Do Anglos have small, slanted eyes?

[Graham]

Not slanted, but British Isles people have smaller eyes compared to the Meds or middle East and South Asians. Hooded eyes are common that may give the appearance.

I think what you're referring to is something more European than Mongol. The first assumption to a new anthrohead is to attribute it to the Mongols, though I do not believe it is. It certainly is attributable to Mongol admixture in a person's recent ethnic heritage, with a recent Mongol ancestor, but to lay this eye-feature completely on Mongol heritage is too knee-jerk an assumption.
One interesting wondering I've had recently is that eye-liddedness is a Middle-Eastern trait, brought into Europe by the first farmers, who lived among the native hunter-gatherers, as modern research has begun to illuminate.

This is interesting, you are correct I am new here.

My question, if it is Middle Eastern, I am surprised that Spanish people do not have these eyes, usually they have big round eyes, but I would imagine they have more Middle Eastern influence than Nordids?

Yes I think just from my own non-scientific observation that British in particular have small eyes, but maybe I am wrong...have you noticed this more than with other Nordids? Why do you think it is?

[Graham]

The Scandos have small eyes too.

Geogy is more cromag, which is what you describe. The rest are pretty mongy. The eyes themselves have folds but are very shallow and very forward-facing.

What do you think is the origin of this phenotype among these European people? Kreyserling looks Chinese in that picture, but maybe also it is the beard.

Hugh Grant and his Grandad are good example of the hooded eyes as you can see. East Asians it is a more of the eye lid skin itself.

I can imagine three possibilities

1- They're influencied from what alpines was before this fatty representation people like to give to them.
2- Existence of another european sub-euro racee linked with nobility carrying this characteristics
3- Tatar from Golden Horder mix with european ruler class

I think alpines was something close to this
