Did you try searching under "epicanthal fold"?

[edit] "epicanthic fold" may be the more common term [/edit]

Probably because we didn't evolve in the same conditions as they did.

I only have squinty eyes when I'm drunk and about to sleep So I can't really say why. I guess it's those pesky southern chinese d00dz who everyone thinks is the normal chinese people all over the place (although us middle-east-coast-chinese people are much more :krad: )


edit: i'm stupid and drunk and forgot what forum i was on

They lived for thousands of years in an area which tends to get lots of sun.

sun=bright

brightness=squinty eyes

evolution, see.

from what ive heard, is that oriental people migrated from north asia.

the eyes developed in such a shape, to protect against the glare on snow/ice and harsh weather.
