When I asked what do you like about you, many of white people I know like their eyes or hair colours. It's because their eyes and hair colours are unique compared to other race. Do they think they were lucky to have unique colors of hair and eyes compared to someone like asian people? Do they feel superior because of that? Do they think dark hair and eyes are boring?

It sounds to me like you have been offended by someone, and you are using that person to judge everyone. That is okay alot of people do that.
When you ask someone a question you are asking for their opinions? I think that alot of people can take information however they want to. For example. I love the color of my skin, my hair, and my eyes. Not because I think I am better, but when I look in the mirror I like what I see. I am happy with the way that I look for me. Do you like the way you look? Are you happy with the way you look? See some questions phrased differently can change the persons answer.
I can only speak for myself, but I have not, nor would I ever feel superior to anyone. Not for any reason would I think that. It is really misunderstood. If you like the way that you look do you think you are superior? I am not trying to offend you. I am trying to get you to see that it may not be what you think. I think that if you spent time trying to find our commonalities, and kept an open mind you would be surprised by the things you would find.
Personally I find people of many ethnicities very attractive, as they are a direct contrast to my looks. They have darker hair, darker eyes, and sometimes darker skin.
I know of the things you speak. I have seen and experienced them (forms of prejudice), and I hope that this can bring more understanding.
I think that if people spent as much time looking for the good in people as they do the negative (in any race of people) we would have a very different world. Don't you?
I like your question, and I hope that I have helped alittle.

I think dark hair and dark eyes are boring. So what? That doesn't mean you aren't unique in a million other ways. I do like having blue eyes also. I think it's cool. My wife and both my kids have blue eyes too. I don't think that makes us superior in any way. I heard somewhere that people with lighter colored eyes are more sensitive to light. I don't know if that's true or not but I do have to wear sunglasses a lot.

Well, some might think so. I don't know, but I don't think that. I think asians have very pretty hair. There's nothing wrong with dark hair and eyes. I am a white woman and I have dark brown hair and brown eyes. I'm happy with it. Anybody who thinks they are superior just because of their hair or eye color has some issues.

Oh, I don't think superior but it is nice to have a variety. I have red hair and green eyes. There aren't many of us around. When I'm at a party, I can look up and I will be the only redhead in the room. I like that!

I like my eyes, and I did like my hair color until it started going gray.
My son has almond-shaped blue eyes. Many times he has been asked if he is part Chinese. He is part Native American.
I see nothing wrong with Asian features.
We are all unique individuals, and wouldn't it be a drag if everyone was exactly the same?

If you asked me that question I'd say that I like my eyes and hair color, but if you dug a bit deeper, you'd find that many white people really don't care. It sounds like you have some sort of hang up regarding your brown eyes and black hair. I married and Asian-American and believe that all races are beautiful.

I'm delighted with my reddish-blond hair, pale skin and blue eyes. I would hate to look like everyone else in my race. Did you know that most people in authority have blue eyes? Almost all the Presidents of the U.S. have had blue eyes--check it out..

Boring if everyone was blonde and blue-eyed etc... or if everyone had dark features, sure, and that's the point, everything being diverse renders it not boring, and... *joke* whoever says that they would like their hair/eyes must not really like anything else. :-p (Which spawned those blonde jokes)
I think everyone has some bodily feature which they like, but personally I would feel feeble to say that I like my own body, it would be rather narcissistic and idiotic, I would prefer to mention external interests. :-)

it fairly relies upon on genetics and your loved ones historical past. in many cases, brown eyes and hair are dominant genes for any race and custom no longer in basic terms one. regardless of the undeniable fact that, whilst it incorporates specific human beings the recessive genes could be exhibit. regardless of the undeniable fact that, characteristics are not unique to any specific race. Their are black those with blue eyes it fairly is merely evaluate uncommon and their are black those with organic purple and blond hair besides, yet no longer the intensity of purple and blond shade recent in white human beings.

Yeah, I guess Europeans are lucky that we have more variation in our features than Asians, Blacks, etc.
