| My eyes are brown and boring, DH has blue eyes. Is it wrong to want a child with blue eyes? |

| Brown eyes are awesome. Soulful. Deep. |

| Also they’re not as functional. |

| You posted this yesterday and thankfully it was deleted. Are you really so obsessed with eye color? Brown eyes are gorgeous don’t be shallow. |

| My next door neighbor's daughter has the most beautiful brown eyes I've ever seen. Much better than my own blue eyes. |

| Yeah it’s kinda wrong. I have a kid with brown and a kid with blue and the brown are just as handsome. |

It's shallow.
I get it, we all want our kids to be beautiful (and smart, and etc. etc.). And I admit blue eyes are awesome. As long as you accept them for however they come, it's fine. And keep your shallow thoughts to yourself. |

It's really shallow.
Also, the odds are against you, unless you have a blue-eyed parent or grandparent. Recessive genes and all. |

I have brown and married a guy with blue. All 3 of our kids have blue eyes. It does help that 7/8 of our grandparents have blue eyes, so clearly I had the gene on my side too.
I think the thing about wanting blue eyes being bad is because it sounds Nazi like. I can see why, but think it's somewhat unfounded. I also wanted my kids to have curly hair and they did. We often want a lot of things for our kids before they're born. Blue eyes used to be super common in America (I think I read 70%?). |

Not true. Blue eyes can see better in the dark. Brown can see better in the sunlight. I have seen this in real life too |

Is this true?! Fascinating if so. |

Why is it unfounded if you even admit that it sounds Nazi like? This kind of preference is absolutely disgusting and racist, and we’ve obviously seen where it can end up if you take it too far. |

| You can want whatever. A blue eyed shirley temple blonde, but you best make a backup plan when you end up with a brown eye little boy. |
