The earliest looks studies done in 1997, concluded that feminine faced males were more attractive than masculine faced males.<ref>https://www.independent.co.uk/news/pretty-boys-outscore-men-with-a-strong-jaw-1174300.html</ref> However, [[Scientific_Blackpill#Men.27s_facial_masculinity_determines_female_interest_for_friendship_vs._short.2Flong-term_dating|other research]] conducted since has found that hyper-masculinity is more correlated with sexual success in certain mating contexts (short-term relationships). | The earliest looks studies done in 1997, concluded that feminine faced males were more attractive than masculine faced males.<ref>https://www.independent.co.uk/news/pretty-boys-outscore-men-with-a-strong-jaw-1174300.html</ref> However, [[Scientific_Blackpill#Men.27s_facial_masculinity_determines_female_interest_for_friendship_vs._short.2Flong-term_dating|other research]] conducted since has found that hyper-masculinity is more correlated with sexual success in certain mating contexts (short-term relationships).<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Men.27s_facial_masculinity_determines_female_interest_for_friendship_vs._short.2Flong-term_dating</ref> | ||
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 an overlap with femininity. Beauty is attractive in both sexes. Some facial features, such as full lips, are inherently beautiful and attractive to both men and women. Any facial morph where 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. Autists have an extremely hard time distinguishing femininity from beauty due to being bad with faces (Prosopagnosia, face-blindness). | The original looks studies from 1997 were extremely flawed due to the researchers confusing femininity for beauty.
