alright boys and girls, let's talk eyes. Specifically: monolids, and why you should probably stop giving every single Asian character a crease So, eyelids with creases in them are referred to as double-eyelids. They're commonly seen in cultures with Bigger eyes, and they're mostly associated with European people. The second eye you see with no visible creases is a monolid- this eye type is most often associated with Asian people, particularly East Asian people (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) Monolids have, however, been often seen as ugly in East Asian cultures, particularly in South Korea, due to colonization and the heavy pushing of Eurocentric beauty ideologies. This gives us double-eyelid surgery, which is done to give people with a monolid the appearance of a double-lid. Now, an important thing to realize is that monolids are not ugly- they're eyelids, man. The sole reason people even think that is largely because of colonization and racism.
