Well,

Well, sometimes those additional complexities in life can be a good thing.

Imagine if, as the result of a DNA test, you found that you had a half sibling that you had been unaware of; You would have no curiosity about them? No interest in meeting them or comparing yourself to them in regards to the nature vs. nurture question?

Until faced with that sort of situation, it's hard to second guess how you might feel but you might be surprised at how something like that may change your worldview or sense of self. Or maybe not.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
