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

2019-12-21 22:52:51 UTC  

Deviating from them is easy

2019-12-21 22:52:57 UTC  

but

2019-12-21 22:53:11 UTC  

Mendelian

2019-12-21 22:53:16 UTC  

.... MANDOLORIAN

2019-12-21 22:53:22 UTC  

I think a new one is out?

2019-12-21 22:53:27 UTC  

I do think that skin color has more identified related genes than eye color does

2019-12-21 22:54:16 UTC  

which would indicate to me that there is a greater tendency for a 'median' between parental traits

2019-12-21 22:54:33 UTC  

Ok that’s what I was thinking

2019-12-21 22:54:34 UTC  

since its averaged out over more gene locations

2019-12-21 22:55:34 UTC  

Thank you, Nerthoid... I was beginning to think I was the “human bonds” guy.. I thought my point was articulated 😬

2019-12-21 22:56:09 UTC  

lol, JF didn't get it the way you were putting it, or he's tired

2019-12-21 22:56:40 UTC  

ultimately idk the exact answer, I'm not even sure that there's that much research on it

2019-12-21 22:56:42 UTC  

but

2019-12-21 22:56:48 UTC  

there are more gene locations

2019-12-21 22:56:57 UTC  

so its probably more averaged out

2019-12-21 22:57:17 UTC  

as a median between the two

2019-12-21 22:57:33 UTC  

as compared to eye color

2019-12-21 22:57:55 UTC  

Mixed race couple?

2019-12-21 22:57:58 UTC  

CRINGEEEE

2019-12-21 22:58:05 UTC  

the name is bond, human bond

2019-12-21 22:58:42 UTC  

lmfao i thought the exact same thing when i heard it ^

2019-12-21 22:59:12 UTC  

any human bonds for sale?

2019-12-21 22:59:24 UTC  

this could be the next bitcoin i want to get in on the ground floor

2019-12-21 23:00:03 UTC  

all i could think of the human bond guy was that nobody would want to buy black people's bonds or theyd have negative value due to crime, and then the government would dismantle the human bond schema because it was racist
