I think that because there are so many ideas put forth into this piece Dimes, it is difficult to come up with a coherent and effective response. But what I will say, is that before civilizational constructs interrupt our more basal human tribal rape/pillage strength and war based evolutionary cycle so particular to Europe, blonde hair and presumably lighter colored eyes, did indeed spread from their epicenter of the northern germanic/southern scandinavian origin. And women as individuals may make choices that seem completely chaotic, but the aggregate woman, perhaps moreso pre-judeo-dating apps, but even still today, tend to act as a cohesive mass, in that they look for a generally average man who is semi competent, providing, and equal or similar in class or economic standing to themselves, who make them feel at least 50% ish good, some of the time. Right now, the female argument is actually kind of neither here nor there in my mind because their normative female matrix regression-to-the-mean behavior has been completely broken apart by outside propaganizing and internal mating and cultural destruction - divorce culture, state as father, and church destruction are examples I can think of. So women are really struggling today to make any sense of their world, and they are an absolutely constant target of every marketing firm, govt agency, pr op, etc, and this was not even close to the case in the before mass media times.

I have nothing to say about right vs left brain, and cede that portion to other experts.

But I will end with this - I firmly believe that white skin and lighter color eyes are firmly a sexual adaptation, selected for via both men and women. Lighter skin in northern climes also means better vitamin d production, aka no ricketts, and lighter eyes confer better sight around dusk and dawn times, surely advantageous to hunting, but mostly, they are found to be beautiful across the world and that is why these traits have been selected for over the millenia. As for height and brain size, that to me seems to be a holdover from the ice age - fewer in population, each individual more powerful, helps with war, etc. Both of these things are found elsewhere in the world in individual tribes, but they are most commonly co-existing in European populations.

Thoughts?
