what do you all think about this? I find it interesting, although a tad farfetched. I am personally not offended, but I can see how some people would be.

By the way I find the face at the start of the article to be scary. The eyes are very disconcerting. Although this states that many aspies would find it to be attractive.

there are reasons for everything, maybe its part of it, maybe its not, all i know is certain people on here wont be posting on this thread

Michael Crichton's Novel "Next"; he gives evidence that Neanderthals had blond hair, and that they were intelligent beings. He also gives evidence that Brown-haired people are less intelligent.

What if you are still intelligent if you had blond hair at one time?

I had blond hair when I was a baby, but when I matured: I turned brown.

Maybe Michael Crichton is right!

It IS an interesting theory. It would explain certain differences, and the idea of extinction, etc... I doubt whites came from blacks or vice/versa. Just the diversity of caucasions and similarities of blacks make THAT clear.

As for the dumb blond jokes? MOST dumb blonds are probably not REALLY blond. There IS a special charm there sometimes, so some prefer it, and that isn't exactly a secret, so blond hair coloring is probably VERY popular. Also, predominantly blond cultures HAVE done pretty well for themselves. I doubt you could make any serious claim that they were dumb.

It PROBABLY started because some women think all men are stupid, and want stupid blond women.

As for MY hair color. I don't think I ever had blond hair, but it was lighter when I was young.

Well that was interesting.
I know some of it is far-fetched, but those questions somewhere near the middle were interesting. One was, "Can you whistle?"

Seriously? I can't whistle. Never have been able to. Is that seriously an AP trait? Interesting.

Even if the author is totally serious, they need to organize their whole thing a little better. It doesn't flow.

crackpot.

Are there blacks, orientals, indians with Aspies, given there were no known neanderthals

Actually...comb the hair, trim the eyebrows and take into account that it's modelling plastic and it looks remarkably similar to some kids I know and not what I'd consider out of place at all.
Still slogging through the awfully-laid-out article... get back to you on that

I just want to go on record as saying that I like those Neanderthals on the Geico commercials.

Jolly amusing ....
