so we all know that the Nihilist in Big Lebowski had only 9 toes, ("....nihilist with a nine toed girlfriend!" Walter says during the epic fight scene where he bites off the nihilist's ear, I guess that makes him a one eared nihilist with a nine toed girlfriend....) anyway, here is a pic of Halle Berry with 6 toes.
This is not a "defect" - our hominoid ancestors had 6 fingers and 6 toes. It is a dominant trait of humans. Still is. however, in a rare moment of adaptation, the recessive trait of 5 fingers and 5 toes is now prevalent. Not dominant, but prevalent. every once in a while, a child is born with one dominant 6 finger or 6 toe gene, and exhibits what is a dominant human trait. Usually, it is amputated right after birth. In Halle's case, it was not, so she has a 6th toe on one foot. which is dominant, normal for humans, but unusual since most of us have two recessive genes for 5 finger 5 toe expression.
have i cleared that up?
