I don't see how Karl's post is relevant. In Europeans, most Epicanthic folds are lost before adult hood. Sometimes due to many reasons, they aren't fully lost though, or somebody can develop one at an old age. Epicanthic folds are just an adaption of extra fat due to light and harsh weathering conditions. There is reason to believe that any "genes" for them were in the earliest of Humans, especially when you look at the Bushmen. It is only when the environment calls for it, that you would retain it, as well as later generations retaining them due to a high incidence. There are different types of Epicanthic folds, but none is exclusive to one race as you tried to point out.
    I seem to have a median fold.


    Many Scandinavians have the 'external ephicantus'

    I think that race-mixing, coal-burning slut on his right needs to go too. Pity, she would have made a decent tr00 Aryan breeding machine.

    People like that can be and are found in Germany and Austria. Another example is Klaus Brandauer.

    Old age may very well be a factor, but even in that picture one can see a pseudo mongoloid appearance. In fact, Klaus is used as an example of an East Baltid here http://www.theapricity.com/snpa/rg-east.htm

    Günther Beckstein. Even considering his age, I still find his eye folds very pronounced.
