| Because I think I have, I’ve never had acne or major pimple breakouts like the rest of my family. I get maybe one pimple every few months, and that’s it. My younger brother has acne and always asks me how I do it. What's your version of winning the genetic lottery? |
| That is influenced by things other than genetics too though. I don't know. I don't really feel likeI have something to boast over nor would I really care to much if I did. |

| Yeah, kind of. The only things I could have had better genetically in terms of attractiveness are my hair and skin, and even they aren't that terrible since I don't think I'll be going bald before like at least 50, my hair is generally very thick, and I haven't had acne problems. |
| Well the plus side is I've still got a full head of hair at 37, with only a slight thinning spot at the back. I would have gotten that from my Dad's side. But other than that no lol. I was poisoned by pesticides whilst in the womb, that and being premature wrecked my development and gave me a shit immune system. 3 of my immediate family members were also poisoned, but I guess this doesn't really count as genetic, although I worry if I could pass something on, but so far it's not an issue and don't know if I could really find it out, as there's a cover-up and lots of denials involved in all that. My family also has had issues with mental health and heart problems, and I know I also have problems with my heart, but again that was mainly down to the poisoning. [Edit] also I forgot that I don't have great skin and burn in the sun easily, although not as badly as my sister does. That was from our Dad, but for some reason he didn't mind getting sunburnt lol. |

| I can eat and be lazy as much as I want, and I always stay in ideal weight range, probably because I have superior metabolic genes. |
*kappa* |
| I wouldn't call not having acne genetic lottery tbh, it majorly depends on your skin care routine as well. (I've never had acne either) The only genetic lottery I've won is my high testosterone levels. I put on muscle mass a lot more easily than most of my friends and have got very specific muscles that are much stronger than the average, for example my shoulders, hamstrings, forearms, etc. Although I wouldn't exactly call my high testosterone really a lottery win, considering I have to deal with a lot of body hair. |

| @Zarutaku You probably don't eat enough in specific days. Fast metabolism is influenced a lot by hormone levels, height, and overall weight. The bulkier and taller you are, the faster you burn calories, but the rate which you burn calories is usually overestimated, especially if you don't track your daily calories. |

| @SimplyBrazen I eat enough to satisfy my cravings, I'm 185cm tall and have always weighed below 80kg, so I'm not bulky at all, I don't even lift bro :P |

| I'm beautiful as elf tbh lol (thanks daddy, you shitter, hope your deathbed is full of sharp rocks). But gaining/loosing weight easily, so I have to watch my diet and train all the time, such a burden! Realized that flaw when our first got born and I got like +10 kilos in 3 months, no fun. Also, shitty pale skin that burns even on a cloudy day. Not much to whine about, one may say - but somehow our flaws hit the spot. Like, I literally hate fat people, and spend most of the time at the sunshine, haha. The god is a such a perverted lady really, she could give me a weaker liver, for instance, to keep me away from drinking - but no, bitch! I'll tell her all I think about her jokes after we have fun when I die to skin cancer or heart attack. |

| @LoveYourSmile Don't worry, I had no plans to talk about my genetics in detail, it's not much of a good idea to disclose that much about myself (then again, I probably info-dumped all of it somewhere on MAL before and just don't remember). The blood moon made you think of me, you say? That would almost sound romantic if it weren’t probably more related to my penchant for bloody scenarios. |
| Appearance and genetics are very overrated, especially for men. The real fact is that the only thing that matters in this society is the amount of money and social status. Everything else is just like bonus. Win in terms of appearance in the genetic lottery will give you practically nothing, but if you have a predisposition to, for example, IT, then you can become a successful IT specialist and earn a lot of money (Well, ok, looks can matter if you decide to become an actor or a model or a blogger.) Appearance really matters only for women since society judges women primarily by appearance. Also what i wrote now is not my desire, these are just facts and do not mean that i like how everything is in this life |

| @fleurbleue Yeah, yeah, don't expose too much. Who knows if some weirdo is dreaming of planting his bizarre Kartoffeln amidst your accurate potato bed. Anyway, everything is romantic in some way. Remember, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder! The Moon was really nice - I was counting stars for digits, but got distracted at 370 or so. Eibsee is beautiful at the full Moon, you should visit it, really. Not the Moon itself , I mean... or maybe I don't. |

You know how to scare me, right? Haha. More seriously, people don't *talk* much about their sexual things at the first acquaintance irl. But when they face it... they just accept (or run). But honestly, I have never met a single one running away from mine (well, maybe besides my wifey - but that's justified at least, haha). |

| @LoveYourSmile don't worry considering he's not actually my best friend he'll probably ban me for 3 more days instead. I'm just testing the injustice of the system at this point. |
| Yeah I won. My eyes and hair especially get complimented at least once a week so yeah |
Nothing amazing ever happens here. Everything is ordinary. ♫ This staircase, it leads only To some old pictures of you Through an a-thousand-mile-long tube ♫ |
| well i'm conventionally attractive apparently but mental health wise im a hot mess |
  x x x If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain. If you cut me with a knife, it's still the same. And I know her heart is beating, and I know that I am dead; yet the pain here that I feel, try and tell me it's not real, and it seems that I still have a tear to shed x x x |
| Eh not really, while i'm tall and have a nice face (apparently) i've always had bad skin with eczema and achne and whatnot. |
 |
| If we focus on good traits only, then my ability to eat as much as I want while staying slim, my youthful appearance (though it can also be influenced by my lifestyle/nourishment) including a good height and full hair, and my resistance against sicknesses except from food poisening. I also used to be able to have no troubles with sunburns while easily tanning, but I've been too long too much inside in the past decade at least |
| I don't think a genetic lottery even exists. |
| Here is my Pixiv account of my hentai drawings..... https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/104739065 Here is my blog.... https://theendofindustrialcivilization.blogspot.com/?m=1 |
| Not really, it could have been worse, I'm quite content with what I got though. |
 |
| On the one hand not really, but on the other hand mosquitoes do not bite me, I age very slowly and am exactly 6ft tall. |
| Kinda. There are no major health issues on either side of my family. However occasionally a few people have gotten diabetes on my mom's side once in awhile. Nothing too major though. And three out of my four grandparents lived into their 90s. |
 |
| I used to have acne but it is limited to one to two per month. They are still bad though plus my skin is oily and gets dark burned easily. The only genetics lottery I won is in height. It's 6'5 which is quite tall. |
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.  |
| Tbh I don't think I won the genetic lottery at all haha. I'm only glad that I have freckles because I like them, other than that I need to wear glasses and my back tends to break out with acne[?] [no idea how to call it] which I probably got from my dad and I need to someday got to the dermatologist to try and chill it. [tbh It's not that bad for me, but It's certaintly not pretty either] - still at least the skin on my face rarely breaks out and I don't use any cosmetics on it either so that's a win. My hair is annoying as fuck tho, so I guess whenever I can find a genetic win, I can easily find another downside - so It's a 50/50 for me. Could have been worse, but It's not bad either. |

| Definitely won the mega million in the genetic lottery. |
| Well, let's see when I'm older. So far, it's been alright. |
  |
| A woman I met at a bar recently told me that I'm "Burt Reynolds hot" so I'd say so. I've inherited my dad's rugged masculine vibe. Kinda wish I got his height too though lol. |
