This is a definition of for those without a dictionary at home.
You'll need to define context in use. Are you referring to mate pairing between "whites" and "colored" people or something else?
Another dictionary puts it as people of different races breeding. So a gook fucking a nigger is also miscegenation.
It's from latin roots. Miscere -- to mix -- and genus -- race. (Yes, I had to look that up.)
Given that, I don't think it's too crazy a question. It depends where you draw the line as to what constitutes a race or how strictly you interpret the root word, genus.
If I used the wrong word in the question, that's a semantics issue. The question I'm raising here is whether can also be applied to interbreeding between different European lineages.
I guess I should have linked the previous thread in this post to begin with but I'm lazy.
> *Do you believe people of mixed European descent are miscegenated? Why or why not? *
No. All evidence shows that humans from different ethnic groups are indeed able to produce reproductive viable offspring. The conclusion, Homo-sapien isn't a race unto themselves, but indeed a genus. A genus that has demonstrated a disturbing ability to adapt to most of the worlds habitats and space, to a certain degree.
However, fixating on "race" will distract you from culture and psychology. You might not like what you discover when you journey down that particular path, especially when it reveals the broader implications of r/K selection theory in regards to human civilization.
I'm at a point where I suspect that miscegenation cannot be conducted by means of genetics, but by means of cultural and physical conditioning. Earth cannot sustain r selection in any species for particularly long periods of time, but it has an insanely horrifying way of ensuring K selection in a species of predators endures and unfortunately, humans are apex predators who're surrounded by rabbit-ized masses of dysfunctional psychologies pleading to be culled.
