'Aimer aux Colonies. pp.149-150, 1927). This adds greatly to the white woman's pleasure.
But the black man's sexual prowess, physical stamina and athletic adroitness are not the only characteristics compelling the white ˜woman's preference or black men. As the original man, God endowed him with wisdom, and knowledge to educate the entire world. The black man is the originator of the sciences and the liberal arts.
Blackness is not a curse but a blessing. The doctrines of white superiority, Ham's curse, low mental aptitude, of blacks, absence of blacks to world civilization, all have been confuted in this book.

Shit could be worse.
If FactCat says it, then it are a fact.
FactCat knows it because FactCat edited the Wikipedia article on it.
A Fact provided by Winston Churchill

A highfalutin' term for making shit up. Throwing one of those around could land yourself in Internet court. Before saying that an opinion is a fact please consult the following source and consider it's message before using phrases like "it's a fact" as an order to us for subscribing to your opinions. This sentence = not fact, just opinion, lulz points deducted.[1] It would do well to remind internet pundits the difference between a fact and an opinion.

A fact is a piece of text pasted from a Wikipedia article.[citation needed] In the past a fact was something that could be objectively verified as real, according to the standards of proof demanded by logical positivism and scientific realism. The invention of The Internet made the external justification of facts using peer-reviewed research and education irrelevant, replacing them with a plethora of reliable, electronic means of verification. For a list of facts, see the article on common knowledge.
