Genetics Are Weird, Man

I just read this story. My sister’s younger son was a dead ringer for me when he was a youngster, especially since we were both redheads. (I now have gray hair and he has no hair.) I never heard anything like the remarks in that story when I was out with her and her two sons, except for comments about “your beautiful little red-haired boy.” Granted, he was born when I was in my twenties, so maybe the situation just didn’t look scandalous.

I did have several of my sister’s friends say things like, “So, that’s where the red hair came from.”

I felt like asking, “Why? Where did you think it came from?
