Babyface Stereotype, fWHR and other biases

Babyface stereotype: Baby-faced people are those who have large, wide set eyes, high eyebrows, a large forehead and cheeks and a small chin.

Study results support the idea that fWHR is a physical marker of dominance. This is the first study to show that male dominance and higher fWHRs are attractive to women for short-term relationships in a controlled and interactive situation that could actually lead to mating and dating.
