Idk why the obsession with skin color, but there are fewer fair skin people in the world than dark skinned

2019-12-21 22:47:47 UTC  

he's asking about how skin color is inherited

2019-12-21 22:47:51 UTC  

Much greater harms will result from mixing than just color change, the loss of ethnic identity is horrific

2019-12-21 22:47:53 UTC  

basically

2019-12-21 22:48:00 UTC  

white skin is attractive..

2019-12-21 22:48:07 UTC  

thats one reason lel

2019-12-21 22:48:24 UTC  

i don't even get the weird obsession with tanning

2019-12-21 22:48:26 UTC  

just why

2019-12-21 22:48:27 UTC  

and whether some alleles are dominant over others

2019-12-21 22:48:36 UTC  

tanning is very low status behavior

2019-12-21 22:48:38 UTC  

ew

2019-12-21 22:48:39 UTC  

for skin

2019-12-21 22:48:41 UTC  

Billions of lost souls on the planet, ripe for being brought into the abrahamic fold and given a purpose: serving the chosen people

2019-12-21 22:49:04 UTC  

@Nerthulas exactly. I just want to know if when people say “white skin is recessive” if they’re right, bc in my experience most mixed race people I see are pretty evenly split

2019-12-21 22:49:12 UTC  

he's just asking a scientific question

2019-12-21 22:49:17 UTC  

well

2019-12-21 22:49:18 UTC  

josh

2019-12-21 22:49:30 UTC  

skin color is not coded for by one gene

2019-12-21 22:49:36 UTC  

thousands

2019-12-21 22:49:41 UTC  

its not a mendelian trait

2019-12-21 22:49:49 UTC  

just but say you mix the numbers 0 and 1..... you're not going to get 0 or 1 back

2019-12-21 22:50:04 UTC  

@Nerthulas I’ve read that. Pls keep elaborating. We are getting somewhere

2019-12-21 22:50:06 UTC  

youll get 0.4-0.6

2019-12-21 22:50:36 UTC  

Is it not a clear thing such as blue eyes being recessive?

2019-12-21 22:51:11 UTC  

beyond that, I can't tell you whether any of the genes which code for light skin are dominant or recessive over those which code for dark skin

2019-12-21 22:51:21 UTC  

tho maybe there is research on this

2019-12-21 22:51:23 UTC  

but

2019-12-21 22:51:32 UTC  

blue eyes are the exception, not the rule

2019-12-21 22:51:36 UTC  

its not as clear as youd think

2019-12-21 22:51:40 UTC  

it is coded for by way more alleles than eye color is

2019-12-21 22:51:41 UTC  

theres still lots of genes for eye color

2019-12-21 22:51:46 UTC  

yeah

2019-12-21 22:51:51 UTC  

that's true Fugue

2019-12-21 22:51:55 UTC  

23andme think i should have dark eyes

2019-12-21 22:52:02 UTC  

@Nerthulas so people who say dark skin is dominant can’t be sure of that?

2019-12-21 22:52:38 UTC  

the dominant/recessive thing for eyes was really based on observation of reproduction before it was based on knowledge of the genes

2019-12-21 22:52:41 UTC  

White and black are rather pure colors

2019-12-21 22:52:43 UTC  

so Fugue is right

2019-12-21 22:52:44 UTC  

when your're dealing with thousands of genes, we're talking about degrees of dominance and in which direction

2019-12-21 22:52:51 UTC  

its not strictly Mendelian
