=== Villainous couple === | === Villainous couple === | ||
This villainous couple tends to put the [[Hybristophilia|amygdala region of the brain on high alert.]] They are described, as [[dark triad]], evil, and manipulative. Everyone seems to view the woman to be some type of seductively attractive [[witch]]. This suggests that among women an evil personality may be intrinsically correlated with [[witch|slight facial deformities]] on an otherwise attractive face. Where as on men a large cut at just the right angle over the face seems to improve attractiveness. Indeed a study done in 2008 by a team of researchers at the University of Liverpool proves that women indeed do find battle scarred men as more attractive for short term relationships.<ref>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/11/081118081446.htm</ref> {{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hheod0N-jvw|frame|}} | This villainous couple tends to put the [[Hybristophilia|amygdala region of the brain on high alert.]] They are described, as [[dark triad]], evil, and manipulative.

=== Facial trust === | |||
Someone's facial appearance plays a large role in how trustworthy they are perceived to be. Attractive people, for instance, are seen as warmer and more trustworthy than unattractive people due to the [[halo effect]]. However attractiveness isn't the only facial characteristic people use to make snap judgement of trustworthiness. | |||
For example, it has been found that wider faced men are seen as less trustworthy, and this means people are less willing to co-operate with them.<ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797610362647</ref> This type of bias can sometimes result in dire outcomes for men judged as less trustworthy on the basis of their facial appearance. For instance, Wilson & O'Rule (2015) found that men with less trustworthy appearing faces were more likely to receive hard prison sentences and even the death penalty.<ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797615590992</ref> | |||
DeBruine (2002) found that people also tend to trust those who bear a greater facial resemblance to themselves, possibly due to kin selection based evolutionary mechanisms and perceived relatedness.<ref>https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/abs/10.1098/rspb.2002.2034</ref> | |||
