Some women once told me they think eyes with more pronounced lashes make men crazy attractive. So I suppose there's nothing really "gay" about it. Some male actors wear mascara (e.g. Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean), making them more attractive to women, I suppose. I'd love to see some science behind this though.

oh totally and I agree that the long lashes are cute! I'm like 99% sure I have built up this correlation/intuition theory in my mind because I tend to only look closely at guy's eyes when I'm flirting/dating with them lol.

Though there was an ML study a while ago about 'gaydar' face recognition - I remember it was ripped apart on HN. From my limited knowledge I don't think there are one or even a few significant gene expressions for homosexuality that we know of so seems probably not true.
