I am an MD. I have read that the average African American is 30%white, but there is a wide variation. People like Colon Powell former secretary of state probably have more than 50%white based on his light complexion, and others are definitely less than 30% white. Since fully half of your genes come from your father, then in order to have a white baby you would need for your husband or b/f to be over 50% white to begin with and then, just by chance, all of the genes from the white half would need to be in the one sperm that made it to your egg. This is highly unlikely, but not impossible. I once knew an African American couple who were both very light skinned, and one of their 5 children looked absolutely white in every respect, so it is not impossible. But race is becoming less and less of an issue nowadays, and if you love your guy then any child he gives you will be just fine, don't you agree? Try renting the movie "The Human Stain" and see what you think.

the father doesn't determine the color...
when you're looking at these kind of genetic issues, it's all about dominant genes. caucasian genes never dominate. so if an asian or african-american have a baby with a caucasian (it doesn't matter which is mother or father), the baby will always be dark. sometimes the degree will vary- light skin, medium or very dark skin. but the only way a baby is coming out white is if two white people are the biological parents.

The baby can appear white - yes. It all depends on the genetics of the parents and the random genes from the two that get passed to the baby. The baby would still technically be mulatto.

well they of course cant be completely white in genes wise.
and although it is very unlikely because usually the African American gene overcomes the Caucasian gene....its definitly possible for the baby to appear completely white.
there was this story on twins between bi-racial parents and one was completely black with brown hair and one was completely white with blonde hair.
the best part of that story was that when news reporters asked, "what did you think when you saw this." and the mother said..." i actually didnt even notice until someone pointed it out to me, i just was making sure my babys were healthy and that everything was in the right place"

The baby would be mulato, however, african american babies are usually born with lighter skin than expected. It darkens over the first few weeks to the shade it will be.

As a White guy of Viking descent I comprehend i'm no longer meant to remark on a topic like this, yet i quite do not care. My spouse is chinese, and that i discover ladies of all races and colorings to be beautiful. i imagine the rationalization white ladies and black adult males date is for an same rationalization why I have dated black ladies and Asian ladies. they look sturdy. I have dated black ladies and been more than satisfied with the memories because of the astounding hotness of black ladies. All ladies are beautiful, and if i became a straight away white ladies, i have self belief i'd discover adult males of all races and colorings to be beautiful. Thank God i'm a guy because i prefer to be the guy, and that i have got here across ladies of all races prefer to submit to my masculine nature. it is the organic order of the human species for ladies to be submissive and adult males dominant. In my memories I have got here across black ladies to be a lot extra submissive than white ladies, and white ladies extra submissive than Asian ladies. possibly it is why i love black ladies a lot, they make me experience manly. so some distance as white human beings being a lot less advanced than blacks, it fairly is merely an ignorant racist commentary maximum likely made by an highly depressing human being. it is authentic there have been many stunning civilizations in Africa in the time of history, besides the undeniable fact that a similar also should be said of Europe, Asia, and the Americas. For absolutely everyone to have self belief one race extra positive to a distinct is small-minded certainly. Please save your recommendations open to human beings from different cultures and races. The human species has had sufficient senseless violence and bloodshed because of close-mindedness. If 2 human beings love one yet another than it fairly is that. it would properly be organic to choose each and each of the individuals of one's race to no longer date interracially, besides the undeniable fact that it fairly is genuinely no longer a lifelike standpoint. human beings are going to date whoever they choose, and absolutely everyone else's opinion is of no outcome. This situation has no longer something to do with out of control immigration by the way. it fairly is merely undeniable stupidity.

It can vary. Children born of parents with different amounts of melanin can be anywhere in the range between the two.

yes it has nothing to do with your races.. its all in the genetics and chroms. i know a black couple that had twins! one was white and one was black and they had a DNA test and they were the parents. white people can have a black baby. it just depends on the way the chroms line up.
