Men who have narrow / squinty eyes deemed attractive? Explain

if you look at who is deemd commercially handsome - they all have quite squinty eyes, why is this deemed attractive . this seems to transcend across differnt races too

Can anyone explain?

see below brad pitt, tom cruise, tyrese beckford, david bekham etc

Do they? I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find 'attractive' guys whose eyes aren't 'squinty'.

It's because it's associated with high testosterone :yes:

Actually I read something once where people squinted in pictures were deemed more attractive than the ones who did not.

Is it the same with girls, where bigger eyes are deemed more attractive?

yes, the opposite is undoutabley true for women - so the question remains why is this - do attractive males have some distant east asian genes in their background?

you just need to google, the pictures chosen for publication of these so called 'superhunks' have them looking quite squinty

there must be some sort of anthropological or cultural explanation

They just happen to have narrow eyes. You can find many others who don't have narrow eyes who are just as hot.

Many factors contribute to how attractive someone is but I personally do find squinty eyes attractive, especially if they're green or blue :colondollar:

But that doesn't mean that I wouldn't be attracted to someone with different shaped or coloured eyes.

I can't explain why this is. I do have quite squinty green eyes myself, so maybe it's a tribal thing :confused:

It's just a pose, the kind magnum/blue steel are parodies of. Women do it too, usually looking upwards. I'd guess at it being called 'come hither eyes', but I didn't study photography tbh.
