Hate to be a party pooper
Hi all,
The ancestry hypothesis sounds really interesting, though, I think it's highly unlikely. I'm Japanese. As far as I know, there's no German in my family, but I've had TOS for over 8 years. I don't know the specific prevalence but I'm sure there are a lot of non-German-descent TOSers in other Asian countries as well as here (in Japan).
Search PubMed for TOS. You'll see the researches regarding TOS have been conducted in various countries (I found the study conducted in "Ethiopia") .

This means that TOS has affected many people regardless of ethnicity.
