DNA Testing

DNA Testing was created in the 1980s, DNA testing began with the development of DNA fingerprinting by Dr. Alec Jeffreys, which allowed for the identification and comparison of individual DNA profiles, significantly impacting forensic science and paternity testing. The restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) technique was introduced during this time, marking the first genetic test using DNA. Additionally, the first notable instance of DNA testing for genetic linkage analysis occurred in the U.S. in the mid-1980s, laying the groundwork for modern DNA testing practices. You spit in a tube, send it to a lab, and six weeks later your results come back saying you're 25% Nigerian, 13% Scottish, 7% Indigenous American, and the rest… a mystery soup. You feel excited. Maybe confused. Maybe even validated. But hold on. That DNA test might help you find your relatives, but it's not your cultural passport and it's certainly not the final word on who you are. Analogy 1: DNA for Relatives = GPS Coordinates. DNA for Ethnicity = Weather Forecast When you use a DNA test to find relatives, you're using exact coordinates of measurable genetic markers passed from one generation to the next, like a GPS signal. When you use DNA to predict your ethnicity, it's more like forecasting the weather. There's probability, pattern recognition, and a lot of assumptions about what "Scottish DNA" or " American Indian DNA" even looks like.

DNA Testing for Family: Think of your DNA like a chain of puzzle pieces. You inherit 50% from each parent, 25% from each grandparent, and so on. These patterns follow predictable rules — and science has mastered the math. Full siblings share ~50% DNA. First cousins: ~12.5%. A paternity test? Over 99.99% accurate. Companies like 23andMe or AncestryDNA can scan your genome and match you with people who share long identical segments. Those segments don’t lie.🔍 Example: If you and someone else share 3,500 cM (centiMorgans), the science says you’re parent/child or full siblings. That’s not guesswork, it's biology. 🌍 DNA for Ethnicity: Why It Fails Now switch gears. You ask: “Where am I from?” The problem? That question is social, historical, and often political, not purely biological.

Hot Take Shit Test

A conversational vibe check where someone casually drops a spicy, high-conviction opinion—not to argue, but to see who keeps it cool and who crumbles like an overbaked croissant.

It’s not trolling. It’s not a trap. It’s just the quiet part said out loud… on purpose.

Filters for:
• Keeping your cool when the convo isn’t hugging your feelings
• Not turning into a TED Talk the second someone disagrees
• Acting like an adult, not an exposed nerve

You drop the truth. Their reaction does the sorting.

Person A: “Unconditional love is a myth. Every love has terms—some people just don’t read the fine print.”
Person B: “Wow… that’s kinda toxic.”
Narrator: Hot Take Shit Test failed. Thanks for playing.

Test

Short for Testosterone, is the primary sex hormone and anabolic steroid in males. In humans, testosterone plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissues such as testes and prostate, as well as promoting secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle and bone mass, and the growth of body hair.
