What's More Important: Paternal Line or Majority Ancestry?

[Pribislav]

I can't speak for other ethnicities,they seem to be cuckold nations anyway, but in ex-Yugoslavia if you were say mixed Serb+Croat or vice versa then you are what your father is. Even if you're not mixed ethnically then paternal line is more important.

I know for man who is 3/4 Serbian and 1/4 Croatian (his paternal grandfather was Croatian). He is Croatian ultra nationalist or ustasha.

One my friend is 62.5% Croatian and 37.5% Serb. His father is 3/4 Serb and 1/4 Croatian, and his mother is Croatian.
He feels like 100% Serb, because his paternal line is Serbian.

Also I am not saying ethnicity isnt important but for me culturally male lineage is pretty much absolute, whom you are sired from is very important.

You are directly descended as a male from your male ancestors thousands of years ago, .

I can say the same about my mother's line. You think you don't have dna from them or what?

the same dna that was in your 10x great grandfathers ball sack is in your ball sack and blood

Only Y-dna which is a small part of dna anyway.

50% of you genes come from your father, the other 50% come from your mother. Period.

Identification with paternal line over maternal doesn't make sense genetically, the reasons are cultural. In some cases it's not even true culturally, see jews.

How so? Paternal line doesn't change?

the paternal line doesn't change in male descendants the same way as maternal line doesn't change in female descendants. man inherit the haplogroups from both parents but pass over to his descendants only his Ydna, the mtdna will be inherited from his mother. women inherit only the mtdna from their mother and pass it over to their descendants both male and female

Your mothers line dies with you as a male, nobody inherits titles or land because of their mother. You can be a king and sire a child with a prostitute and your child could still be a legitimate heir if you claim it. If a queen married a jester nobody would recognize her son as the rightful heir.

Exactly, your mother matters for you, but for your kids unless they are females they aren't getting much of that dna.

I'm talking about people in general, not myself (Just like the OP).

They might get some autosomal dna but it's not going to be expressed by their male children most likely, sometimes you see girls who look like their fathers mother, especially if their father looks more like their mom; which is really weird to see.

of course u do get. u always get roughly 50% of your parents dna, meaning aprox 25%(+-) from your grandparents.
