Geez. That Ainu woman resembles my dad as he got older. Hmmmm
Actually I don't blame the Japanese for wanting their emperor to be completely Japanese.
However, the East Asians themselves appear to be derived substantially from the very same group of humans as are the European peoples.
Fundamentally, there are two major East Asian populations. The Chinese represent one type; the Ainu represent the other.
Neither group, though, should be confused with the NE Asian Chuchi, who are purely of European-type stock, but otherwise resemble the Chinese and American Indians.
Japanese-American women prefer American-American men for a variety of reasons. One is that they are all nice guys, eh!
Let's not expect the Japanese to play the same silly, PC games we do. It won't happen.
Supposedly he killed all those with a large or high nose, and as a result the only surviving Hakka had short noses. This is an unsustainable Lamarckian view of inheritance.
The fact is the Hakka tend to not have a high bridge. Numerous Japanese people today, including many members of the Royal Family group do not have a high bridge. Many Ainu and those descended from Samurai do not have a high bridge.
Whatever happened to the Hakka who went from North to South is irrelevant to what happened to the Hakka who went to Japan "way back when".
H. Narain (an Indian archaeologist) says that Caucasian people have their origins in or around the Gansu Province of China.
I have a Chinese friend who married a Hakka woman. He says the Hakka Chinese women are the prettiest women on earth.
It wouldn't suprise me if ol' Qin turns out to have some Caucasian features himself. There were many poems written about the green eyes of the Han emperors.
BTW, tests recently done on his tomb indicate very high levels of mercury...lending evidence to the legend that he has 'streams' of mercury in his tomb.
What you have to remember is that when the King of Chin (Qin) undertook the conquest of China, he used genocide as one of his weapons.
When he was done he'd changed the ethnic face of China forever.
The Hakka still don't look all that much like the Han.
I agree.
I noticed they were on average, not very attractive, but there would always be one really pretty one. I also noticed the pretty ones tended to be petite with round faces. The Japanese boys had the same ideas, in other words they thought the same ones were pretty that we did. The ugly ones were tall and had flat faces.
The girl who plays Lana Lang on "Smallville" is about as pretty as they get and she is Chinese and Dutch.
Over all I am certain the prettiest girls come from Ireland, Scotland as well as the rest of the British Isles. Also Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and Iceland.
I think beauty is mostly about regular features and for some reason, those places seem to produce the most like that.
gaijin bump
Your post makes a lot of sense to me. Ainu people are very muscular and were known as the best warriors on earth.
I'm attracted to those too. Of course, I'm from there, lol.

Actually these Ainu people remind me more of American Indians than Japanese.
Also think about how many popular actors/actresses over the years fit into this category...many had unusually large heads for their bodies (Jolson, Astaire, Bendix, Cary Grant are just a few that readily come to mind...)
I agree. I think Japan is hands-down the most anti-PC civilized nation on earth. The tradition of rejecting foreign ideas and remaining aloof on their islands for centuries has served them well, as has their undoubtedly VERY difficult language which has kept most foreigners from ever really being able to understand the Japanese - OTOH, they have incorporated western technology while avoiding debilitating western decadence and destructive ideas like feminism - the fact that their immigration laws are among the toughest on earth helps too....
Assuming random chance and a 50% probability of having a girl baby, the probability of that happening is less than .2% The actual probability is somewhat lower, just under .1% because actual probabily of a girl baby is 48.78%. (About 1.05 boy badies per girl baby).
I'd say the Imperial family has a problem making sperm with Y chromosomes.
Very interesting discussion. I will have to come back to it to see where it goes.
