Children definitely are not carbon copies of their parents, and that is very noticeable.

What if the societal prejudices that seemingly complimented your genetics are not nearly as beneficial for someone else with a different set of genetics?

"Someone else" could include perhaps even a relative in your own family, or perhaps even one of your own children? 

Did you conscientiously choose to go along with societal standards that are equally beneficial for all the genetic possibilities?

Probably not.

Or if so, that's very surprising, because it's definitely not what is usually encouraged or rewarded.
