Eyelashes are interesting feature of face

[nvr3noug6]

Function of lashes is to protect our eyes from dust, insects, intense light, tear evaporation thus lubricating eyes.

Usually men have denser and longer eyelashes (i think reason is obvious), but its not dimorphic trait, in fact longer and denser eyelashes are considered as feminine trait. Its more of a cultural thing.

Regardless, its gives eyes good framing, better contrast (if lashes are dark) and signals youth and health, so it would be logical for women to exaggerate that feature, and i think thats one of the reason why it developed as "feminine" trait.

What do yall think

I've always wondered why people view them as a female dimorphic trait. I've seen this a lot in children, not so much adults. What I'm going to assume is that in cartoons it's a lot easier to make eyebrows and eyelashes the only sexual dimorphism traits so they don't spend time differentiating the sexes. But that's not the root cause in my opinion, just hyperbolizes it. Maybe it's because of makeup? I'm not sure either
