Summary A smaller bi-gonial width is considered a feminine feature, while a larger one is a masculine one. Two studies, one by Lakhiani and Somenek (2019) and another by Becking et al. (2007), explain the differences between male and female jaw structures, emphasizing bi-gonial width, the distance between the jaw corners. Men’s jaws are typically […]

Summary A smaller ratio of Bi-Gonional-Width to Bi-Zygomatic-Width is considered a feminine feature, while a larger ratio is a masculine one. The research discusses the role of bi-gonial width (jaw width) and bi-zygomatic width (cheekbone width) in defining gender-specific facial features, focusing on the differences between male and female facial structures. A slender lower face, […]
Summary A larger ratio of Middle-Third to Lower-Third for Face-Height is considered a feminine feature, while a smaller ratio is a masculine one. A study suggested that the growth rates of different parts of the face vary as children develop into adults, with distinct patterns observed in boys and girls. Women’s faces are often associated […]
Summary A smaller Nose-Width is looked at as a feminine feature, while a wider one is a masculine one. Koehler et al.’s (2004) study suggests that a smaller nose width is considered a feminine trait due to the influence of sex hormones on facial development. Testosterone, typically higher in males, promotes the growth of the lower […]
Summary A larger ratio of Bi-Zygomatic-Width to Face-Height is considered a feminine feature, while a smaller ratio is a masculine one. Weston et al.’s (2007) study indicates that as children mature into adults, their facial structure changes; faces become longer and narrower, but these alterations vary between genders, especially post puberty. Boys develop wider faces, […]
Summary A smaller ratio of upper-lip to lower-lip is considered a feminine feature, while a larger ratio is a masculine one. Research across various studies reveals interesting differences between male and female lip structure and their perceptions. Kar et al. (2018) found that women’s upper lip area is dominated by the fuller, colored part, making […]
Summary A shorter Philtrum is looked at as a feminine feature, while a longer Philtrum is a masculine one. The philtrum is the groove that runs from the bottom of your nose to your upper lip, and the Cupid’s bow is the ‘M’-shaped curve of your upper lip. Research indicates that these features vary between […]
Summary A larger ratio of philtrum length to mouth length is considered a masculine feature, while a smaller ratio is a feminine one. Two studies have revealed distinct facial differences between males and females, especially concerning the philtrum (the groove between the nose and upper lip) and mouth. The first study by Shin et al. […]
Summary Skomina et al. (2020) found that men typically have wider mouths and bigger noses than women. This results in different mouth-width to nose-width ratios between the genders. Women generally have a smaller ratio, indicating narrower mouths in proportion to their noses, making it a feminine feature. This observation is supported by the changes seen […]
Summary Facial aesthetics offer valuable insights into the portrayal of gender through physical attributes, with eyebrow thickness being a prominent feature in this context. Studies (Mogilski-2018) have shown that eyebrow prominence is typically larger in men, associated with a masculine face shape and inversely related to a feminine face shape. Men often have heavier, straighter […]
