to BVKS Sanga, (Krsna) Katha, (ISKCON) Lipa Dalmacija, Prabhupada Said
Regarding your second question, whether a person who is a Negro, Chinese,
Indian, etc. are they different species of life making up the 400,000
species. Yes, so far their body is concerned. Your question whether woman in
each one of these species is another separate species, no, the species means
both man and woman of the same type. Of course, strictly speaking the woman
is taken differently, otherwise how would Krishna say striyo vaisyas tatha
sudras.

From a letter by Srila Prabhupada to Madhudvisa, 10 November, 1975
