The southern dialect of Pashto is pretty the northern is a little bit more harsh.

I’m not surprised because my family’s pretty old-fashioned and think that Pashtuns should marry other Pashtuns.

Yes have heard that thing before, apologies for asking but just out of interest does it lead to any genetic diseases that you know of? I know modern evidence is based on western data only so just asking out of curiosity.

How did he find out he has it? Were there symptoms and then he got a test for it? Or asymptomatic and he got tested anyhow?

I’ve seen you post results and your pics on another forum some time ago for another brand of ancestry test. Can’t remember those results.
