How much does the prevalenceof curly hair vary throughoutEurope?
I have heard many things about curly hair being associated with African ancestry. Now, there is genetic evidence of varying amounts of DNA from African migrations into Europe, or contact with Phoenicians and the like, in certain regions, but I'm not sure how much to believe it. I want to know if the prevalence of curly hair matches up with the appropriate regions. Is curly hair significantly more common around the Mediterranean and the Balkans than elsewhere in Europe? Edit: I have a pretty sweet head of curly hair too.
Curly hair is found among all Europeans. EVEN some scandinavians have got curly hair. it has nothing to do with "africans" or "races". It's just HUMAN!
What is your thoughts of theprevalence of planning to havechildren outside of marriage?
Has anyone besides me noticed the prevalence of couples planning to have children outside of marriage? I am not talking about unplanned pregnancies. I am not talking about a woman deciding she is ready to have a baby but she is not in a relationship and does not feel she can wait any longer. I am talking about two people in a committed relationship deciding they are ready to have children, yet they are not married. I wanted to know other's thoughts on the subject.
That indeed is a prevalent case nowadays--unmarried people with children. The question is: what is the couple's reason for keeping themselves out of a commitment such as marriage? That one has to be thought of. If they cannot commit themselves to marriage, why would they want to have children? Usually, in the Philippines, others do not get married yet due to economical reasons. But isn't it that having children cost a lot? If the people takes delight on having kids around and at the same time making the set-up convenient for them (i.e. they can get out of the tacit 'relationship' anytime), then wouldn't that be unfair for the children as well?
How can I find the prevalenceof Colorblindness in anindividual state?
I need to find the prevalence of colorblindness within the state of maryland. Where would I go about looking for something like this? Also it must be a scholarly source.
You could try the state board of health site for this. The CDC will break down prevalence by age/gender/race. If the data is available. It will be on the state site.
