Hazel eyes/medium brown hair is what appeals to me at this moment. ;D So you prefer white girls? Or Yigal's supposedly non-white Bollywood type.

You probably have hazel eyes, but it doesn't really show in that pic. Hazel eyes tend to appear brown in some light and green in other light.

Grey-blue eyes aren't the most common. More common than that are dark blue eyes and the light blue variant. Grey is far less common than blue and usually forms the minority in such a mix. Perhaps "greyblue" isn't the correct description. Try "muddy blue". They're not clear and beautiful (well, not to me). And I think I've only seen one person with dark blue eyes (don't know if anyone else would consider them darkblue). They were darker than these eyes, but yet distinctly blue: Have you any examples of darkblue eyes? Here, light blue seems to be in as much abundance as "muddy blue". I prefer light blue to the ugly blue colour. Apparently, blue eyes denote sincerity and intellect; grey ones are seen as calculating; brown ones imply flirtation in youth and loyalty with age; and green ones sexual creativity and jealousy. Go figure. Whoa, according to who? In Sweden we have a saying that one who is very naive and gullible is "blue eyed" (blåögd). Wonder where it comes from...

It doesn't show particularly well in this picture, but he definitely has dark blue eyes.

My husband's eyes are what I call "muddy blue": Comparison: Light blue eyes: And grey eyes (belonging to my half-Swedish niece): Makes any sense? I know blue can vary a lot depending on the lighting, but hubby's eyecolour doesn't change.

Wonder where it comes from... by dark blue you must be meaning dark blue -translucent - omnipresent - these color eyes might have a 'piercing' quality to them - despite the ominpresent oceanic - heavenly blue tone. that guy you posted looks like a scotch - irish american - here in the states they have the similar pigmental features - ocassionally thicker - wavier hair and prominent - wide open grey or blue eyes.

Freaky? hehe Yes, before I met him I always preferred brown or black eyes. His eyes are just huge O.O and convey so much expression and kindness. So now I am a convert

For whatever reason certain people with light or mixed eyes can change eye colour. My mother was born with medium-light blue eyes which became a strong green in her late teens. They vary in intensity depending on mood. My father has blue-grey eyes (a very British colour). I have grey-blue eyes, in which the grey is steadily taking over. *NOTE: eye colour can change drastically in different lighting, of course. Annunaki, I would call your husband's eyes medium-light blue. Dark blue is common in the British isles and comes across as slightly purplish.

To be frank, all girls I have ever had were true blondes (or true blonde-red hair) with blue or green eyes, usually "northern Germany or northern Poland type". I like the colors, dark hair European ladies are boring black and whites for me. I am not able to be in love with black hair girls, even when they are nice and sexy, even when they are chasing me.
I am even able to be in love with blonde girl even when she is not so nice. When there is a average blonde (of certain type) and nice black hair girl, I always prefer a blonde. It works automatically, I am not able to influence my decision consciously...
One detail for those from no-blondes regions: nordic blondes are good lovers, they are really active...

Interestingly, I have noticed (and been told by others) that my dark brown eyes at times look black. I suspect it is just because my pupils are more dilated. Obviously in low light or when I am wearing black this is more often the case, but I have noticd it also changes when I am feeling things with a certain intensity. I think next time someone comments on that I'll try to get an estimate of pupil size. Also I have noticed that my blue/green eyed chameleon husband has relatively gigantic pupils at most times, so 'll check to see if that affects my perception of his eye color, too. It may be unrelated but now I am curious ;D

P.S.--Coming from the United States, I always associated blond hair with the poorest and most backward of our populace. The purest bastions of Anglo-Saxondom are also the poortest in America: Appallachia and Mississippi--no one's idea of America's cultural centers. So, for me, I always cringed at the butter-blond hair of the fat truck-stop waitress or the urine-colored locks of the sleazy strumpet. And who doesn't associate the white-blond hair of Appallachian children with poverty and stupidity? P.S. You're full of crap. Parts of New England and Utah have the highest percentage of people with English ancestry. Appalachia has a higher percentage of people with Scots-Irish ancestry, and it certainly doesn't have more blonde people than other sections of the country. Mississippi has the highest percentage of Black people. Actually, my ancestors settled in the land of "poverty and stupidity". My father had a genius-level IQ and his brother is a self-made millionaire, and they are/were...blondes. (gasp) Contrary to your expert opinion, many of the people in the region have dark features. Some of that might be due to NA ancestry. My mother, grandmothers, and great grandmothers all had black hair. Blondes are rare in my family. I take it that you're not a blonde BTW. (gratuitous sarcasm) I wouldn't associate English ancestry with blondes necessarily. If you want to find American blondes, go to where all the Swedes migrated, somewhere like Minneapolis. There you will be showered with them... and also with huge ticks that look like spiders
