Re: Spectacles

Dorothy Parker once said:
"Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses."
Is this true?
Do you regard a spectacle-wearer differently?
Contact lenses or spectacles debate?
Does it apply to men and women equally?
Can you see past the specs?

To help - a few examples:

Buddy Holly

Gok Wan

Dame Edna Everage (Barry Humphries)

and Kate Silverton

I wear glasses, but not all the time... I do find blokes in glasses quite sexy though

How hot was David Tennat (as Dr Who) when he would put the glasses on?!

Buddy Holly famously proposed to Maria Elena Santiago on their first date. She always said it was love at first sight, so clearly his spectacles didn't bother her!

Have you noticed in films when they show a view as seen through binoculars it looks like this?

Film-makers have shown it like this for years - decades even.
But in reality, when you look through binoculars, what you see is like this:

Binoculars do not give the effect of 2 circles. They show 1circle.
