Yeah exactly, I agree with these tags.
OP is not attacking people with actual blue eyes, here, they just want fictional characters (main characters, protagonists and heroes I presume) to have any other color except blue. Because blue is overutilised in games, comics, cartoons and other medias as the "heroic trait" or "attractive trait" to the point where it gets ridiculous. And even a little boring, since you see the "sapphire" shade of blue the most. We have a full range of hues and I almost never see any other hues than this one, it's dull and uncreative. Look, the misconception that blue is the rarest color is clearly debunked, but pretending like blue eyes are naturally THIS bold is stupid.
Hey OP, while we're at it, can we make it illegal for people to use green eyes as an exotic/rare physical trait for sought-after characters? Kindly asking, it's a little old hat too.
To the one user that kinda went ham about the quality of blue eyes in the reblogs, sincerely, I hope you have a better circle of friends and much needed support. I'm not gonna call you a liar about the anecdote you shared but I am gonna point out that you could have had any other eye-color, be it brown, hazel, green, black, gray, etc. ; you could have had the exact same shade of iris as your "friends" back then, they would have told you the color would be nothing special. Because, as you pointed out, they were terrible people out to bully you for their own self-worth. Point being, it's good that you're able to see the beauty in your own physical traits and a lot of people seem to forget we have very little control on how we look. However, you misunderstood OP's point that they were talking about fictional characters, they're not advocating for people with blue eyes to cease existing. It's just dumb.
Without going the extra-mile of fetishizing brown eyes and singing praise about how they remind me of precious gemstones (just because I'm not a fan of getting extremely lyrical about things like that), I do think they are beautiful and them being reserved mostly for unimportant characters to show how dull they are is criminal.
Also more hazel and gray representation in main characters too, that'd be fantastic.
