why blue-eyed guys unconciously prefer blue-eyed girls...

because if any of their kids don't have blue eyes then he knows he's not the father

all children of a guy and girl who both have blue eyes must also have blue eyes

so if you don't have blue eyes and both your parents do, the person you think is your father is not your father :?

blue-eyed guys have evolved to subconciously prefer blue-eyed girls for this reason

interesting eh bro

You know, if you provided a link as evidence, I might actually believe this.

I think your evidence article was written by 'tards.

"Their studies, published in the Springer journal Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, show that blue-eyed men find blue-eyed women more attractive than brown-eyed women. According to the researchers, it is because there could be an unconscious male adaptation for the detection of paternity, based on eye color."

It could be because we live in a Euro-centric, White-Is-Beautiful culture, ESPECIALLY IN Tromso, Norway, where this study was done.

"If both parents have brown eyes, a quarter of the children will have blue eyes, and three quarters will have brown eyes."

I think about 5 billion Asians, Africans, and Indigenous would love to prove this wrong.

I thought of that as well. Also, the article seems to assume everyone is either blue-eyed or brown-eyed. Odd.

And as far as I know your genes mix to make your eye color so a brown eyed and a blue eyed parent can have a child with hazel eyes the most uncommon color of eyes and the same goes for green they used to think that it was just one or the other parents eyes but I am pretty sure I saw a show on discovery that proved that wrong proving that they mix :-k But I could be wrong don't yell at me I might cry

i agree the study and the conclusion do apply to a european culture...it does not apply to non euro-cultures where the incidence of blue eye colour is far less (i assume that's what you mean)...that doesn't invalidate it - how would you suggest that 5 billion non-europeans would prove it wrong? i don't get your point...and thank you for your outstandingly correct use of that apostrophe to denote abbreviation, that made my night, no actually getting to my highest ever CC score tonight made my night but the apostrophe was a close second

btw all you blue-eyed people, you're all descended from a common ancestor

I recently learned that every human has blue eyes when he or she is born, they only change colour when other pigmentation gets in, it can get out again e.g. if the eye is being operated on.
I was told this by a person who has differently coloured eyes, and the blue one had been operated on, so I guess she knew what she was talking about.
