Why is a larger philtrum length better for males?

The philtrum length, the distance from the base of the nose to the top of the upper lip, has been studied for its differences between genders and impact on attractiveness. Shin et al. (2014) found that various aspects of the upper lip, including philtrum length, are larger in males than females. Zankl et al. (2002) also observed that males tend to have a longer philtrum. Lakhiana and Somenek (2019) noted that females have shorter, fuller upper lips, implying that males have a longer upper lip and consequently a longer philtrum. Lastly, Nunes and Bran (2021) linked larger philtrum length with higher perioral attractiveness and a more youthful appearance, suggesting that more pronounced philtral contours, common in larger philtrum, are aesthetically desirable.
