We learned that the more average a face is, the more attractive it is. This is because it is easiest to process, and is closest to the faces that we visualize in our mind. Curiously, when the features of the faces were exaggerated, the face was deemed the most attractive, somewhat disproving that the most average is the most attractive.
The Average is More Attractive |
We learned that both men and women typically find feminine facial features in the opposite sex to be more attractive. However, a female will find a more masculine face to be more attractive when seeking offspring.
Masculine Features vs. Feminine Features |
We also learned that the more symmetric the face is, the more attractive it appears to us, for it is the easiest to process. This is also true for objects.
Symmetrical Is Most Attractive |
What Makes A Face Attractive
Both my parents and I found feminine facial features to be more attractive in both male and female faces. Feminine facial features are associated with a more caring and parenting person.
