Just so you know, traditionally, men with more slanted eyes than others are considered more powerful looking. Traditional art always portrayed Generals, Kings, and government officials to have really slanted eyes.
So, I guess it has something to do with cultural and sexual selection as well.
By the way, I'm east asian, if you haven't noticed from my avatar.
