Correlating blond with pure white is BULLSHIT . Black Africans , Mongoloid Asians blond hair?

1. Blonde Hmongs=some Internet pics that appeared on the net five years ago (I am not saying that they are fake, but its very rare)

2. The kid you posted is not Papuan, but Melanesian and specifically Solomon Islander and it is in this island of Melanesia called Solomon Islands that blond hair is the most dominant.

Light hair in Europeans is attributed so far to five receptors (the most important one being MC1R) and due to many independent mutations in these receptors. I know blond hair in Melanesians is attributed to mutatation in one receptor (TYRP1) not found in Europeans, but it is not like Europeans or other West Eurasians have light hair is due to one mutation.

edit: I have just read that there are polymorphisms associated with hair and iris color in Europeans in TYRP1 receptor

This one is K4 (4 stands for African American, West Eurasian, East Asian and Amerindians, on K5 Melanesian component emerges)

Don't you think it is interesting that such a distant population shows that much, but large amount of it is probably very very ancient!? You can see using latest tool by Hellenthal et al. that Melanesians in particular again show minor ancestry from Europe, Eurasia and Indian gotten there sometime from 700CE and 1500CE according to the software which can calculate admix only in the last 4000 years (not to mention what they would get if 4000 year barrier is surpassed).

3. Indians have West Eurasian ancestry

4. Amerindians have West Eurasian ancestry going by recent papers (of course you being low level amateur rejected this), but the girl you posted is albino

Not to mention that some may have a distanced Northern European relative during colonial time

(Reasonably) pure white race can be defined as consisting of the groups in which babies are normally born with light hair (a statistically residual deviation of 1-2% is not significant).

Just look at Gypsies in places like Romania or Spain: the grown-ups may have about the same skin and hair colour as the local Whites, but there are striking differences as for the youngest children. This is where the line has to be drawn.

Blondism and light features are the aftermath of climate adaptation. Its not exclusive to whites as already mentioned. Although majority of the blondes in the world are indeed white people.


The guy on the right is a family member and he is south asian.

Btw, not to nit pick on minor details... you have to take the info passed along through these sort of maps with a grain of Salt.

I would say that its highly improbably that people of Turkey, Iran and India are of similar Skintone.

No, this map is accurate, and there is a big difference between Turkey, and India, and a more minor one with Iran.

What is it with the vast majority of people correlating blond and very pale white skin with PURE WHITENESS? Where as darker haired, swarthy skin European are considered mixed with Arabs, Gypsies ect. I don't know why but it seems like ( not only European but even-non european ) most people thinks that blue eyes/blonde hair is prove of 100% European heritage.

Why don't people understand that blond hair and very pale white skin is just a adaption and mutation to the the north European climates?





Somewhat should use media or education channel to promote the world to think about the facts that pale white skin + with blonde hair/blue eyes does not = pure white


Blonde hair a mutation that happens in every race in the planet

1) Hmong




2) Papuan



3) Australian aborigine




4) Indian



5) Amerindian

Ok, you made a good point. Nevertheless the vast majority of blondes in the world are of European descent.
In Europe, blond hair is usually linked to a fairer skin than is the case with brunets and lighter eyes as well. Thus, the "pure" White tag was given to it. The area of maximum blondism is found in southeast Norway, in the inland parts of the Agder region and central parts of Estonia, these areas have had very little to no mixing with non-Europeans in times past in comparison to areas of Southern Europe such as Southern Italy, Greece, Southern Spain, Albania, Bulgaria where mixing with non-Europeans ( Turks, Moors, Arabs, etc...) dates for centuries and we can see the comparatively higher levels of dark and black hair and dark eyes. The only areas of Europe where a substantial number of brunets are definitely lighter-skinned, just as light-eyed and tan less than blondes is the British Isles. The reason why this happens is linked to the high frequency of red hair genes in the populations there. The red hair genes weaken the skin defence against UV light, giving rise to a much paler skin and at the same time increase the tendency for skin to freckle.

still blondensss tend to be mostly a white thing
