They/them. Marxist-Leninist. Don't reblog my posts if you're going to be a Liberal about it.

a lot of stuff happened but i'm choosing to remember 2025 as the year i found out people with green eyes exist irl

couple things:

  1. yes i spent my entire life until a few months ago assuming green eyes were an urban legend
  2. "what about all the fictional characters with green eyes" thought it was a trope like with anime protagonists having naturally purple hair
  3. i found out by watching Desperate Housewives (one of the actors has green eyes and it threw me off)
  4. (i had never watched Desperate Housewives until that point bc i assumed it was reality tv, of the same genre as Real Housewives Of Metropolitan Areas franchise)
  5. i still haven't seen green eyes irl, i am simply aware now that they actually exist
  6. "have you really never met a person with green eyes." i didn't say that. it's possible I've met dozens. my autistic ass has spent decades elevating eye contact avoidance to a sublime art form.

did more research and now I'm sort of leaning back to my original stance that green eyes don't actually exist? people say "green" but all i'm seeing is eyes that are blue-and-brown. can i get some example photos so i know what we're talking about???

I assume this is what people think of when they imagine green eyes. Whether they look green or not is mostly a lighting thing from what I've seen. I have gray eyes that can look green in the right light.

Green eyes are also the rarest eye color period, so I don't actually blame you for not knowing they existed at all.

these are just blue with brown/yellow mixed in? i have those type of eyes, i assume they're pretty common. definitely less rare than people with 100% blue eyes with no mix-ins

blue with yellow mixed in

and what do you get when you mix blue and yellow

I think you might have green eyes

they're not green they are blue and yellow that's two different colors neither of those colors is green this is what im talking about people say "green eyes" and then it turns out they're just talking about eyes with multiple colors (blue, brown, yellow) none of which is actually green!!!!!!!!!

As of writing you have a little over 24 hours give or take to learn that grey eyes exist as well!

That's grey with a hint of blue.

my outer irises are the same damn shade, i would be aware if that was gray, but it is not it is WISHY WASHY BLUE

Clearly the only solution to this is to post a blurry closeup of your own eyes for us to argue about

*sighs*

FUCK ALL OF YOU

they are pale BLUE and YELLOW my phone camera is just shitty they are two separate colors part blue and part yellow two colors
