    "Flemish people are predominantly Keltic Nordid" -*LOL*-

    I am a Belgian, who is very much northern to northwestern Flemish up until at least the early 18th century or so and... I am the palest person in my near family. I don't have a single distintively blonde and blue eyed cousin or even second cousin. Look at my avatar. I am dark blonde/light...

    How important are national/ethnic looks to you?

    No, I don't care. One of my best friends (* one of my few friends) is Indian and that might not seem like much, but there are still plenty of prejudices towards people here that are less common where I live and I met her on a international summer camp where I also got along with Costa Ricans...

    Are you vegetarian ?

    No, and I don't plan to be either. Why? Because I try (or plan, as I still live with my parents) to eat local and seasonal and if I were vegetarian, that would mean surviving on carrots and cabbages in winter. I try to eat less meat, as I understand the conventional meat industry is very...

    For Men: Choose the features you are attracted the most

    Why 'for men'? Lesbians exist. I don't care, as long as the person is pretty and has interesting looks. Everyone can be attractive, but I prefer light eyes and slightly wavy/curly hair, full lips and big eyes. I have high standards.

    Is winter ever going to end?

    Probably. Here it's okay right now, still kind of cold, but normal. In fact, snow on easter isn't weird- just rare, and with the in general warmer temperatures of the last years people aren't used to it anymore. But I'm cold quickly, so I can't wait for at least sunny and 15 degrees. I'm getting...

    Is race just a social construct?

    Definitely, unless we would divide populations in 4867532167 races. There is so much diversity in the world. There are for sure places were people look very different form people from other places. You have a blonde, tall, blue-eyed swede with high cheekbones and straight nose, a dark skinned...

    In which region of the world did your blood type originate?

    See, for you it's 'normal' to have that bloodgroup.

    In which region of the world did your blood type originate?

    Even then it isn't exactly likely and normal.

    In which region of the world did your blood type originate?

    B positive here. Not any ancestry from the himalayas though, as far as I know (and it's very unlikely)

    Celts and Curly Hair

    I don't know for sure but I think it's more common in historical flanders (current West- and East-Flanders, where I live) which is logical, is that region had a lot of trade with the british isles in medieval Europe. On several 'red hair maps' that region also has the most redheads of Belgium:

    Celts and Curly Hair

    That's very likely of course, especially were I live and where I see all those straight-haired redheads - Belgium is on the exact border of the germanic world and the celtic world.

    Celts and Curly Hair

    With that reasoning it's indeed kind of wavy, but faaaaaaar from curly obviously and my hair is kind of gingery too.
  14. Gitte

    Celts and Curly Hair

    It's funny you say that because 8 out of ten redheads I know has really straight or at most slightly 'big' wavy hair (like mine, it's isn't straight, but it doesn't have waves either. It just has...Movement)

    How Tall Are You?

    1m66. One cm less than the average height of the Belgian woman and probably the average in my family. Exciting.

    "African genes are dominant"

    And the reason for that is very, very simple. 'African' curly hair, dark eyes and dark hair are all dominant traits. Even if the mixed child is somehow very pale, which rarely happens as skintone mostly mixes and turns out as coffee with milk instead of coffee or milk, they'll automatically look...

    Living DNA results of an Albanian

    In my opinion, you get a surprising big amount of English etc. For an Albanian, except if you say that's somehow right. And I don't think the (small) amount of South Asian is that weird. As you probably know, Roma come from South Asia, and Roma people aren't quite rare in the Balkans, so you...

    Politics What's your political compass result?

    (Oh, this is and old thread...Never mind...) My results: Economic Left/Right: -4.75 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.38 I think that's more less right for me. Near Mahatma Gandhi. Cool.

    Why do people still care about (distant) genealogy?

    If I would do some dna test, it would mostly be to see where I come from - obviously, that's Belgium. As far as I know, at least 5 - 6 generations of my family were simple, Flemish farmers. If there were any interesting tales that would make them not so simple and common I surely would have...

    Intelligence What characterises people with high IQ's ?

    I'm gifted, a kind of hopeless romantic, I love art, can get pretty passionate over things, am extremely extravert once I feel comfortable with someone, but very introvert otherwise. The same with talking: I'm a closed book with people who I don't like, but I can't stop talking in the car when...
