Well I'm filipino and I have always wondered, what does it feel like for white people to blink? You guys have flipping eyes, so can you feel it flip? Also is your nose always visible when you open your eyes because white noses are usually longer and taller?

Flipping eyes? I don't think eyes are able to flip. Do you mean eyelids? Eyelinds can't flip either.
I would imagine it feels the same for White people to blink as it does for Asian people to blink. I'm not White, I'm Hispanic, but I have "White" eyes. They don't flip, they just close and open. As for the nose, yes, if I look down a bit, there it is.
I have only one eye. When I was little, I still had the right eye but it was blind. For a long time, I couldn't figure this out... if a person has two eyes, why don't they see two of everything? I had one working eye and saw one of everything, but couldn't understand how the two eyes work together to see only one object.
Your question is innocent. :^)

Well we blink just like you guys LOL. I have to kind of push my nose down so it does not block my vision.
You want to hear a funny story. My first husband was a filipino. One night we saw a Chinese movie on tv and the camera was to the side so it was a slanted pic. A week later we saw another one.
I said, "Honey, why are all these Chinese movies from the side like that?"
He said, "Because we have slanted eyes, silly!"
For TWO minutes I believed him!
SO, your question is not that silly as far as I am concerned.
When I was carrying our daughters all he wanted was them to not have flat noses so that, if they needed glasses ever, their glasses would stay on better!
BTW, I am so used to that weeeee little thing I pay no attention to it, my nose. If I close one eye though, it is there for sure.

HAHA that's cute, i'm not sure what you mean by flipping but if it's what i think i'd go see the doctor if my eyes did that, as for my nose i only see it if i'm looking for it otherwise no

What is it like for a filipino to blink their eyes? I have to cross my eyes to see my nose. I have seen some mighty big noses on filipinos.

This made me laugh, but whites do have long noses which some people admire. I don't think you were being offensive, I think you're just curious.
