JoCo Eugenics

[Jon Who]

I'm sure most of you are aware of what Eugenics is, if not it's the belief that unwanted traits are hereditary, though it can be used to identify who belongs to certain groups (Famously used by the Nazis to identify Jews). Basically I'm just wanting physical information of JoCo fans so that it might be possible to identify the average JoCo fan's appearance, in order to improve status in Britain.

In this case I require:
1. Height (5' 10")
2. Eye Colour (Variable)
3. Hair Colour (Natural) (Brown/Black)
4. Arm Length (Shoulder to Wrist) (23.5")
5. Outside Leg Length (Hip to Foot) (41")
6. Inner Leg Length (33")
7. Waist Width (31.5")
8. Hair Length (Long, Short etc.) (Long)

Any answers are great so even if there are gaps it's all good.

This is such a creepy thread, from the title on down. I honestly can't think of any uses for this information that could possibly be to the benefit of humanity.

Um, I have shortish (average-length, for guys, really) black hair and deep, inviting chocolate-brown eyes (…ladies). I don't have, or am unwilling to share (or am unwilling to be factual about), the rest, so if anyone really wants to know my inseam, you can dashed well measure it yourself.

[Jon Who]

Sorry, after posting it I realised how bad it seemed, but it can't do any harm-I don't have any access to a genetics laboratory.

[Khavall]

The real question is, Bry, what use wouldn't this information have?

[Jon Who]

I suppose by determining the average you can identify the person closest to the average for a bit of fun-if anyone knows JoCo's information that would be ultimate.

[muckalarkuary]

Umm… interesting idea.

I'm 5'5". Brown hair. Hazel eyes. And female.

[Jon Who]

I wouldn't have thought sex was important, seeing as how there are only two and it's obvious both sexes like JoCo, but thanks all the same.

When I went to my first JoCo concert I marveled at how folks in the crowd looked like my friends from back home, folks I met at the various cons I attend. Maybe we're all grown in the same artificial wombs? Probably not.

[Jon Who]

See that's what I'm on about, physical resemblances between people make it easier to identify them.

[Gle3nn]

So far at every show I've gone to, I'm JoCos biggest fan.
I'm 6'2"
eyes of blue
dark brown hair
and giant shoes
…has anybody seen my gal…..
arm length I only know that I take the longest sleeve that most stores keep in stock.
waist? let's just say I'm not wasting away.
Hair is short now.

When my brother was in Wales, he said every where he went he thought he saw me.

[Jon Who]

When you say biggest I'm going to assume you mean tallest?

[muckalarkuary]

I'm sure sex isn't important, Jon Who… but I also don't think any of this is important. I just don't see how it will help you come up with any kind of composite. So far, the people who have replied have been very physically different. I think you'd do better to learn things about us as people… to get a personality profile of a JoCo fan.

[Jon Who]

Very Well give me a couple of minutes, though it does seem to be very similar in idea to what the Open Thread originally was.

Edit: N.B. Personality profiles are even harder to composite because different people interpret the same quality to varying degrees, with physical attributes there is no argument.

[muckalarkuary]

The idea of the Open Thread is to have a thread for all those conversations about ourselves that come out of talking about JoCo. It's a thread for anything.

I'm not saying you have to come up with a personality profile… I just think it would tell you more about whether or not a person could potentially like JoCo than examining physical traits would.
