In various [[lookism]] and [[blackpill]] forums, '''hunter eyes''' are considered to be the ideal eyes for men. They are alluring eyes, vertically narrow, [[Deep-set eyes|deeply set]], hooded, with a positive [[canthal tilt]] and an interpupil distance (IPD) within the normal range. The hoodedness of these kinds of eyes comes from a combination of a protruding [[brow ridge]], fat tissue above the eyes, and solid 'under-eye' support caused by robust cheekbones and square orbital sockets.

In technical terms, all humans have 'hunter eyes', i.e. forward-facing eyes that allow them to focus on and pursue prey, like what is found among other predatory animals. Hunter eyes can be considered the opposite to 'prey eyes', that is, eyes that are located on the skull's side that aids prey animals in spotting potential threats in their peripheral vision.

Hunter eyes are likely a [[sexual dimorphism|sexually dimorphic]] trait,<ref>https://www.futurelearn.com/info/courses/forensic-facial-reconstruction/0/steps/25656</ref> with men (especially Caucasians) having wider eyes that are proportionately narrower vertically owing to their more rectangular eye fissures.<ref>https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00265-020-02894-1</ref>
These traits (vertically narrow eyes with a low level of verticle scleral show) are considered essential aspects of 'hunter eyes'.<ref>https://lookism.net/threads/whats-great-about-orbs-eye-area-in-lookism-terms.68363/</ref>


Hunter eyes are a [[sexual dimorphism|sexually dimorphic]] trait, with men's eyes having more horizontally exposed sclera (white of the eye) and wider (more rectangular) eye fissures.<ref>https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00265-020-02894-1</ref><ref>https://www.futurelearn.com/info/courses/forensic-facial-reconstruction/0/steps/25656</ref>
Women's eyes tend to be more round and cute, closer to 'prey eyes'; however, women have a smaller interpupillary distance than men, rather than their eyes being peripherally positioned like in prey animals.<ref>https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8115125/</ref>

Scientifically, it is an open question to which extent hunter eyes are directly attractive to women. Research on [[facial masculinity]] suggests that the role of most facially masculine features are generally overstated as an aspect of facial attractiveness for men, as most of these features do not play much of a role in driving female's evaluations of the attractiveness of male faces.<ref>https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0225549#pone.0225549.ref040</ref> These features possibly play even less of a role in driving actual mating outcomes for men.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Across_91_studies.2C_bodily_masculinity_was_predictive_of_men.27s_mating_and_reproductive_success</ref>
Scientifically, it is an open question to which extent hunter eyes are directly attractive to women. Research on [[facial masculinity]] suggests, that on average, women higher facial masculinity does not affect women's attractiveness ratings. Nonetheless, male models often appear to have pronounced hunter eyes. Men with hunter eyes look highly dominant and threatening, with a piercing, predatory gaze. Their eyes impart a distinctive look on those that bear them, suggesting they are generally considered to be alluring.

Deep-set hunter eyes may be an evolutionary adaptation for [[Scientific Blackpill (Supplemental)#Almost_all_men_are_stronger_than_almost_all_women|combat, hunting]] and male [[intrasexual competition]], protecting men's eyes from fists, claws, sticks etc. and/or may serve to merely intimidate other males.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1090513810000279</ref>

2 studies show that darker and larger limbal rings around the eyes are more attractive. The study showed women actually, have a revulsion toward faces that lack limbal rings!
