No one is unaware that males display their colors, feathers, songs and manes when it comes to convince and conquer a female. The female chooses the sperm and/or the biological father of her offspring according to the charms displayed by the exhibitionist male. Something similar must happen to us women with male manes, not only with the display of charms. Only that, unlike animals, many of us also choose a relationship with the donor and this is where things get complicated.
Without disdaining personality, self-confidence, charisma, intelligence, kindness and even empathy, females (women included) are attracted to beautiful features, such as eyes, lips, eyebrows and facial harmony, very visible in the jaw, chin and forehead. Hair - or lack thereof - is also a feature considered a knee-looser. In a condom survey (lo and behold) women confessed that among the most attractive features in a man are blond hair, light eyes and an interesting accent. Of course, there were mentions of forearms, hands, feet and even thighs and calves (fetishes in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, by the way, where praise for the calves of Henry VIII and Louis XIV was frequent and has carried over to the present day).
And this is whereJonathan Jacob Meijer comes in. If it doesn't ring a bell, it will after reading this and other notes. A 43-year-old, blue-eyed, blond-haired, tawny-haired Dutch musician who brags like a shampoo ad from Kenya, where he has been living for a few years now, where he has voluntarily exiled himself because in his home country, a court banned him from donating sperm in 2017. Jonathan is a compulsive donor and some records officer found that he was the biological father of more than a hundred (yes, 100) babies, when the law allows only 25 (obvious he registered in more than eleven different clinics). Previously, only good old Isaiah, a biblical character, had been credited with 100 children and no one has any record of that except oral tradition.
