Yep, so unfair that black folk are generally stuck with those flat wide noses. This is about up there with an article I read a while back about vitamin D deficiencies in black people due to not enough sun exposure and low intake of vitamin D fortified milk. One "expert" said that the "downside" to black folk going out into the sun was that they would get darker which he said was undesirable to his patients.
The Ghost says: The blacker the better, get outside and take a vitamin D supplement.
