If you and your spouse both have blue eyes you’re related. Sorry to put a damper on things.

It’s not a surprise that everyone’s always so hung up on their eye colour. Eyes are one of the most enchanting human organs and among all the colours, blue eyes seem to be very captivating. I mean, who wouldn’t want to get lost in a pair of beautiful blue eyes?

The blue eyed phenomenon is curtesy of a genetic mutation, which must have occurred thousands of years ago, since all humans used to have brown eyes. The Independent noted that ALL people with blue eyes share a common ancestor and share common DNA. This also means that it must have been ONE person who was responsible for the mutation.

Sorry, to all you blue eyed people getting hot and steamy together, it’s basically incest.

On a brighter note, to all you brown eyed humans, there is a lot of disparity within your genes. This suggests that not all brown eyed people share common ancestors. (YAY!)

If you have blue eyes, it might be time to start looking for a brown-eyed spouse. Then again, just keep doing you, we’re all human!
