The article suggesting that natural blondes are being outcompeted by bottle blondes and thus are going to be disappearing from the breeding population (because, you see, men really prefer bottle blondes and women have no volition in theories like this) was bad enough on the irritating pseudoscientific drivel front.

The reply comment saying that "recessive" is not a random designator, but in fact means "disappearing from the population" makes me want to bang-head-on-wall-a-lot. Alleles, people, alleles!

Whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.

Why is it my lot in life to exasperatedly explain basic genetics to people on usenet?

Oh, I see now. This is for the same reason I should give up on caring about silly things like very basic language skills, right? Wow, I must be pretty stupid not to get that.

And reading comprehension, too, such as recognizing that the word "stupid" does not appear in my original comment.
