Why do slanted eyes exist?
I can understand other racial traits, like black people having more melanin because of the climate, white people being really fair looking, etc, but why do asians have slanted eyes?Whats the evolutionary benefit of it?
Why is OP so dumb? Whats the evolutionary benefit of it?
What is the evolutionary benefit of being retarded and a faggot? Why do you exist?
>>9018416
The evolutionary advantage is that it's fuckin sexy.
Not all evolutionary traits are about "advantages".
Some just happen.
Why?
Because someone with other successful genes also happened to have other 'random' genes/mutations they passed on as well.
However, the same genes are also seen in similar groups, as Indigenous Siberians.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_peoples_of_Siberia
Some have theorized such eyes evolved to cope with "snow blindness".
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photokeratitiz
So the Siberian population passed it on to Eastern People's, Indigenous North Americans, etc.

Continued...
Here is an example of "Snow Blindness Goggles" that indigenous people use in both Siberia and in North America.
They are closely related to Southern Asians.

No wonder it seems like so many leafs are asian these days
>>9018416
No one knows. It was probably a mutation that spread because it's a dominant trait. Not everything needs an evolutionary benefit.
The epicanthic fold is found not just in asians, but also in africans, europeans, all over the world basically.
Living mostly at locations next to the coast, this trait is protecting their eyes from heavy winds.
>>9018416
the black/white thing makes no sense either
when it's hot you want to minimize absorbed energy and white reflects a lot of light whereas black absorbs it, so blacks should be present in cold climates and whites in hot climates

>>9018615
melanin protects from the UV exposure only
africans being on average much taller and thinner compared to for example short and thick inuit people is the difference in evolutionary heat absorption
>>9018603
>Living mostly at locations next to the coast
how is mongolia even remotely next to a coast.
ot kazakstan.or most of china.
this cant be the explanation
>>9018431
confirmed. There is sexual selection for eye slant
>>9018640
It is. You're assuming that there haven't been any migration periods. Living now in central China does not mean, that their ancestors lived exclusively there, too.
>>9018416
Asians gonna Asian.
>>9018648
Because if you even mention evolution (or climate change and some other topics) you get tons of triggered people on /sci/. Its been like this since at least 2011, and I still have no idea why, or where these people come from.
>>9018416
Look up "epicantic fold".
Short story: it is about protection against cold climates. Also the skin colour is due to a sub cutaneous fat layer that also protects against the cold.
insulation for the eyes, asians evolved in ice age steppe
How stupid are people ITT?
They evolved in a windy climate, it was a way to protect their eyes
>>9018603
How did it get selected though? Did it simply piggyback a cooler mutation that actually provided attractivity/fertility/longevity advantages?
Genetic drift that reoccurred, the Khoisan of Africa have slanted eyes while having the oldest living genome.
It's possible that an older population in Africa related to or ancestors of the Khoisan migrated out dispersed into eurasia and the population that went east maintained that trait.

Sexual selection.

But you have to put the cum in the pussy for sexual reproduction to work...
So much for sexual selection.
Take LSD. If you really want to die, at least try some psychedlics before you attempt it, especially if you haven't before. Yes there are risks, yes it coul be bad, but the potential benefits are that you get over what ever is making you want to die. IT worked for me. I hope you try it OP.

good post
Incas were superior to europeans.
>>9021382
... because?
>>9021414
Superior relative technology, culture and genetics.
>>9018416
On the highlands and in the deserts of most of Asia, there arent a lot of trees or other shade-granting structures so their eyes developed slants in order to block a portion of the sunlight.

Actually, the melanin system has been implicated towards sexual efficacy. The lack of skin melanin has been linked to lower testosterone and mating inferiority.

True, in fact some traits just come along for the ride when others are selected for.
Like that exercise where they selected friendly, social foxes and chased off the cagey, wild ones for 30 generations. Selecting for friendliness and sociability also brought floppy ears, a more domesticated dog style of breeding cycle. It's the case most used to illustrate the way traits don't necessarily serve any purpose but go with others that might.

melanin is in every fold in your brain, it is used to conserve heat in every arctic animal, which will be black skinned under it's white fur.
Holy shit, Amerifats, drop your racist angst for a few minutes and your iq might start to at least be effective if not any higher.

Sure you are not thinking of melanotan?
Around here it is called "Barbie dope" since it gives a tan, assists in keeping slim and has strongly heightened sex drive as a side effect. It has been used for more than 5 years that I know of, probably much longer in more closed circles.
Why do round eyes exist?

Because with deeper set eyes and a pronounced nose bridge you get more or less the same protective effect.

I remember hearing it blocks glare from snow.
So, no one really knows
>>9018416
God gave the races of man different skin colours and facial characteristics so we'd know not to interbreed. Anal sex is fine...just no miscegenation. Checkmate, atheists.
>>9018416
I don't know if this is true at all but I remember reading that they have smaller eyes because it was ancient belief that evil spirits could enter through people's eyes, therefore people would marry partners with small eyes because the spirits couldn't posses them or whatever.
>>9025357
Why didn't God just make us unable to interbreed in the first place?
Checkmate
>>9018416
Rather related to the fact that asians have their origins in windy, dry plains. Their eyes obviously are beneficial if you want to avoid getting dust in your eyes constantly.
