['ASIAN EYES' ARE MORE COMMON THAN YOU THINK]
The stereotypical Asian eye - the ones that are small, slanted and often with a monolid (single eyelid). These can ONLY be seen in Asians.
...ok, not exactly true.
Just like how there are Asian people who have larger, non-squinty eyes; there also exist white people or black people who do have these squinty, Asiatic eyes.
But just how common is it among non-Asian people, and why do they even have it?
In this video, I'll get into the different countries and ethnic groups from all over the world that you may not expect to have this characteristic.
There will also be examples from some well-known celebrity faces!
If you want to find out what kind of 'Asian Eyes' you have, click our previous video on the topic. In it, we cover the truth behind apparent slanted eyes or small Asian eyes, hooded eyes (common in Caucasian eyes), as well as the different types of Asian epicanthic folds (epicanthal fold).
