      I'm thinking blue-eyed is rather insulting in japanese speech, can't say where, but seem to recall reading about it. The basic untrustworthines, etc.
      I've allways wanted to play "Russ Meyer's Civilization"

        Hm. Blonde = stupid, blue-eyed = excessively trusting. We've sure got a beautiful picture of the archetypical Scandinavian ....

              Considering you're from a country whose chief claim to fame is having invented french fries, I think you should shut up.

                AFAIK, having lighter-colored eyes makes you more sensitive to light.

                        Besides, I have blue eyes and also a bunch of blond locks. I'd be a very good Swede.

                          Yeah, sure does. It can be quite irritating.

                          Mine are blue/green/? (sometimes they even look like they have some yellow in them) ... they change depending on what I'm wearing or the lighting.

                          Whenever I complain about bright light, glare, etc, my wife (dark brown eyes) is like "umm, sorry, didn't notice."

                            I'm fairly light-sensitive at the best of times, but with my present medication it gets ridiculous. As a matter of fact, I'm wearing sunglasses as I type this.

                              I doubt blue eyes have any real difference from any other color eyes. The amount of pigmontation we're talking about is trivial.

                                Well, sure, my "evidence" is anecdotal, but it sure seems that way, Oerdin.
