Ah yes, it's just that I heard someone say that and it got me thinking. The conversation went more or less like this, "Oh! Do you know if you have any Asian origins? Your eyes are slightly slanted." And then a quick remark, "Oh I hope you don't mind me saying that!", which pictures well the word's possible negative connotations, which I wasn't aware of at the time. So thanks again.
'Feline' and 'almond-shaped' both sound alluring by the way. :eyes:
