When I did my DNA test/report, it claimed to tell you what percentage of neanderthal DNA you have/where you stand relative to others, but I'm not sure how valid that stuff is.

According to 23andMe:
You inherited a small amount of DNA from your Neanderthal ancestors. Out of the 7,462 variants we tested, we found 243 variants in your DNA that trace back to the Neanderthals.
All together, your Neanderthal ancestry accounts for less than ~2 percent of your DNA.

They still think red hair is from the Neanderthal line?

Humans and Neanderthals mated 250,000 years ago, much earlier than thought

Just in time to watch genocides live, yeah I would have chosen the unga bunga gf too
I mean, I would have. Earlier than that even.
are you neanderthal
Maybe. Maybe it's my neanderthal genes that sing at the thought of wrestling some big-boned, ginger cavewoman?
Doesn't matter, had sex.
Are there any people left with neanderthal ancestry? I knew a guy in highschool who definitely looked like one.
yes, most of us, basically all of eurasia, and anyone descended from eurasia that now lives abroad
a long winded way of saying "everyone but africans"
