Do you have earwax? I don’t have earwax unless I am sick.

This post is for casual conversation if you don’t feel like making a post of your own.

    … The ear wax thing is wild. Is this a known phenomenon? Does your PCM know you don’t have ear wax? Did they tell you that during an exam? How did you find out?

      I can stick a qtip in my ear and dig around as much as possible and the qtip will be as clean as when it went in.

      Usually the no earwax gene is found in East Asian populations. I am however as white as they come.

        I had always heard that the East Asian populations tended to have very dry ear wax. I guess it never occurred to me it was possible to just not have any.
