It's not about gluing your eyes open, but using glue to create an artifical upper eye fold that pretty much all non-asian races have.

They've been selling this stuff for years.

Better they should glue their eyes shut so when I whip out "Emperorer Wang" they don't go blind.

Thatâ??s pretty sickening.

It's funny.

Asians have a different standard of beauty than Europeans. I noticed this when I first went to Japan. Often the girls who look absolutely drop-dead gorgeous to European eyes, are not at all attractive to Japanese men. And, sometimes, the woman Japanese men find amazingly beautiful, we would not find at all attractive.

There is a subset where both Euro and Japanese men find the same girls attractive, but it was fascinating to me: after 4 months there, I was able to identify "beautiful" Japanese women, even though they did nothing for me.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

And I think it is bs that Asians should be insecure about their eyes... they can be really sexy.

I had no idea people even did this to their eyes. It's really interesting to me, sort of an insight into another culture.

Damn, this is sick!

And then I think it's bad for the eye, as you need to be able to wink to keep the eyeball humid.

I think this is the first time I envy of you Mobius.

The Japanese culture does interest me, one day I plan to take a trip to Japan so I experience its culture up close.
