Talk:Brooke Shields

The statement of heritage pedigree is ridiculous
Hello everyone! I just want to leave it here stated that giving so much importance to the fact that "Her mother was of English, German, Scotch-Irish, French Canadian and Welsh descent, while her father had English, French, German, Irish, and Italian ancestry," (and what follows in the article) is totally ridiculous, in my opinion. Its usefulness to the reader is very questionable. It reminds of a trend you see throughout the world outside Europe, of people getting out of their way to establish their association/connection to European culture and ethnicity, for reasons that could go from prestige to the question of civilization/barbarism to eugenics. We probably should be making at least some effort to counteract that old trend. Zatrp (talk) 00:14, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
