Why do Chinese people have such small eyes?
<|assistant|>
Many cultures have had different eye-shapes and sizes over the centuries. This can sometimes be attributed to evolution, but it can also be influenced by the environment or even cultural practices. In the case of the Chinese people, the inception of the practice was based on physical traits being associated with wisdom, so people with small eyes were seen as more desirable as marriage partners. This practice was widespread enough to become a cultural ideal.
