Guide 7 scientifically proven attractiveness factors most guys dont know about (1 Viewer)

[TheEl1tesWillGoD0wn]

1. Women often prefer average faces over perfect faces

A classic finding in attractiveness research is averageness bias

Researchers created composite faces by averaging many faces together those averaged faces were rated more attractive than most individual faces

Because they signal genetic diversity and health
So trying to look extreme and sharp isn’t always optimal balanced proportions matter more

2. The “slight imperfection affect”

Studies have shown that faces that are too perfect can feel unnatural

Small asymmetries and some flaws can make appear:
• more human

• more thrustworthy

Perfect symmetry sometimes looks artificial
(Similar to the uncanny valley effect)

3. Voice attractiveness changes how your face is rated

Research shows when women hear an attractive male voice they rate the same face as more attractive

Since i found a study from University College London that suggest voice pitch and resonance influence perceived facial attractiveness

Traits women prefer:

• slightly lower pitch

• resonant tone

4. women rate men more attractive when they are surrounded by other women

They call this mate choice copying

Research shows women often rate a man more attractive if he is seen interacting positively with other women

A famous study by Benedict Jones
Demonstrated this effect

5. Women prefer slight facial stubble

A well known study by Barnaby J. Dixon
Found that heavy stubble was rated most attractive for men

Clean shaven faces were usually rated:

• more thrustworthy

• but less sexually attractive

6. “The cheerleader effect”

People appear more attractive in groups

This phenomenon was demonstrated by Drew Walker and Edward Vul

This happens because:

• your brain averages the faces in the groups

• this smooths imperfections

7. Eye contrast matters more than eye color

Many guys think eye color matters a lot

But studies show contrast around the eyes is more important:

• darker lashes

• defined eyelids

• clearer sclera (white of eyes)

This increases perceived attractiveness and health

More thrustworthy

 

[Mikey]

Water (for me atleast), but cool thread, im sure atleast someone found this helpful, but 4 “women rate men more attractive when surrounded by other women” really just depends on the woman, i think most girls would call them a “manwhore”, like u look at clavicular for example and say “wow every girl knows hes with multiple of them at the same time but they dont care” and thats cuz all/most the girls hes with are sluts

Those are usually comments given by negative foids anyway so dont worry about them
In general being surrounded by other women and interacting is good

How should i fix it

[carbon]

How should i fix it

using bold texts to highlight new sections/important headings, more spacing, text sizes, color, or perhaps media for eye candy. but for straight-forwardness this is very cluttered and the first three would suffice in an easily readable thread
