Genetics is, in fact, a science, and it allows for offspring to grow to be bigger than their parents.
Especially if the parent has a condition that stunts their growth.
Nobody tell him…
This is hilarious, but I had a friend when I was really young. He was black and adopted by a white family. He got this joke (or not a joke) all the time and I could see it wear on him
Not to mention it actually does happen by birth very rarely. Latent genetic traits can pop up generations later.
I dated someone in high school whose family was all Irish levels of white and their brother looked like he popped straight out of Puerto Rico. He otherwise looked like everyone else in the family, to the point there was no doubt he was a child of both parents. There were a few other people throughout their family with the same deal. When they introduced me to him they said, “This is Collin, he’s not adopted or anything, he just got lucky.”
Not pictured: the tall Amazonian woman that’s his mother.
Whatever the political motives/lack of logic behind it, these faces look like they are related by blood.
Geneticist here. There are a number of factors that go into determining a person’s facial features. Genetics, of course, play a huge role. But other things such as …
Same nose, same eye-shape, similar chin, and rapidly rushing towards similar hairlines. If these two aren’t related, that’s a huge coincidence.
Also, childhood malnutrition is a bitch and will absolutely cause something like this.
Yup. There are a million causes for stunted growth that aren’t inherited. And these two look the same if you overlook the height and age.
Also sometimes genes pass down and skip a generation or two. I have the same general build and height of my great grandfather (though I’m more robust) but his own sons look closer to my great grandmother.
Didn’t know Genetics was so insecure they would project their own insecurities onto others.
You can only do so many paternity tests before you start seeing the world differently.
The dommy mommy of the short king gratified the wall in the background (and yes, I do mean that she is just that tall, and named Laura).
🤣
