Many Latins want people to say they are related to them,and I would if they can show me that some of their genes match mine-that's what this DNA business is about-catagorizing people by their matching genes in order to see the whole lot of them as a group-but I do love all people really-many Mediterr. people have a mt16519C gene,so do people from other ethnic tribes-It could be said that they share blood,but I'd like more collaboration on the theme,with more history of genes of that area,and the holders surnames,culture,customs,and the like.Many men in Iberia are R1b1,and that's my haplo. male mate theoretically,but R1b1 also lives all over Europe,maybe he's just a guy and not a certain ethnic brand of guy,like German or Spanish.
