last goldenhairs.
the beeb had a strange article referring to german experts determining that blondes might become extinct in 200 years. a combination of the recessive gene for blonde hair along with the usage of blonde hair dye amongst non-blondes attracting blonde-lovers away. (no mention of hair dye increasing the likelihood of cancer, naturally (pun intended), but anyways...)
seems a bit extreme to me, since it's not a regressive gene or obvious defective trait. that said, i don't think it's time to resurface that strange nazi edict to preserve the aryan race by having all the blond boys and blond girls go to cottages between school semesters and fuck like minxes to produce the master race (was it ledensborn?).
the funny thing: the article refers to this:
Researchers predict the last truly natural blonde will be born in Finland - the country with the highest proportion of blondes.
i'll agree to that. anytime i've gone back to finland, there are enough blonde-haired and blue-eyed pale moley cheekboney people to last until the end of time. that and everybody looks just like me. freaking scares me since i'm used to either a multicultural environment or just one or two main cultures. however, if it's time to meet a finn female to keep the golden locks flowing, so be it.

Hrmmm...I have cousins who are half-Finnish and their mom is a blonde, but they are not. So much for giving back to the Finn gene pool.
At least beers will still be blonde.
And you're not that pale. In fact I don't think you're very pale at all.
When you think about it, aren't people better off possessing a bit of pigment anyway considering global warming, the hole in the ozone layer, the increase in the rate of skin cancer and all that?
