GemWolf Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 So, I have noticed (not recently noticed, however) that only caucasions have a vairety of natural hair color (eg: blonde, brown, red, black - then there is the different shades of those colors) and natural hair types (eg, straight, wavey and curly etc).I am not sure why this is, but I do find it interesting to say the least. Asian hair seems to only be straight black hair (natural I mean), Indian hair is also mainly black (sometimes dark dark brown), African or African American is black hair with either tight curls or wavey. Basically all nationalitys aside from caucasion have only a limited hair type/color. This applies to eye color as well. Only caucasions seem to have a vairitey of eye color, with everyone else having only black or brown. I'm not racist and this is certainly not intended to be a racist thread at all. So if I have offended anyone I apologise in advance. It is simply something I find interesting and I am keen to hear what you all think could be the cause of this. I am assuming it has something to do with climate? But I really don't know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 For the longest time I thought I had plain brown eyes. Turns out they're a mix of light brown, green and gold-ish yellow. Very similar to this actually: And as a kid I had blonde hair. As I aged it's shifted to dark ash blonde or something like that. But apparently it still changes in shade with seasons.

DevilBear Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 As a white guy with 1 black friend I feel pretty confident to share my extensive knowledge on the races here. Basically the difference boils down to whether or not your ancestors sided with Jesus during Lucifer's uprising in heaven. White people did. Black people decided to stay neutral, so God turned them black as punishment. It's all right there, plain as day, in the Book of Mormon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vallium Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 "Caucasion" Tends to cover a broader range of nationality, primarily of European and Northern decent. My guess is very pale, light haired, light and/or dark eyed people hail from the north originally, I think a typical person from say Holland evokes the image. Narrow down a country/s of white people and you'll get all the same traits as you would a country/s of black people. In the eend they all "look the same" When you have America you have a mix of cultures and blends, so any "caucasian" person isnt just caucasion but of descent from different countries. Youre also going to get a lot of common traits that you recognize in people, a lot of it has to do with dominant genes and the more dominant a gene is the more likely youre going to see those traits. It all comes down to probability and the recessive genes come into play in the phenotype (physically viewed traits) typically 1/4 of the time (Assuming we have a Dd Dd punnet square...) Most of the time the traits you dont often see are carried in the genes and are able to be passed down to offspring anyways 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glowing Glass Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Jesus fucking Christ there are too many factors and people of different races and genes having sex to make a category for something like this. Ive seen black Asian people with blonde hair and red eyes. Ive seen Indian red heads with purple and blue eyes. Maybe I just live in a really diverse place Maybe science is one step closer to making perfect people :v How people come up with this stuff is beyond me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you may like to know that there are indeed differing genetic traits amongst other races, such as in Africa, their appearance can differ depending on their native background, which is sometimes how different tribes can recognize each other, such as facial bone structure and skin complexion, such as the differences between the Hutsi's and the Tutsi's in Rwanda.

Middle East includes Egypt. North African does not include Somalia, that is east Africa so yeah Africa has some areas with whites. I consider middle easterners to be Caucasian race reminds me of Mean Girls 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
