The other day while I was in the operating room as the covers were removed from the patient everyone began to notice the young girl with beautiful golden hair, a few minutes later a discussion started on blonde hair. Apparently blondes are endangered species since the gene for blonde hair is a recessive gene which means that it is more difficult to pass the gene onto their offsprings since two recessive genes are needed to pass this trait onto others. Some scientists believe that blondes are going to be extinct in about 200 years while others believe that the frequency of blondes will drop but not disappear.
