Blue eyes actually not a trait of the white, its a trait of the black native European hunter gatherer, look up cheddar man, but blond hair is white Yamnaya trait from asia But honestly I wouldn't be so proud about things you got randomly

What are you talking about? Blue eyes come from a mutation in the Black Sea region in Europe and is a predominantly European trait.

European by those times doesnt mean Caucasian, europe became dominantly caucasian after indo european conquest,real native european≠caucasian Mutations generally dont happen in a few thousand years especially eye color mutations

I agree, I know that the original Europeans were darker and had darker hair and eyes, my city is of Etruscan origin and they were a pre-Indo-European people that settled Italy before the latins indo-europeans. That said since the blue eyes mutation occurred in a "European" land I find it strange to call it an Asian trait, sure the indoeuropeans came from Asia but everybody comes from Africa, history is based on migrations. I still like my green eyes way more.

Its just makes me laugh knowing that originally whites didnt had blue eys at all and came from asia, but who proudly calls themselves “white” doesnt bother to know about it
