ladolcevita. Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Lots of Southeastern Asians have natural double eyelids, well, more than other Asian countries. I'm Filipino and I have big eyes with double eyelids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twix0rz Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I am 100% Chinese and i have monolids however both my sisters and mom have double lids. So it just depends. But if we have to pick a nationality, i think people from southern parts of Asia have more double lids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Noodlebowl Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Everyone in my Fam have caucasian sized eyes. We're Cambodian. My eyes are smaller than everyone else's though... I got my Dad's Chinese genes. Everyone in my family makes fun of me. But, Uh. I haven't seen any Cambodians without a fold. Even though I have the smallest eyes in my family, I still have them.

Guest kittyy Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Im Korean and my dad has double eye lids, while my mom doesn't, yet all her siblings has natural double eyelids. I only have natural double eyelid on my left eye. I had to get surgery on the right side to match.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xRiChan Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I'm Indian and Korean, and I have double eyelids and so does my mom. But her mom has mono lids. For Indians, it depends were you're from. I know SOUTH indians have double eyelids, but some East and alot of North Indians have monolids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sunye~ Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 all asian nationalities have a certain percentage of people with natural double eyelids. whether or not you have it depends on genes. the stereotypes of asians most of the time stresses single eyelids so that's why it seems like most asians don't have double eyelids. it's half and half in my family -- i'm japanese. there's a balanced number of people on my paternal and maternal sides who have double eyelids. i happen to have single eyelids but i'm slowly developing double eyelids.

Guest toGETherONE Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 1/2 Viet + 1/2 Chinese here so that's another count. ^ , ^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest krystaliu Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I'm pretty sure it depends on your genes. XD I mean, my sister and I are both 100% Chinese and I have double lids all the time while she has double lids only in the morning, or when she rubs her eyes. ... actually, double lids are for every ethnicity, just more common in some than others. ^^; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disfunktional. Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 The majority of viet people I know, including myself have double eyelids. They're not as big as Filipino eyelids but they're there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bitterworld0.0 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Myanmar ( Burmese ) all most everyone of us have double eyelids without sugery @@ which are really big =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest r_keikei Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 im mixed singaporean (mum has double) and chinese (dad has single). All three of my siblings have single eyelids and i have double and its funny cause when you pair my sister and i together we dont even look related. It's just genetics, though i remember reading that some asian communities have single eyelids because over the years fat/skin accumulated there to protect eyes from the harsh sun. Often those asians in rural parts have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butters Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 I'm viet and chinese. most of the viets i know have double eyelids naturally including my family. so does my chinese side. i don't think double eyelids are specific to one ethnicity... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest that.ordinary-girl Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I think it's all genetics haha I'm Chinese and I have natural double eyelids, but I know some Chinese friends who only have a single eyelid. My older sister has a double eyelid on one eye and triple on the other haha, it's actually pretty funny some of my Viet, Flip and Korean friends have single eyelids while the others have 2 or more!

Guest Eishi Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I'm Chinese and I have double eyelids on one eye and semi-ish double eyelids on the other eye (does that even make sense? xD). But I think a lot of Filipinos have double eyelids and most have creases too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
