Extensive studies have found an uncomfortable truth about the difference between DNA of Sephardim and Ashkenazim. And that is that while they share close to identical DNA on the Y chromosome, which is on the paternal side, on the X chromosome which is the maternal side Ashkenazim have some European non Jewish ancestry. And we do not even need DNA to tell us this as Ashkenazim are the only Jews where blond hair and light colored eyes are quite common. These features are non existent among any other types of Jews. So the source of those features are clearly not from yidden, and DNA tests prove this. That during some era in their history they were megayer non Jewish women and took them for wives.
