I never considered the eyes "squinty" ~ they're just normal ~ but there's some extra eyelids you can bring down to keep your eyes from freezing ~ plus, you can blink "up" with the lower part under the eye.

Now that's an advantage and a half.

Fur Shur the Sa'ami all have eyes that can be hidden deep within the warmer recesses of the skull.

I have a brother who looks like Richard Gere and I always thought Richard had a ‘squinty eyed’ thing going on. My brother’s was even more squinty than Richard’s and his two very blonde boys are even more so. We all have a signature, bright blue eyes...almost to bright

Interesting. I was not judging the eyes but it is about the only way the lay person can tell. If you know the family came from somewhere in Scandinavia it might be a tip. I wonder if the facial structure is slightly different. I think all those women have higher cheekbones as well.

Obviously a genetic adaptation due to the cold in the Lapp region. I wonder why people stayed that far north and if the Ice Age made any difference.
