Oddbean new post about login | logout Li et al. (2021) manipulated the faces of participants to be more or less masculine. Men rated their own faces to be more attractive when manipulated to be more masculine. However, women did not rate men’s faces to be more attractive following the masculinization manipulation. Clarkson et al. (2020) similarly found that unedited faces were rated as more attractive than edited faces. This is in line with my Gigachad data which indicates a male preference for men’s masculinized faces that women do not share.
That term gigachad cracks me up every... single... time. 🤣
Interesting, i was watching videos lately on hormonal birth control, which indicate prefer more masculine facws when off it than on it
Yes, but these faces were exaggeratedly masculine.
