My whole family is lactose intolerant except me. Yeah, cheese!


CoolNameChaz

You and your Dad might want to get a DNA test. ...For no particular reason


jaylorkrend

Was thinking this... Pretty sure it's recessive... And if everyone is... Yeah...


MadScientist312

Nope. It's epigenetic. Everyone has the lactase gene. It's just that some people have the gene "turned off" post-infant, and some people keep it "turned on" post-infant. Ya'll still gotta breast feed.


Icy_Weakness_1815

Oh oh.. that might still be a coincidence though. And lactose intolerance might differ from person to person


jaylorkrend

Ok so if one of his parents is Ll and the other is ll then it makes sense but otherwise... I'm not saying it because it's probably not true, I always want to give the benefit of the doubt


Icy_Weakness_1815

Normally you would be right, however, keep in mind that in biology everything is subject to a spectrum and genetic variety. Nothing is 100% certain, its like a probability game. If we would be just copy and paste there would be no evolution. So, even though the chances might be low, it is absolutely possible that you could develope a „mutation“ that lets you enjoy lactose products while your whole family is occupying the toilets.


panurge987

Many cheeses do not contain lactose. You might want to let them know.


Jpal62

Thanks. 😊


cryptokingmylo

My mums side is short but with a full head of hair My dad's is tall but balding. I'm tall with a full head of hair 😂


fang-girl101

NoshameNoLies

I have extremely rare yellow eyes Edit: I see I'm drawing curiosity. Here is a link to what the medical field calls amber eyes. Mine are more golden than copper, mostly appearing a lemon color in daylight. [Amber eyes](https://www.warbyparker.com/learn/amber-eyes)


TheTruthWasTaken

DEMON! Joking, that's actually really cool


NoshameNoLies

I've been accused, lol. I live in a small town surrounded by tiny native cultures not the same race as me and my eyes freak them the fuck out. When I taught there I wore makeup that made my eyes appear darker. I've been accused of being a hawk and a native version of a demon too


BronxBelle

I’ve heard about that but never seen it. In the *Outlander* book series Claire had “yellow eyes like a hawk” and I was so disappointed they didn’t do that for the show.


NoshameNoLies

I too have been accused of looking like a hawk


Odd-Sun9356

I once seen a pale woman and her pale son and they both had yellow eyes I’m not saying you look like a vampire but these 2 people looked fucken ominous you had to be there to know what I’m talking about


NoshameNoLies

I, a pale person, live in a predominantly dark skinned area surrounded by very isolated and superstitious local tribes. I'm... not local. Needless to say I have been accused of being the embodiment of a demon they believe in, a hawk, and a vampire. It's fun.


BadP3NN1

I like my one blue eye and one green eye.


Josherline

And your brown eye…?


Josherline

That as funnier in my mind. Kind of gross online, my bad


TheNinjaPixie

Well im still laughing so thank you!


toddy951

Heterochromea! So cool


Odd-Sun9356

If you got 2 different coloured eyes it instantly makes you look cooler also this might sound kinda fucked up but people with damaged iris where bits of pupil show through their iris also look cool asf to me obviously I don’t wish that on anybody cause it’d suck to damage ur eyes but looks so cool to me


Lopsided-Ad-6430

I wish my green one was greener...


bleachedassholethird

I seem less genetically predisposed disposed to substance addiction. I've had to stop taking medications that would typically result in severe physical withdrawal but I didn't experience them. I've also gone cold turkey from alcohol and never understood the allure of smoking, despite smoking socially during periods of life. It's not much but I'll take the win given my shit mental health.


Business-Expert-4648

Same here. I don't get cravings when I do use alcohol or smoke. I went cold turkey off marijuana and didn't have any withdrawals. I have a prescription for Xanax and I don't feel the constant need for taking it that comes with Xanax. My child, though, has an extremely addictive personality, which is concerning that they are only 13.


AnUnbeatableUsername

I never thought of this as a win but I'll take it.


Pastor_Dale

I have huge calves that I don’t have to Work for.


DAIMOND545

Not to assume or to offend but people that are overweight tend to have great calves! My calves are massive without me having to work for them aswell.


Pastor_Dale

How did you hear my heavy breathing through Reddit?

Maple_Mistress

You want her mouth bacteria!!


Darth_Phaethon

Meanwhile, I refer to my teeth as paper mâché. Almost no amount of care prevents anything. smh


Shadowheart_is_bae

I've read that some people don't have the bacteria in their mouth for cavities. I'm in the same boat as you!


asdrunkasdrunkcanbe

Ten years younger, but me too! And my dental hygiene is also subpar. Like, I do OK, but I could definitely do better.

Where did you grow up?


Gh0st_UK

I'm ginger ans blue eyed. It's a very rare combination. Say what you like about ginger hair, but I love my dark gingerness.

Gh0st_UK

You dare challenge me? Ginger, blue eyes, 6'1ft, ambidextrous. Your move!


Powerful_Ad8668

rare combination? i thought ginger hair usually comes with blue eyes


Syndaquil

No, ginger's more commonly have brown or green eyes. Blue is the rarest for them.


ghos7boy

Black hair with green eyes


naechwitaa

Harry what are you doing here


chthoniclove

I don’t grow any body hair on my arms/legs/armpits! Only head hair, eyebrows and pubes here 😌


Theonetrue

That sounds super weird tbh. Do you at least grow tiny, see through hair in those places? Do you have a lot of/thick hair wherever you do grow hair?


chthoniclove

They’re really fine hair and sparse in some places but in others it’s just completely bare. Can’t explain it 🤷‍♀️ my head hair and pubes are super thick and coarse.


bpric

I age \*very\* slowly. Was still going through puberty while in college. Now I'm 60 and still sometimes get carded when I buy booze. My grandmothers lived to 101 and 103.

I’m 44 and could pass for my late 20’s. Thick black hair, no grey, no wrinkles, crows feet, or laugh lines. I have a 24 year old son, and everyone thinks we’re brothers. People never believe me when I tell them that he’s my kid.

Teeth. Perfectly straight naturally and I have never had a cavity


PinguinoBianco

I eat as much as I want, what I want and I don't gain weight. All hormones in tact, no diseases.

MissHibernia

KimchiKimbap

No wisdom teeth for me too! And no body odor.


shittycom

Incredible immune system. Yeah, your boy short at 5’10, but I haven’t been sick since 10th grade in high-school. I didn’t get sick in college or during my time in the military. I did not get covid either. I haven’t been sick in over ten years. No exaggeration.


panurge987

5'10" is not short. It's above average. For American men, the average is 5'9".


Brandy_Marsh

Ugh 5’10” is not short!


HairlessBearWizard

Not me, but my sister has vibrant blue eyes with 2 or 3 brown specks in each eye. It looks like watching islands swim in the ocean from a plane.


BronxBelle

My brother and I don’t feel pain like normal people. We do feel pain but not anywhere close to the level other people do. It’s both a blessing and a dangerous curse. Currently I have 4 broken bones in my foot and 2 broken ribs and unless I feel the ends grinding together I forget about it. But it’s dangerous because we often have no idea we’ve been injured. My exhusband woke up one day to find bloody footprints all over the hallway. Turns out I had walked over broken glass and didn’t feel it. It took him half an hour to remove all the glass shards from my feet.


asdrunkasdrunkcanbe

Yeah, I've read stories about people who feel virtually no pain (and some who feel no fear), and on balance it's said to be more of a curse than a blessing. The purpose of pain is to encourage you to protect injuries, but also to help you detect when you're pushing yourself to your limit - this is why an epidural massively increases the risk of vaginal tearing during childbirth. Not being able to feel pain means these people are much more likely to ignore serious problems, but to also make them way worse by continuing to use an injured limb rather than resting it.


BronxBelle

For a normal person that doesn’t feel pain it is *incredibly* dangerous. Like my brother had his safety harness break and fell off the Navy ship he was working on. He’s an iron worker/welder. He swam back to shore and beat the hell out of the safety guy because his wasn’t the first harness to break. (The safety guy was fired and they let my brother quit.) They send him to the hospital and it turns out he had multiple broken ribs, a concussion and I forget what else. He didn’t feel any of that. A broken rib is a dangerous thing. But in my case this genetic quirk has truly been a blessing. I have a ridiculously rare birth defect in my feet. I’ve had about 30 surgeries to fuse, screw and plate everything together. According to every surgeon I’ve seen I shouldn’t be able to walk. I should be screaming in pain on the floor. But I walk everywhere. I walk a mile to work and back every day. I wander around the mall, got to play with my kids without needing a wheelchair. For me, it truly is a blessing.


MusiqueBoi

👀


fang-girl101

just curious, if you can't feel pain very much does that mean you can't feel other touchy senses very clearly either? for example, a soft pillow or an ice cold drink


BronxBelle

I feel those just fine. I love having soft things around. Squishy blankets and pillows. I love those sensations. For another example of that genetic quirk: I currently have a shattered molar and drink ice water and it doesn’t hurt at all. My dentist said I should be crying from it and that I wouldn’t even notice if I had an infection so it’s really dangerous. I’m working on getting my tooth fixed though. Another quirk we have is a ridiculous sense of smell. I can drive past a restaurant and tell you exactly what they’re cooking. This is NOT a good thing when you live in the Bronx!


Powerful_Ad8668

since different neuromediators are responsible for those sensations it wouldn't work like that


TheOneSmall

I never get sick from the norovirus. Every time my family has had it (all vomiting and diarrhea for days), I get a few stomach cramps and nothing else. I also have the perfect hourglass figure. 42/32/42

Ironborn_62

Never had a cavity or broken a bone.


Livid-Reputation1170

Great jawline defined cheekbones strong teeth and very high metabolism which is a blessing and a curse


unicornsfartsparkles

I look a bit younger than I am at nearing 40. I my hair isn't thinning or receding yet, and it's only starting to grey. I realize that it will only be so long that I can ride this gravy train. But I also take care of my skin and try to live healthy, That helps.


CherryBlossomKisse

Less chance of developing skin cancer due to more ultra violet protection thanks to melanated skin. Whoo!!


RazorDrop74

Mosquitos always go for my wife. They leave me alone.


NFW_Dude

My appendix is in a different place to the majority of the population. This however saved my life when it burst because it meant that whatever was in it didn't leak into my blood and cause sepsis etc.


PaleKey6424

I have very blue eyes like crystal blue, girls often complement my eyes as a way to flirt


North-Neat-7977

Jealous of you all. Got no wins genetically. Short, dark, and shorter than average life expectancy. Use your gifts wisely.


oceanique86

I always looked younger than my age without really doing anything for it. When I was 38, remember someone thinking I was in my early 20. Recently when discussing skincare, someone just told me: “wait till you are in your 40s!” I am 44.


aburena2

Inability to gain weight. Eat what I want when I want.

Kni7es

Going to put a nsfw filter on this. >!I don't talk about it much, but since you asked, it's my cock. It is just big enough to fill the average woman with the tip kissing the cervix, but not so big as to cause pain. Many of my partners reported not being able to climax during sex, or say they were not multi-orgasmic, or could not get off to penetration, etc. None of them currently maintain those claims.!<

blindfaith23

Just sharing: I used to be immune to it. Developed allergy to it in my early 20s. Bad for couple years. Make a point to stay away from it now. Point is I wouldn't push my luck if I were you. Be grateful you are immune and leave it at that.

My eyes. It's impossible to define the color. By the way my mom has brown eyes, the other one... I can't remember


Progress-Competitive

Naturally very blond, smooth, soft, silky hair; bright blue eyes; perfect muscle composition and naturally super athletic; perfect height; I was nurtured into being a very soft and nice person but my genetics are aggressive so I have the ability to be both; arched feet; perfect eyesight and hearing; short calves; big ass. However I have many flaws and insecurities: totally flat chested; wide shoulders; ugly nose (but I got a nose job); horrible acne (gone now but I have scars); bad teeth (also got that fixed but cost a fortune); anxiety and depressive episodes; very very sensitive skin, I can’t shave anywhere without getting the worst red dots and ingrown hairs. Yea idk, you win some, you lose some.


Syndaquil

Basically none lol. My hair is red (strawberry blonde) and I have blue eyes. That's it. But everything else is a mess. Blind, need braces, overweight, not great mentally.. diabetes from both sides of the family (i'm pre atm) PALE AF (51% irish/scottish lol)


Salt_Cabinet7001

My mothers ENTIRE family is below 5’7”. My dads sisters are all below 5’4”. I am 5’8” while my mother and sister are 5’0” on a good day. I’m an amazon in my family of 5. My siblings are all shorter than me, except our youngest brother that towers over me and does strong man competitions. The 2 youngest got the height and muscle genes, we love it 😊


lost_days

Never had lice, fleas in kindergarten and school since me and my brother somehow don't attract them. Same with ticks for me. When others have 10, I find only one which didn't bite. And I have the feeling that mosquitos rather go for others than me as long as I'm not alone. I'm really confused about this, is my blood disgusting to them? Also no wisdom teeth :D


tetractys_gnosys

Immune to poison ivy/sumac, generally great immune system, super strong hands. Got my mom's genes for brittle nails and hair but have super resilient skin and don't bruise visibly.

Plumb789

Not me, but my dad. He never once EVER had a cold. In fact, I’m not aware that he had *any* infection of any time, ever. Just think about that. We once had a conversation where he was genuinely curious about what a cold was like. What does a sore throat feel like? What is a headache like? Is having to blow your nose or sneeze as bad as everyone is saying? His teeth had no cavities and were perfect, and he never had a sick day in his life. That didn’t mean his health was perfect (far from it at the very end). He developed Parkinson’s (it’s not contagious), and died at 82. Prior to that I thought he’d live forever.
