Blue has become the most common eye colour in Britain, overtaking the traditionally dominant brown eye colour...

>Blue has become the most common eye colour in Britain, overtaking the traditionally dominant brown eye colour, according to scientists. The researchers suggest that because blue eyes do not improve eyesight, their only evolutionary advantage is to attract more mates; hence becoming more prominent in society. But while attractiveness is a plausible hypothesis for the rise of the blue iris, it has only been conjecture that blue is actually the most appealing eye colour.

>Now new YouGov research finds that blue is in fact the most attractive eye colour – not only in general, but to people from the whole eye colour spectrum.

>Overall, 34% of British people find blue the most attractive eye colour; scores ahead of brown, on 19%. Green eyes, often thought of as rare or mysterious, are considered most appealing by 14%.

>It also turns out that people are not drawn to their own eye to a greater extent than to blue eyes, as blue is found most attractive to people with brown, grey, green, hazel and blue irises.

i wish i had blue eyes

Aren't most Brits blonde and blue eyed?

tfw green eyes and blode hair

Most people have brown hair and blue eyes, it's usually blond as a children but changes as people grow up.

>there are people who don't have blue eyes and brown hair

>blue

>green

>Blue has become the most common eye colour in Britain

How though? Last time I checked the UK was becoming less white and thus less blue-eyed because of the shitloads of immigrants it gets from the 3rd world.

I assumed there were talking from a proper historical context of hundreds of years rather than post war years.

the new brit

perfecto

who the fuck finds brown the most attractive?
is it just butthurt browneyes?

lmao who the fuck cares about eye color

I do but that's because of my yellow fever

>i can't read a fucking chart

>in Italy
Your dick must get so wet

can you?
~20% or so people in each category find brown the most attractive

>look at people in the street
>most people still have blue/grey eyes
pretty nice

That's probably just people saying whichever colour eyes their partner has being the most attractive. Brown is the most common eye colour, so there you go. Imo I think (dark)brown is the least attractive eye colour because it makes it seem like the eyes have one big pupil, like some dog's beady eyes.

Don't think so, both OP's and this article even says that there's no real evolutionary reason for and it's just "down to people finding the colour sexier": mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/britain-now-more-blue-eyed-boys-4133226

>Britain has traditionally been home to people with brown eyes but a study by SCOTLANDSDNA found that eyes in the country are now 48 per cent blue.

>Just 22 per cent now have brown eyes, while 30 per cent have green, according to the study The Blue Eyes Project.

That doesn't seem right though. How the fuck is brown less common than both blue AND green? In a country that's less than 90% white nonetheless.

about 10 percent of the country isn't white and then 10 perfect of the native population have brown eyes?

>green eyes
>hazel eyes
that's just brown

Most maps like pic related seem to put the UK at ~70 "light eyed" which includes grey, blue and green so I guess you're about right. Seems like non-light eyed people just really stand out which makes me think there's more of them than there actually are.

>green = brown

>tfw grey eyes, black hair and pale skin

I was made to be goth. Also any eye color is better than brown or hazel. Brown is rarely pretty.

blue is the natural colour
adding melanin, blue changes to "green", then "hazel", and then brown

that's false

The farther north and east you go in Britain, the blonder and more blue eyed the population becomes (at least supposedly). That part of the country was most heavily settled by the Danes in the middle ages, so it seems plausible to me.

>hazel eyes
feels bad, not that visible, in the darkness they look like normal brown eyes

>brown, literally the color of shit, is considered more attractive than green

Brown can be really dark and give a cute puppy eye effect.
Green is like knock-off blue.

I like green eyes the most actually
I got shitty brown eyes and my brother got my mom's dope ass green/gold eyes that don't even look like a normal human eye color why live

>green is like knock off blue
Hold still, motherfucker

It's true. Mudkin of all shades can't take their eyes off mine.

>entire family has blue eyes
>mine are green
>people think they're brown

>mfw the mighty anglo will soon drink its own ARYAN blood

Green with a thin hazel/amberish rings around the pupil masterrace

These threads are so sad lmao

people who prefer latins over nordics for instance

I have weird brown/green eyes and ginger/black beard.

When inside I look like a typical (albeit pale) barbosa, but once light hits my face, my beard goes full red and my eyes go green because of the contracted irises.

Mako infused eyes master race.

>Blue has become the most common eye colour in Britain

Since when Pakis have blue eyes ?

I'm a "latin" and everyone in my family has blue eyes fuck off

>brown
>most common color eye
>people think it's attractive
in denial. rare=best

>there are people that don't like green eyes
How?

Who cares about eye color?
>so are you an ass or tits guy?
>im an eyecolor-sexual!!

>tfw forest green master race

Wish I had blue eyes
Brown eyes are literally shit

shut up. brown eyes are beautiful

POO

>this is the ugliest eye colour in Britain
rly makes u think

people generally vote for the eye color they have. it's not surprising

Jesus Christ can you please stop embarrassing us, you dolt?

>brown eyes more attractive than green eyes
>blue eyes more attractive than green eyes
What

how does that not make sense?
>people with brown eyes think brown eyes look better
and so on

lol read the fucking chart

>no one likes gray eyes
i just want to be loved

Because the chart in the OP LITERALLY states that that ISN'T true, and that even people with brown/green eyes found blue most attractive. You didn't even read it.

That is literally the point of the article friend.

>how does that not make sense?
>>people with brown eyes think brown eyes look better
>and so on
Did you ignore every part of the OP?

He's saying
>Blue has become the most common eye colour in Britain
Is the reason blue is the most popular.

I have blue eyes but they're so dark no one can tell unless they are very close.

Not that I agree with him obviously, but I can see what his line of thinking was.

That's the best combination though

>people doesn't vote for meme colors like grey and """hazel""" (bet you half the people didn't even know what that means)
>people mostly defaults to mainstream attractive color ie blue or try to damage control by voting their pooh eyes
VERY stupid poll

G*rmanics have very dark blue eyes
Southern europeans like me have the best and brightest shades of blue

>G*rmanics

I'm Anglo though

dumb argie

>brown hair and blue eyes

based

I'm glad you like the combo, I'll be breeding it into your country's genepool.

>N.Frenchies having lighter eyes than S.Bongs

Brown is a warm color, the color of earth, very welcoming. Green is just bizarro blue, a contrarian knock of like the other user said. If you like green you probably like and voted blue.

What do you want to do...?

But I love girls like Belluci but with light eyes. It's just that light-eyed girls are snowniggers with manjaws, the eyes are not to blame. There's really qt eastern euros for example.

I didnt mean I'll rape you, I'm just moving to france to be with my gf.

Then you're not latin, g*rmanic scum

I'm more latin than you'll ever be, mulatto.

>pale
>dark eyes
I'm i a latin?

Anglos are germanic retard

>wanting to come here

you sick cunts

This. Nazis get OUT of latin land.

Sure. Can you get somewhat tanned (not orange) even if it burns first?

Take it back

"""anglos""" are a latinized celtic people tbqhwy

don't talk to me or to my latin brothers, g*rmanic savage

Imagine taking a big steamy shit, then after looking into the bowl, you see the same """""color""""" as your eyes.

Tfw there's a chubby goblin girl in my class that I only like being around because she has piercing ice/blue eyes that look almost inhuman.

Eye color matters. A LOT.

Britonic """celts""" are still snowniggers and they have germanigger language and culture. As germanic as Somalia is black. Less bad doesn't make you good.

She lives there
Fuck off moros & mulatos

You really think the average person would lie about their favorite eye color

>tfw britonic ancestors (since I have breton ancestors)

I am a CELT :)

Stop being descended from literal national socialists. It's the current year.

>The researchers suggest that because blue eyes do not improve eyesight
Wait, do other eye colours improve eyesight?

"""Celt"""
Gauls, Boiis and Celtiberians look ashamed to you from the sky

How did you know my grandparents were franquistas? D:

THESE are real latins, fuck off

>have brown eyes
>gf has blue eyes
Hope our kids at least get green eyes

Blame my gaulish father.

They're less susceptible to damage. Melanin and all that.

if I remember right part of the reason for this is because they sum all the variations on Muhammad while leaving other names different.

(i.e. "John" and "Jon" would be two different names, but "Muhammad", "Mahomet" and "Mohamed" are the same name.)

That or they'll carry the gene.

t. green eyes, brown eyed sister, blue dad, brown mom

light blue eyes can be horrifying desu.
dark blue is okay, but light blue can be soul piercing.

although i think it possibly also varies with hair colour, as (to my mind anyway) it's mostly noticeable as scary in gingers and passes without comment with blonde haired nordic types

I have blue eyes, my wife has brown. We have 3 kids with brown, hazel, and blue eyes.
