23andMe FAQ: What can women learn from 23andMe?

At 23andMe, one of the major concerns we hear from women is that they won’t learn anything about their father’s ancestry. As Josie explains in this video, the analysis that we perform is the same for both men and women, and uses DNA they receive from both parents. In fact, the majority of our features are based on “autosomal” DNA, which is inherited in the same way by everyone.

If you upload your DNA profile to FTdna (supposed to be free) under matches you can seperate the matches using the in common with/not in common with feature to guess which are paternal or maternal matches.
Of course you need to know at least one confirmed relative for it to work.

The jingly music in the background is very annoying. It’s an odd choice when trying to understand genetics.

Unfortunately my father wasn't my brother's dad so without my dad I can't see that...

Dunno, what can men learn from it? Oh wait; there's no white men, u know the ones who do all the real work in any of their TV commercials.
