OK, I am blonde, Norwegian(-German) but I definitely carry that gene, front and center. Our friend, a Norski, does too, as does our son. All blondes. My husband, a blond Icelandic sort, does not.
Interesting theory tho, and I suspect there is truth in it.
When we were in Northumbria, the B&B owner looked exactly like my large-boned Norwegian grandfather. I know the Vikings landed right there.
How do you know your hubby “does not”? is he totally void of all pinkish/reddish hairs?
If he’s a wimp tell me now and tell me where to go...I’ll slaughter his pinkless ass and take ya for my own!
lol, I’m being silly. don’t sic the blond dude on me, please.
