Scientists have recently discovered that certain physical traits of our eyes actually indicate elements of our personality. The iris has something called “crypts,” which are basically pits, and the number of crypts we have actually signals how likely we are to be tender, warm and trusting. The iris also has “furrows,” which are curving lines ringing the outer edge of the iris; the amount of furrows in the iris indicates how likely we are to be neurotic, impulsive and craving-driven – and to what degree.
The more crypts you have, the more tender you are. The more furrows, the more impulsive. The craziest part of this discovery is that the creation of furrows and crypts happens in the womb – which seems to imply this aspect of our personalities is decided very early on. Biology, then, has given us the power to express who we are through our gaze, and to read the character of others through theirs.
Does
this mean you should ask your new lesbian girlfriend to position
herself under the window in the morning so you can count her furrows and
crypts? Is this going to be a new trend in lesbian online dating?
Will we all have to put a scan of our eyes up on our profiles for all
to see? I sincerely hope not, for there are two important things to
remember. First: the implication here is that furrows are a bad sign,
but don’t forget that impulsive behavior can also mean spontaneity.
Secondly, and more importantly, we are intelligent, self-aware beings
capable of working on our flaws and channeling them towards better uses.
Point being: if you meet a smart, sexy, fun woman with an absurd number of furrows, I’d stick with her anyway.
