Mange tak. Jeg er også fra Jylland, Aarhusianer
I dont consider 'White' a good description either, since it on no level indicates physical, genetic or racial characteristics (as a coloristic term - no one is literally white) better than Caucasoid or other terms. I simply use it in some situations, so that people know what I mean.
What terminology do you use instead, on this site? You do recognize Caucasoids are a racial group of significance, and recognize Europeans to be Caucasoid?

Mind if I ask what PIE-descendant stand for? "Pre-Indo-European"? or "Proto-Indo-European"?

It stands for proto-Indo-European, which is the most reduced term of ancestry I can be applied to - before that, and before Cro-Magnids, we're most likely talking the matter of multiregional hypothesis versus the out-of-Africa model or single origin hypothesis (or other proposed origins), which would anyway include more primitive evolutionary stages that had been exceeded at the point in time of the formation of Indo-Europeans as an ethnolinguistic group.
