I think both his eyelids look double.. you can quite clearly see there is a crease/fold. Are you referring more to that his skin kinda hangs/hoods over the fold/crease? My bf gets that when he gets tired, I think the skin around his eyes go a bit puffy and makes him look more chinese as he kinda loses the double folded-ness. Oh, you are talking about the the skin that folds on your eyelids. I thought it has something to do with your eye shape or something. I think I have double..but sometimes its can be single or double depending on how much sleep I get or when im drunk..and as of lately I've been taking a lot of test, because its finals week here at school. I have one more this tuesday.. microbiology.. pray for me ... it totally sucks..and then I have to move out by the 25th out of my apartment/dorm on campus, but It should be a fun summer though.... btw, I took off the pic, because I don't want a pic of me floating around online.. people might put my face on somebody's body or make an art from it. like what I do on other people..haha jk, but I'll be glad to abide if you request it.. Smark: You have double upper eyelid Your right eye has a parallel crease Your left eye has a tapered crease Zaf: You have a double upper eyelid Your left eye has a tapered crease Simmie: You are a silly willy haha, thanks David and Simmie for making me self conscious about my two different eyes..lol.. Yeah, I think that simmie is a silly willy.. she was gonna be on my bad side, but the smile melt my heart..

BUT compare his eyes to a caucasian.
There is a HUGE difference.
Which is why I say that my eyes are a double/single cross. Because they are.
They are double but not quite.
To me, aftershocks eyes don't look double, they look like they have a fold but not....properly. If I saw those eyes, they are definitely asian. Do u see what I mean? As I said, maybe it is the brow.
What is wrong with having single fold eyelids aftershock? You take it like it's an insult. My housemate is Irish (but ethnically chinese) and she has properly single fold eyelids and I think they look great. Really mysterious. Oh and thanks for the compliment.

Yes, his eyes will be different from a 'typical Caucasian'.
Many Asians have double eyelids...ranging from 50% - 70%. There are simply other factors that determine whether one's eyes look "Asian" or "Caucasian"....how deep the eye scoket, whethere there are creases in the lower eyelid, the shape of the palpebral fissure, the presence or absence of a crease in the upper eyelid and it's shape (tapered, lateral, parallel), colour of the pupil etc.....that's all.
Smark eyes look Asian to you because of a whole cluster of factors. But he still has a double upper eyelid.

I don't think of it as an insult or take offense..lol..actually, I think that single fold eyelids are more attractive on girls...haha...I mean..what is really the significance of single or double fold eyelids? Does it have to do with race? I know now that the norm for filipino are double eyelids that is why they tend to look like polynesian/hawaiian. When you say asians in the US, three countries comes to mind Japan, China and Korea (east asia) which the majority of the population tend to have single fold eyelids. In the Uk, when you say asians it tends to be Indians/Pakistani (south asia) which more likely to be double fold eyelids. The different asian ethnic groups are mix with double and single, so i don't know...When I say you are on my bad side, I was teasing you. haha lol .. lol, Im seriously confused! ahhh, wth...

i actually went searching for a pic of asian and caucasian eyelids to post on here for comparison.
Then I realised what I was doing, slapped myself and told myself to get a life.
Now im doing fine with therapy.

Oh and thanks for the compliment. you're so dumb. double doesn't mean white. double means double. you can have asian looking eyes that have a fold. about half the world's asian population has a fold. they still look asian.

you're so dumb. double doesn't mean white. double means double. you can have asian looking eyes that have a fold. about half the world's asian population has a fold. they still look asian. i think your brain has a fold. And I would avoid insulting one of the more senior members of this board unless you have more sense and are above the age of 13.

It's great being dumb, living life when you're ignorant is so much better!! (as epistemologists will also maintain).
What I mean by double/single cross is that it is a double but not quite because of the positioning...like the way a single fold eyelid would be positioned.

I agree with you though. Anyways..I have those tapering-crease folds that are quite common to Asians. However, a lot of people have told me that my eyes somehow make me look less Asian and more mixed.

^ see that is what I would call a cross between a single and a double further proof of your dumbness. the eye you are talking about is simply a double. white people are not the only ones who have double eye lids. an eye not looking like a typical white eye doesn't make the shape any less double. maybe you should stop worrying about what to claim other peoples eyes as and just get your own eyes checked.

^ Has life being getting you down? Maybe u should try a few meditating sessions and try learning about positive energy.
I explained my reasoning and my "ordinary" knowledge (something u would only know about if you understood what epistemology entails- anyone guess what I'm revising right now?) in my last post. I didn't say I was "right"- I never made any claims to that. Maybe you should stop assuming premises that are there and then maybe there will be some validity to your claims of my "dumbness".
And as I said, maybe it is better to be dumb, as being dumb implies ignorance, and ignorance implies bliss in my opinion. None of this skeptical hypothesis rubbish.

For my eyes, most of the time, the crease starts right at the corner of my eye, but sometimes, the crease goes "higher" up, depending on the amt of sleep or the amt of alcohol I've consumed the previous night. J/k abuot the alcohol bit, but this is me left eye when the crease doesn't start at the corner of my eye.

^ Actually my eyes change after too much alcohol/too little sleep, most people's get smaller in general.
And my lips always look really really red when hungover. That baffles me.
