According to Janet's theory, half of your perceived life is already over at age seven. Of course, that doesn't account for your first few years, which are often impossible to remember. Adjusting for that, then your perceived life is about half over at 18.

At five, a month is almost 2% of your entire life lived up to that point. At 54, you need to experience a full year to “live” that same amount, relative to your much older age. This theory of time perception was first posed by French philosopher Paul Janet in 1897. It’s not a universally accepted theory, but then again—none are. Time perception is still not fully understood by psychologists or neuroscientists, but there is one thing most agree on: The more time you’ve lived, the shorter time feels. Austrian designer Maximilian Kiener used this theory to create a profoundly interesting interactive of life moving literally before your eyes. When you click the link, you’ll be prompted to scroll through a hypothetical lifetime of 100 years (we can dream) and then watch as the years pass quicker and quicker. ”Like many things, this will take some patience to get through,” Kiener writes. “But in the end it will be over faster than you thought or hoped it would be.” According to Janet’s theory, half of your perceived life is already over at age seven. Of course, that doesn’t account for your first few years, which are often impossible to remember. Adjusting for that, then your perceived life is about half over at 18. If a graduating high-schooler feels as though her life is coming to an end, that might be because, to some extent, it is. One popular theory is that your younger years feel longer because young people are experiencing things for the first time. As you get older, though, you form fewer and fewer “new” memories. Another theory suggests an explanation steeped in chemistry: Older people experience time more quickly because of age-related changes in the brain (pdf), perhaps linked to declining levels of dopamine.

According to several university studies, research has shown that men generally find larger eyes on women more attractive. This perceived attractiveness of larger eyes has led to a growing trend (especially in Asia) of women using cosmetics and contact lenses with larger limbal rings in an attempt to create the illusion of larger eyes. Many have even done this permanently through cosmetic surgery. According to the research, the reason for this attraction is that men think that larger eyes (along with fuller lips, bigger breasts and smaller chins) are a sign of higher levels of oestrogen. The men believe that women who have higher levels of oestrogen will be more successful and have an easier time conceiving than women with lower levels, hence make a better mate. The men also think large eyes are a neotenous feature, which is a characteristic of youth shared by babies and children that humans evolved to retain so they could attract quality mates with "protective and nurturing impulses". A mate with protective and nurturing impulses is viewed as being more likely to help raise their offspring and raise reproductive success. People who have large eyes are often perceived to be younger than they really are. Since perceived youth of a mate is also a sign of fertility, men tend to prefer women with neotenous features, like large eyes.
