      In the "Who Shot Mr Burns" episode of The Simpsons when they find Simpson DNA at the crime scene Marge insists this doesn't rule her out as a suspect because "When I married your father I took his name, his DNA, everything" I've always wondered about a world where that's truehttps://twitter.com/_hoetato/status/1221493724938526721 …

      my uncle is explaining to me, a final year genetic engineering student, that preferring a boy child is not sexist because "boys carry the most important genetic components of the family line" and "a girl's genetic code changes when she is married off to another family" i'm in awe

      They do say that if someone gets pregnant there's some genetic exchange between the parent and the fetus over the course of the pregnancy but I don't think it's to the point that it'd show up on a DNA test

          Oh, it actually is! Fetal cells get into the parent's blood and create microchimeras. XX parents who've had XY children can have bits of Y DNA in some body parts for the rest of their life.https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/babys-cells-can-manipulate-moms-body-decades-180956493/ …

          It probably won't show up on a swab DNA test, though.

          It's not pregnancy. It's saying "I do" at your wedding. Weddings are just complex rituals to cast a spell that changes the genes of the woman. And ownership, I guess.

          If that were true then I'd think it should be functionally impossible to trace genetic maternal lineage across generations (at least not w/out paternal genetics to contrast against), and I've never seen any data that suggests that's the case.

          I think that would really depend on where the DNA sample comes from.

          I mean, if it wasn't something that periodically came up in DNA tests, we wouldn't be aware of the phenomenon at all.
