Best wishes to the project. Any reduction of chances of genetic defects is welcome.
If this pilot is successful, we can show something new to the world in the bio field. This can be revolutionary for our overpopulated world.
My only problem is with this. We should not look up to being only 'fair'. Dark is sexy too.
Wow, so this is working!!! Interesting.
That's an assumption. RSS are not as foolish as you think, don't underestimate them....and it IS possible to vastly improve physical and mental characteristics of the baby through improved nutrition, stress reduction etc. if you take away the stuff about "planetary alignments" and such mumbo jumbo, nothing they have said is wrong....in fact in the old days in India pregnant and nursing women were given special food and they were not allowed to do housework and after a certain number of months of pregnancy they were sent home to be with their mothers for extra care and relaxation. This gave the best chance for healthy and smart babies. Nowadays mothers work till they drop their babies on the office floor, I'm sure in the long run this will not be good for the health and well being of future generations.
In fact who knows even the "planetary alignments" stuff, ridiculous as it sounds, may have something. the Chinese use a "conceptions calendar" and I am told that it works...who knows...anything is possible....let's not assume that we know everything there is to know. Our forefathers were not as stupid as we think they were, after all they survived a million years in a harsh world. They couldn't have done that if they were foolish. I only hope we leave a better world for our children as they did for us. I realize this thread was created specifically to laugh at Hindus in general and the rss in particular but actually if you read it fully, they are not wrong, just their way of saying is a little "out of date" shall we say.
Agreed
Why be defensive? Chill.
True. And ignore Arya Dravida BS here.
Dude I know plenty of dark North Indians and fair southies. I am sure you do to.

So let's not overplay this north vs South card.
At most on average there are a few shades of pigmentation difference between the average Bihari and the average Madrasi....best case scenario....though honestly I doubt even that.
this whole color thing is overblown, I suspect by people who have nothing else to be proud of...so chill.

Dude, I know you and your penchant for dog fights.
Dude, I know you and your penchant for dog fights.
So, I am going to say this just once.
I know that despite your love of needling all and sundry you are an intelligent guy, so am sure you will get this first time round.
There has been much scientific research done on what makes a person beautiful and what does not.
Beauty is created by something known as "dynamic symmetry". All living creatures grow in a ratio called Phi. Every beautiful face fits that ratio...regardless of race. So a beautiful negro or a beautiful Scandinavian face all falls in that ratio. Google Marquardt's mask. This is a geometrical "mask" that aligns perfectly, to the millimeter, against a beautiful face.
The reason why humans are attracted to this particular geometry is that it is the healthiest and is created under optimal conditions. So when a population is well fed nutritionally , not just calories, they tend to produce more babies with dynamic symmetry. This is true of all human beings. When nutrition goes wrong, for instance the mother is a little short of say vitamin A , the fetus eye lens will not be perfectly round but a little oval leading to near sight. The same for other features too. So beauty was an indication to our ancestors as to the health and fertility of future partners.
It is hard for me to explain in just few sentences as there is a lot of scientific ideas involved and I can never be sure if you are just trolling or serious.
