    Yeah but… that still doesn’t answer what the actual intention of a pose like that is. Like, for the make-up to showcase the nice lines and flow of it, OK. But for Swatch? It’s dark and you have to squint, like what is that even for?

      Who cares? It’s an ad campaign, and they take lots of photos. They pick out ones that are appealing aesthetically. I have never seen anyone pull up the corners of their eyes like that to imitate or make fun of Chinese people. If that’s what they were going for, they did it wrong.

        Downvoters, please go look in a mirror and make the slanted-eye racist gesture. Do you push your fingers up to make creases or do you pull them straight back?
