The original looks studies were officially debunked about 10 years after the original studies were published, the new studies basically state that women are unattracted to males with only feminine traits and no masculine, but are fine with men looking feminine/androgynous as long as said men also have at least some hyper masculine features.<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/44642253_Are_Attractive_Men's_Faces_Masculine_or_Feminine_The_Importance_of_Controlling_Confounds_in_Face_Stimuli</ref> | The original looks studies were officially debunked about 10 years after the original studies were published, the new studies basically state that women are unattracted to males with only feminine traits and no masculine, but are fine with men looking feminine/androgynous as long as said men also have at least some hyper masculine features.<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/44642253_Are_Attractive_Men's_Faces_Masculine_or_Feminine_The_Importance_of_Controlling_Confounds_in_Face_Stimuli</ref> | ||
the original looks studies from 1997 were extremely flawed due to the researchers confusing femininity for [[beauty]]. Beauty is a stand alone trait, | the original looks studies from 1997 were extremely flawed due to the researchers confusing femininity for [[beauty]]. Beauty is a stand alone trait, that has overlap with femininity. Beauty is attractive in both sexes. Some facial features such as full lips are inherently beautiful and are thus attractive on both men and women. Any facial morph were the more "masculine" face has thinner lips, is going to be rated as less attractive. When the feminine/beautiful traits are left alone but the masculine traits exaggerated, the face is more attractive. [[autism|Autists]] have an extremely hard time distinguishing femininity from beauty due to being bad with faces (Prosopagnosia) (face-blindness). | ||
