Yes, the custom began 3000 or 4000 years ago in the middle-east when showers weren't widely available .
Today's sanitary habits of the West, the custom is not a medical necessity.
But mutilating a little girl makes no sense at all other than assuming complete dominance over her life.

waiting for Ippolito
Now there is ONE of the answer given by... whoever. Let's wait and see what else Ippolito has to say :
The face and body of the Mongols result from adaptations to the bitter cold of Siberia. The body, and particularly the head, tends to be round, increasing body volume. The evaporative surface area of the skin is thus reduced relative to body volume, and less heat is lost. The nose is small and less likely to freeze, and the nostrils are narrow, warming the air before it reaches the lungs. Eyes are protected from the cold Siberian air by fatty folds of skin. Racial differences also result from the particular tastes of individuals via sexual selection.
Of course, it does'nt mean this one is the right one LOL LOL LOL (I'm mischievous, you know)

An answer given by Cecil Adams (quoted)
The question, is what the function is of the "epicanthic fold," the extra flap of skin that gives orientals a sort of double upper eyelid. Anthropologists aren't sure, but their best guess is that it's an adaptation that protects against cold and glare. The theory is that the people who eventually became the Mongoloid race were trapped in Siberia by the glaciers during the last ice age, from 50,000 to 25,000 years ago. During that time, when life was truly survival of the fittest and evolution was rapid, the proto-Mongoloids developed a number of physical traits that helped them cope with the bitter weather. For one thing, their noses became flattened, which minimizes exposure to the elements and thus reduces the risk of frostbite. The nostrils got narrower, enabling inhaled air to be warmed up more efficiently and preventing cold air from reaching the lungs. Their faces gradually became round and flat and lined with fat, which acts as an insulator. The eyelids picked up a layer of fat as well, and I suppose without an epicanthic fold they might be a bit difficult to open and close.
Then again, maybe the whole thing was just an accident. Life is like that sometimes.
Well, you see, it's all a matter of interpratation, but it all comes down to the same thing : Nature will make you adapt, very quickly in any situation...
Now you will read some other places that a large community of black african bushmans (called... the yellow bushmans...!!!) have exactly the same type of eyes features and the never went to Siberia or Mongolia. (Well, who knows....LOL). And then you have some european (rare) with same features and they do not have any asian ancestors. So what ?
And you'll notice that some south americans populations such as Incas and Mayas have also this feature. But them, we know for sure, came from Asia, long before we were born, and were ancestors to the american indians (Sitting Bull & all the others). So what ?
One thing I say : Stay close to utter wonder at what Mother Nature can offer us. Open your eyes wide, no matter they are asian or european eyes, funnily enough, we are bound to see the same thing.

Yes is the same text I have read in the scientific magazine.....
one strange thing in one of my travels i have spent 2 weeks in Nossy be
a nice little island near the main Madagascar.....there I saw many africans with
oriental eyes is the only place in Africa with this particular ethnic caratteristic.
One question.....can you dinstinguish a korean from a japanese?

Well "Ascate" your english is superb......for a japanese.....
Yes all say that China will grow in the next 10 years a lot...
It is too difficolt for me to learn chinese now....i speak english and spanish
some jp words and korean
I should begin a course in italian in June as to get a diploma to teach italian
itariago to foreigners...I already have a school in partnership ready to start in Sep.
and many contacts with jp an kr comunity as to have some sutdents...
but it is hard for me as 1 month full immersion course and i am not young...anymore
back to school...again ....
Actually I teach air tariff to a pubblic tourism school but never teached to a multietnic group-
Also for me is difficolt to distinguish a german from and english or irish
if they do not say a word....also can make some problems people from Sweden
Danimark or Finland......even can make confusion to identify
Romanian bulgarian albanese polish etc....
Did you study antrophology?
the island is Nossy be is a turistic place in north west of Madagascar the biggest island in Africa.
Also you "Ascate" have a nice day i see Venezia in tv I have been there twice
for some days...but have you been in Rome? As you came in Italy
I will say hello to Venezia.
In that article about eyes is the same explantions more about he nose
as we have a bigger nose generally...is beacuse the great cold in siberia
the caucasian 25000 years ago moving to far east via Siberia they
created natural defences for such cold and windy places
ciao

What ?
Hi sweet Lina Inverse,
Yes it is damn interesting because I wanted it to be like that, and I made it to happend.
I dont really understand why you say that. You seem to be an intelligent, open-minded and YOUNG person, no ? And don't tell me you do not have a passion in your life (apart corn flakes... LOL, it's joke...). I'm sure you have some important interests. So what is stopping you ? If you only "wish" you could do something, it will not work. But if you "WANT" to do something, then it'll be all right, right to the top. Don't look at others, just look at you and be proud of who you are because you are worth it, probably a lot more than you think.
love
Mi-ja

In Japanese schools, kids are never addressed by the teacher by their first names. Kids are always called by their last names. Boys get the suffix "-kun" and girls "-san". The kids themselves call each other by their last names and barely even know what the other kids' first names are. Kids who are bullies call others without the -kun suffix.
When attendance is taken in class, boys' names are read out first, then girls'.
However, when kids in the same neighborhood play with each other (who do not go to school together) might call each other by their first names and add the suffix "-chan".
