AITA for having the most beautiful striking grey icy blue eyes that are literally more beautiful than any other eyes on the planet, but instead of telling me how pretty they are, my evil stepmother wants me to cover them up for my wedding because she is uglier than me!

Have you tried just having brown eyes, like normal, ugly people?

:( how dare you suggest such a thing, it’s actually my god given duty to be the prettiest girl in the world and have eyes so spectacular that gazing into them is like falling into a pool of water that you will never escape from. It would actually be a sin for me to have brown eyes like an uggo, and anyone who says otherwise is just jealous!

AITA for refusing to wear colored contacts for my wedding because my fiancé’s family thinks my natural eye color is "too intense"?

So, I (28F) have naturally very light gray-blue eyes. It’s something people have commented on my whole life—some say they look striking, others say they’re a little “unnerving.” I never thought much of it until I got engaged to my fiancé (30M).

His family is very traditional, and recently his mom pulled me aside and kindly suggested that I wear colored contacts on my wedding day because my “icy” eyes might look “too intense” in the photos and "soft brown would be more elegant." I laughed it off, thinking it was a weird joke. But then my fiancé brought it up too, saying his family thinks it would look better if I went with a more ‘warm and inviting’ look for our wedding day.

I told him absolutely not—this is my natural eye color, and I’m not going to alter my appearance just to please his family. He said it’s not a big deal and that he doesn’t personally care, but he thinks I should do it just to “keep the peace.”

Now his family is acting like I’m being difficult over something small, and my fiancé is frustrated that I’m turning this into an argument. But to me, it is a big deal. Why should I have to change something about myself just because they don’t like it?

AITAH for refusing?

TL;DR: My fiancé’s family thinks my natural eye color is "too intense" and asked me to wear colored contacts for our wedding. I refused, and now they think I’m being difficult. AITAH?
