What are you guys talking about? We don't have blonde 'real' Armenians but only beautiful brunettes.

Yes sometimes I am embarrassed of other "Armenians" too, but don't turn your back on yourself and family.

And yes there are many Blond and Blue eyed Armenians. My mother is blond and green eyed while my brother is blond and blue eyed, no worries. Armenians where known for their fair skin and blond, redheads and light eye colours. But Armenians intermarried with Persians and others and during the time of the Crusades many arabs who where christian and persians who where christians moved up north where armenia is for safety since we were one of the few christian state in the area so we took these features. And if you know genealogy you know that dark skin and dark hair, etc are stronger genes meaning if you have offsprings they are more likely to recieve them.

My family is 100% Armenian and my mother was blond and blue eyed, many of the children are blue eyed. My father was brown eyed with light brown hair, his father was a redhead with blue eyes. Some children with blond hair change to brown hair after a year or two old.

Recessive -- dominant Eyes

Brown + Brown can have child Blue or Brown
Brown + Blue can have child Blue or Brown
Blue + Blue can only have Blue

I actually know alot of Armenians who have blue eyes, blond hair, red hair, green eyes, you name it. My grandmothers brothers kids and grandkids all have green eyes.

As for the Rabiz kids, the less said the better. Wouldn't allow them to question my Armenianness.
Like Freaky said, it's highschool doesn't matter where you come from.

That my friend is exactly the type of ignorance that you are facing and that may sometimes, on some issues, be pervasive in our community. While those features may be submissive traits, they do exist in our culture and likely were more predominant in our civilization's past.

Like any other group, they are jawing because you are different. Don't fret, you are the same and high school is just a game that's played as exercise for the real world.

....are you kidding me? my friend, who has 4 sisters, is the only sister in her family with blonde hair and blue eyes, she got it from her grandmother. the rest of her sisters have dark hair and dark eyes. no, i am not half armenian, although the attitude towards, i sometimes wish was. i see no reason why armenians cannot have blonde hair, esepcially with most armenian girls deing their hair blonde. ive even met redhead armenians, and i know a few with blonde hair besides me as well.

How is a blond armenian possible??? I beg to differ with you that there are no blond armenians. Speaking in such superlatives as all or none is dangerous.

Go take a look at the head of the AAA. Fair skinned, fair haired, blue eyed boy. Or, David Nalbandian. As a few examples.

I suspect the Armenian features that you refer to are a result of the blending that has occurred over centuries of bastardization of our genes. Not that there is anything wrong with this either.

You certainly don't want any in-breeding. Or, boys of brazil, or nothing.

i sometimes feel like embracing my heritage is about as fun as dying, since i haven't seen really good examples of what an armenian should be.

From the sound of what you describe its not they who should be accepting you.
I have really been around the "rabiz", but from what I have seen -- its trash, and the behaviour is a shame to the Armenian people.

Maybe its a house nigga vs. field nigga thang... haha.

Actually those features are pure Armenian. Don't fret.

The behavior you are referring to has more to do with high school than it has to do with being Armenian. It wouldn't be any different if you were another ethnicity at another school.
