I don’t like people with crossed eyes at all, and it doesn’t look attractive to me…but most of the pictures here don’t seem to be cross-eyed at all. Do you guys mean something else? When I think of cross-eyed, I think of the eyes towards the center, almost pointing at each other. Do you mean when one eye is drifting? I think that’s creepy and my favorite kind of guy has eyes that look straight on, right into your eyes and your soul.
Yeah, I’m having the same reaction as you, Anaamika. The one eye drifting thing–is that a lazy eye?
Like this, maybe?
Not really. I think she’s just looking up.
Regarding Michaela Conlin in posts #8 and 10 and 12(which are old, from April), it’s not that she’s looking to the side or that one eye goes in a different direction, I think she has one eye actually higher on her face than the other. It’s pretty obvious in that photo, but you can see it in other images also.
Editing to agree with Anaamika, lots of these people look totally “normal”. Doesn’t everyone have some degree of crosseyedness, (I forget the technical term), but no one’s eyes point straight forward like headlights.
Dude, I go absolutely bonkers for a hot woman with slightly crossed eyes. It’s so f-in sexy! I found out recently that my Dad is the same way. We had never talked about it so it must run in the family. I think I figured out why I think it’s so sexy… when you get really close to a girl, just before you kiss, her eyes cross if they are still open and she is looking at your mouth. That is super hot. So if a girl’s eyes are already crossed when you see her from far away, you get that same feeling you get just before you are about to kiss. Keep in mind that I am talking about SLIGHTLY crossed eyes…not super crossed or wall-eyed.
No it’s not attractive.
The Mayans considered strabismus attractive, so they arranged beads or something to dangle right in front of a baby’s nose, so the kid would grow up cross-eyed.
Maybe it’s an instinctual thing from our caveman days. Pretty women with slightly crossed eyes are still attractive AND easy to chase down.
I find crossed eyes jarring at first. But I get used to them easily. I end up locking eyeballs with a woman who has them crossed. Many women seem to prefer men looking at their eyes, so maybe they find it advantageous if they’re not sensitive about it. Wild eye is a little harder to deal with, but these are trivial characteristics, something I might notice at first, but would quickly forget about.
I heard there’s a cross eyed bear named Gladly.
I’m not a guy, but popped in to point out that on most of the linked photos, you can tell the woman isn’t really cross-eyed. Look carefully at where the lights reflect off their eyes, and where that reflection is in relation to the pupil. If it’s in the same spot on both eyes, they may appear slightly cross-eyed but actually their eyes are perfectly aligned.
We learned this trick with Moon Unit - as a toddler it looked a lot like she had one eye pointing somewhat outward. Had her checked out by an ophthalmologist, who said she was fine and mentioned the reflection trick.
Who is best buds with Lady Mondegreen.
Didn’t she used to go out with Richard Stanz?
Yes. I had an operation when I was in grade 6 to correct it, and I can still move my right eye slightly separately if I try. Strabismus.
I was thinking it was a primative caveman thing also. The women go cross eyed after you clunk them over the head with your club and they’re ready be dragged by the hair back to your cave.
“Hubba-hubba, there’s a pre-clunked one for Gronk!”
I’m obviously 10 years late to the party here, but Fifties actress Marie Windsor seems to be ever-so-slightly walleyed, and she’s sexy as hell.
This topic was okay ten years ago, but is uncomfortably objectifying of women, and doesn’t match our current standards. I’m closing it.
