	:: Regarding "race": I'd say the word is a bit problematic in general. For my understanding, Cylon-Human relationships are actually "interracial", whereas relationships between Capricans and Taurons (or black and white for that matter) are not. One human race and so on. But I'd have no problem renaming the section "Interracial and Interspecies Relationships" for the sake of convenience. -- [[User:Penumbra\|Penumbra]] 07:32, 24 March 2010 (UTC)		:: Regarding "race": I'd say the word is a bit problematic in general.

	::: The article is shaping up quite nicely, and yeah, it's fine to use "heterosexual" and like terms in the analysis section. Also, I'm not sure if we should be using the term "race" to identify ethnicity; I'd not use the word at all, frankly. Ethnicity is a far better term. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.\|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.\|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support\|Donate]] - [[bsp:\|Battlestar Pegasus]]</sup> 15:43, 24 March 2010 (UTC)		::: The article is shaping up quite nicely, and yeah, it's fine to use "heterosexual" and like terms in the analysis section.

			:::: Although the word "ethnic" is far more accurate in both Colony and skin color terms, we haven't heard any Colonials use it. I'm uncertain as to which would be better. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness\|Noneofyourbusiness]] 16:17, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
