First British Were Dark Skinned People

What do you think of this?

 

i think cheddar man is just a rude thing to call someone. i feel like it's one step above smegma man.

 

Talking about this this morning. Primitive man was clearly on the move more than initially thought. My first thought though is shamefully. - what do you think of that you white supremacist pieces of shit?

 

Nothing wrong with Cheddar 'Cheese ... mmmm

 

When this person lived, 10,000 years ago, Britain was still joined to the European continent. I doubt the right wing folks would like that much either.

 

It makes one wonder why Scandinavian/Nordic countries have a lotta Blue eyed Blondes though?
This article from 2008 has it's own take =
All blue-eyed people can be traced back to one ancestor who lived 10,000 years ago near the Black Sea | Daily Mail Online

 

I think you Scots ate all the black people

 

I thought it was common knowledge that England was where you send people to become pasty and pale.

 

I thought that was in poor taste myself. It's a fairly common racial slur to refer to an Hispanic individual as "cheddar". This homosapien obviously wasn't Hispanic; that's not even what I'm saying. I'm saying it was a bad call on the part of the scientists to name something significant in terms of skin color, something that is denigrating to a people who are oppressed because of the color of their skin.

I don't know if I'minmyunderwear meant it in that way. But I suppose I agree that it is only several steps away from smegma man, yes.

 

Cheddar Man was unearthed in 1903 in Gough's Cave at Cheddar Gorge, Somerset

 

Think that might be why they call him " Cheddar man " Just a thought ??

 

I'm sorry Wolf, I get what you're saying. Really, I do. But it just sounds wrong when in reaction to Undies' post there.

 

The article that I read from usatoday said as much. That he was named for the location etc. I wonder if he was named in 1903 or 2018.

 

i'd much rather be named somerset man than cheese guy.

 

Lol I myself am from Cheshire So I get Cheezy If I was from somerset I could be Cider man

 

It was said 'very much' tongue in cheek Asmodean - and - followed up with a more relevant posting.
The issue of colour pigmentation is based more on scientific theorism than first hand knowledge

 

As I too was born in Cheshire (before the boundaries changed) - seems we are a pair of Cheeses - lol
