    Do you, or anyone in your family (immediate or extended), have any physical traits that stand in obvious contrast to just about everyone else? For example: freckles, a certain hair or eye color, height, body type, etc., etc.

    Well, I'm fairly small-busted. My mother had generous-sized breasts and my father's sisters were all cursed with these humongous, pendulous water-wings (and I thank GOD I didn't inherit those!). I must take after my maternal grandmother, who was small, Period.

    My oldest brother doesn't look like either parent. He looks a lot like our maternal grandfather. But kids often resembles grandparents, anyway.

    Opposite here. My mother is under 5'0 tall, under 100 pounds and an A cup, I'm 5'4, 200 pounds and a healthy C size.

    My mother, father, brother and 3 sisters all have brown hair/eyes. I have blue yes/HAD blonde hair as a kid, but it is dark now (go figure)

    Size wise, my mom & sister are all really thin. My bro and I are very thick and muscular---like german walls! LOL

    My mom and sister rhonda were size 34B, sis gail & denise are 36C... and I'm a whopping 40DDD LOL

    Something interesting though is that breast size is usually passed thru the father's genes to the daughter-- so she usually takes after her paternal grandmother. This was true in my case--- my grandmother was a well stacked german woman! and all my cousins were jealous cause they said i got all of her breasts! LOL My german grandfather used to say, "Ah Schatzi, what a good strong girl, work in der fields--- u'll grow to have wide round hips to cradle the youth and well stocked to suckle and nurture them" thinking now.. im pissed at those wide round hips.. but pop, you were talking about my breasts!!! LOL

    I'm one of only 2 people in my family that have brown eyes--at least my mother's side of the family. I don't know who my biological father is, and never wanted to, but I do know that he was Native American Indian. All of my maternal relatives are blonde, blue eyed Finnish people, so I'm sort of the dark horse. I got the dark hair and eyes, obviously from my father, but the pale Finnish complexion:

    I am the only left handed person in my family. My older sister resembles my dad and I resemble my mom. My younger sister resembles no one. She has facial features that no one else has. She also has stick strait hair while the rest of us have curly fuzzy hair.

    We used to tease her that her father was really the milkman.

    My mom, my aunt and uncle all look like my grandmother. However, my other aunt (their sister) is completely atypical to them in the face and physical structure. She's much bigger, almost amazonian.

    left handedness is supposed to be another trait carried on the father's gene... everyone in my family is a rightie... but my sis's kids are all lefties... and her hubby's family is filled with lefts.. so it seems to be true

    The other brown-eyed person in my family, a cousin, is also left handed, too, as I am---maybe those traits go together! LOL big grin

    Even though I catch, throw and eat with my right hand, I write left handed (so I tend to call myself mostly left handed). As far as I know, I'm the only left handed person in my family.

    My cousin Luke who is black has blue eyes (which is very rare for African Americans).

    hmmmm no they dont LOL... my nephews are all three of them lefties... and one is a blue eyed kid. good looking too! Smile lol

    i remember stories that my brother in law's family told me about how when they were in catholic school in the 60s, the nuns would tie their left arms to their bodies and force them to use the right hand more often. They used to say that the left hand was the "devil's tool". I dont know why. his one cousin actually still has scars from where the nun beat his hand with the metal edge of a ruler!!! crazy!

    If the right side of the brain, controls the left side of the body, then only us left handed people are in our right minds.

    Ah but if you weighed 100 lbs your boobs would also be smaller. Boobs are made up mainly of fat so as a person gains or loses weight the boobs respond accordingly.

    I was unlucky enough to have inherited my fathers long body and short legs. As a result I can not wear a long dress or coat without looking dumpy. I was thinner (then) than both my daughters but I couldn't wear their jeans because they inherited their dads very long legs and shorter body.
