    How is this?
    My Father had brown eyes
    My Mother has brown/hazel eyes
    My oldest sister has brown eyes
    My other older sister has blue eyes
    I have blue/grey eyes

    None of us are adopted!

    Again, YORE MA has been cheating on YORE DA since the birth of their eldest daughter. You must confront her in a fight to the death.

    It has to do with dominant and ressesive (sp?) genes

    Nah Brown's dominant so they should be brown in that case too.

    Recessive gene I think. Always marry an Asian woman to be sure.

    biko beat me too it.

    as for the other bits
    grey eyes are genetically the same as blue
    and green are genetically brown

    The fact that they all have dark skin & afro hair-dos, & you are as white as nun's inner thigh with ginger hair tells you nothing then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,109 ✭✭✭Sarn


    Basically if both parents are heterozygous brown/blue, with brown being dominant they would have brown eyes but it is possible for the two recessive blues from each parent to combine to give a blue eyed child.

    Still....I'd probably hire a private investigator..

    Recessive Genes can pop up at any time, just not most of the time. I would just say you are a freak.

    Yep.

    Both my parents had dark hair and the milk man around these parts in the 70's was ginger.
    I'm ginger.


    Ask your neighbours if you resemble an old postman or milkman.

    There's no milkman factor in that picture.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭matt-dublin


    what colour eyes does the postman/butcher/mailman or neighbour have?

    like my mate...
    all of his siblings have been bleesed with illuminous red hair and reseble the lids of fanta bottles, yet he has the darkest black hair ever...

    im waging 3-1 on the milkman or window cleaner

    It has to do with dominant and recessive genes... Check your grandparents eye colours.
