This doesn't mean all person with skin type have freckles either.



A more sophisticated study by the University of Kentucky College of Medecine, Department of Molecular and Biomedical Pharmacology, Lexington U.S.


Collin is much better looking than you. better looking to me I don't think so, I have a chiseled Nazi complexion, tall and muscular because I play rugby and picked up bodybuilding in my teens after watching Arnold from Austria. don't doubt because I am paler don't be sad its the truth don't believe we can compare. your a auburn head I am a platinum blonde and I am whiter. and of course that one Australian girl is not albino she is not even close.

this a Australian person which is what is typical in skin tone for them (tan) because its sunny. you post cherry picked pics you cant just show one side of something and hope someone doesn't know the other just like when people post something about Collin you get mad because you know that you can find that look in Ireland but you want people to think they all look pasty when that's not true.

that's why you (not you in general)freckle. most of the time if you don't freckle you have a normal skin tone but in my case I very pale but don't.

I didn't know europeans still fight over whiteness.. Lol that's funny. Let me tell you who is whiter. The "blue people ofKentucky" are so pale that you can see their veins through their skin. So USA wins

Well she is an Australian of Anglo-Celtic descent. I would not be surprised that there are Icelandic women who might look like her. Icelandic people do have some ancestry which originates from the British Isles as well or perhaps you say this because of her "Nordic" blonde hair.

What nonsense is a "Nazi complexion"? Does that mean that you a blond version of Adolf Hitler? I played rugby and football (American) for a very long time as well. What is your point? By the way, by you having platinum-blonde hair means nothing, you could be skin type III as most Icelanders are. Sorry, but facts are facts, both the ethnic Irish and British people are overall, the fairest-skinned Europeans since they have on average lower tanning abilities than continental Europeans (Scandinavians included). Using Collin Farrel doesn't change scientific facts. Scandinavians, Icelanders and we could say Estonians are overall the fairest-haired.

For example Swedish athlete Carolina Kluft has platinum blonde hair but tans well.

A Swedish doctor, by the name of Mikael Sandstrom look how he tanned! He himself said on Swedish TV, that his bronze look isn't the product of tanning beds, but rather the result of a two weeks vacation to the Caribbean.

Funny you say that.

I grew up in Southern California, and if you remember the map I posted earlier in this thread comparing relative hours of sunlight yearly in the US versus Europe....Southern Cal is part of the region that gets the MOST sunlight of all.

God, how I HATED that.

I burn easily so the sun is not my friend, even if the rest of my wacky family all prefer hot weather. In fact, I hate the sun completely...having fair skin, light eyes, and mydriatic pupils all contribute to my sensitivity to sunlight. I will wear shades when most people won't.

Anyway, sometimes you grow up somewhere only to find that later in your life, your goal is to live in a climate COMPLETELY opposite to it.

This is why we're moving to Anchorage, Alaska in June.

Oh well think a little bit, it won't hurt. A good number of very fair-skinned or very light-complexioned people have freckles, especially red-heads as myself. However there are also people with brown or dark hair who have freckles. Both the MC1R and the IRF4 genes are associated with very fair skin, freckling and increased sensitivity to UV light. Both genes are commonest amongst ethnic British and Irish populations.

IRF4 gene linked to the combination of brown/dark hair, blue eyes and a freckled complexion. It has been called by Icelandic scientists as the Irish phenotype, since that's where it is most common. It is also found in the Icelandic, as well as other European populations.

Example:

MC1R linked to the characteristic of red hair (including strawberry blonde), freckled-complexion, light eyes.

Blonde hair is also found in high frequency amongst the ethnic Estonians who are related to the Finnish people. However, there is Germanic blood which came with the Swedes, Teutonic knights, Swedes again.

The mutation of the combination of blonde/light/fair hair and blue eyes, most likely arose in the Baltic region, before spreading northwards into Scandinavia and then elsewhere in Northern and Central Europe.

Nevertheless, an ancient Northeast Asian genetic component brought by Uralic, Finnic speakers to Europe from Siberia is found in a small measure among Estonians and especially the people of Finland (10% according to the National Geographic Genographic Project.) and amongst the Saami people of the very north. We also see people like that as individuals in the Nordic countries too.

you believe the doctor? well something agrees to what you think you think its true but he has fake tan on.

does adolf look like a Nazi to you? no. I have a chiseled complexion Hitler doesn't have that. type III the commonest I don't think so. Come to Iceland. like you said 63% of our females and 25% of our males are celtic ( celtic is supposedly all type II people.) we are majority type II and Type I but since you don't like it you say what you want come to Iceland and well see and so I can see that your a supposed ginger which I never believed and I bet your short and scrawny. ( although I don't see the difference in hair and skin color but I do see the difference of eye color) she and the kid have platinum hair from sun bleaching. American football is a ***** version of rugby. this Irish guy is quit dark but he is not Irish right. no more than 40% of British isles carries the gene for red hair. there are also other red hair genes and they only affect hair the same way blonde hair does. the gene for blonde that we know of only affects hair but I have a broken mc1r gene which is on the 16 chromosome and everybody has it the difference is if it is mutated. gingers have a mutated gene which makes it a disease technically because you have a mutated gene but many gingers have brown or hazel which makes up 50% of the eye color of gingers and many scientists agree that the mc1r gene only really affects hair, skin and freckles. I have a broken mc1r gene which causes me have to blonde hair ( no eumelanin, and no pheomelanin) same chromosome different affects.
