    well my green/grey/blue eyes are fairly rare, but yeah light eyes are sexier.

      Blue eyes are continuing to become less common among American children, with only one out of every six or 16.6% of the total population, and 22.3% of the White population having blue eyes
      And yet on Apolyton, it looks like everyone here has blue eyes Apolyton is crazy whitebread.

        This pic was made famous because of the girl's mesmerizing brown eyes. Right Alby?

            Not trolling: Left-handed people earn more than right-handed people, blue eyed people earn more than brown eyed people.

            I am left-handed and blue-eyed.

                Those aren't blue eyes.

                And like I said, this is nothing about social acceptance of blue eyes. It's about blue eyes being a handicap that I want you to admit

                  It's not a handicap. It's by far a net benefit.

                  And green eyes are also stunning.

                  My SO has amazing green eyes, as luck would have it.

                      There was a marked difference in the effect of eye black on those with blue versus non-blue eyes. This may be an example of the operation of Weber's Law of Just Noticeable Differences, or JNDs. This law states that for a change in intensity to be noticeable, the change must be proportional to the original intensity (4). In the case of glare arising from the cheek, its effect in reducing contrast is proportional to the existing level of ambient glare. Blue-eyed individuals, because they have less iris pigment to screen out unwanted light, have a greater level of intraocular scatter (light reflected within the eye) than non-blue-eyed people. Thus, for blue-eyed individuals, glare arising from the cheek should be less detectable than for individuals with darker irises. If glare is less detectable for the former, then eliminating or reducing it with eye black will have less of an effect than if the glare were more detectable, as is the case for non-blue-eyed people.
                      Clearly this is completely awful news and complete negates that blue eyes are almost universally voted the most attractive.

                        No. It's just a recent anecdote for a scientifically proven phenomenon. Less iris pigment results in more glare.

                          More blue results in more sex. Also scientifically and anecdotally proven.

                                Harumph. I have brown eyes but I am infinitely more handsome than you, and far more modest.
