Why is a larger face height middle-third to lower-third ratio attractive among females?
The face height middle-third to lower-third ratio is crucial in facial aesthetics and attractiveness, comparing the middle third (eyebrows to nose base) to the lower third (nose base to chin) of the face. Lakhiani & Somenek (2019) noted that females typically have a smaller mandibular width and angle flare, a rounder and smaller chin, and more vermilion show, resulting in a larger middle-third to lower-third face-height ratio, enhancing perceived femininity. Atta et al. (2019) conducted a study with 720 Sudanese participants (365 females, 355 males) aged 18 to 60, measuring the face’s upper, middle, and lower thirds. They found the lower third was smaller than the middle third, indicating a higher middle-third to lower-third ratio. Moreover, Rathi and Chhetri observed that the middle facial height was slightly higher in females, while the lower facial height was significantly greater in males. This suggests that females have a proportionally larger middle third and a smaller lower third, leading to a higher middle-third to lower-third face height ratio in females.
