I noticed she said that Sims 2 was more realistic with black and brown hair being dominant and blonde and red being resesive, but that is not how it works in real life. I'm glad they moved away from that idea for Sims 3 and 4 and hope they never go back to it.
@Sallycutecat Wait what? I'm pretty sure black and brown hair is dominant and blonde and red is recessive in real life too...
No colour is dominant over another. If someone with blonde hair and someone with black hair have a child the child has equal chance of having any hair colour from black to blonde. If they inherit both blonde and black our genietic code does not select black to be dominant, instead it could be either. If the darker hair colours were dominant then by now, the human race will all have the darker hair colours.
Just because a trait is dominant doesn't mean everyone will inherit that trait, some people will get recessive features. I'm pretty sure brown hair is dominant. Plus, eye colors can be recessive or dominant. Blue eyes are recessive while brown eyes are dominant but not everyone has brown eyes, I've seen quite a few people with blue eyes.
