[@ValerieBerezina]

Considering that a person's face IS literally their whole identity, which is absolutely unique (as opposed to their body, which can have any number of "twins" out there in the world), I'd say this is a very good indicator of a man's level of interest in a woman. If he mostly gushes over her body (which is not as personal and unique as her face is), his interest in the woman is most likely only sexual, in other words superficial. This video touches on that as well ("long-term" vs "short-term" dating). Ladies, pay attention to these subtle signs.

@@zesebi When people are being identified in a morgue, it is usually their face that is shown to their family, not their body (unless their facial features have been destroyed).

Clothing definitely influences attraction. Back when women had to wear lots of layers in the 20th and before centuries, the men were attracted to the face due to only seeing the face first and foremost a majority of the time. Now that those layers have disappeared, the body has taken the forefront in terms of attraction for both men and women, I reckon.

[@shirleyzhang4309]

This is an insightful comment

[@rachelelizabethmason18]

Clothes and current styles have a huge impact on attraction for sure! And yeah when a woman’s whole body was covered in many layers, attraction had to be based entirely on a woman’s face until she got married. But I actually think men from that time, or even just from older generations who are still living, are going to be much more “enticed” (for lack of a better word) by seeing more of a woman’s body exposed than young guys now. A 20-year-old guy can walk on campus and see plenty of mini skirts, crop tops, strapless dresses, etc and get on his phone or go out for at night and see backs out, cleavage, etc. And he would be completely unfazed, unless it’s a woman he’s already attracted to. But a man from a generation where women had to wear dresses that covered their feet, could be enticed by an exposed ankle 😂 It’s all very interesting to me how much what we are used to seeing impacts how sexual a piece of clothing seems to us.

[@rachelelizabethmason18]

I feel like I rambled but I hope I made sense hahahah

[@spate7207]

What about women in the victorian era? Sure they wore many layers but its undeniable their standard of beauty was based around the body. They wore corsets, padded bust and hips, even painted over their waists to make them smaller in photographs, that was their defining feature of attractiveness that you were supposed to notice first because of how stressed and exaggerated it was.

[@christinemarie6976]

Yes, facial attractiveness is way more important, however my friends and I have very, very different ideas of what an attractive face is.

[@MarcustheWu]

Perceived safety also influences how attractive a man is to women. Men's vision of the ideal male is generally uber masculine with super big muscles and almost no softness. However, women generally do not prefer that uber masculine image. Women like a little softness with the masculinity (ie someone whom you would feel comfortable asking to walk you home). That might be why there is little difference between women's preferences for short term and long term coupling. Perceived safety would influence prefences in long term and short term coupling.

Glad to see your comment. That happened to me too. I am above 40 yrs old and it seems that I lost collagen in the face overnight as soon as I turned 40. I always struggled with my weight and somehow right before I turned 40, my willpower, mental focus and habits united for the first time and I lost about 80 pounds. I have since put on about 30 lbs. I looked terrible in the face but I loved my youthful body. It was strong, healthy and it was easier to exercise with it. But my face looked like someone I didn't know and I looked older and less attractive. Now I am 10 lbs more than I want to be but my face has less wrinkles and looks so much better.

Face imo. An attractive face trumps all. Some people will deny, deny, deny any facial plastic surgery because having a naturally beautiful face is valued in most of society.

No pretty face is better. I modeled professionally and can tell you in terms of partners and work beautiful face is everything. I've been super skinny and thicker and gained weight but maintained my beautiful face. People still told me I was gorgeous and looked like a movie star. I still got more dates when I was heavy. Men only commented that they liked a curvy thick chick but my face was everything to them. Having a banging body only enhances my looks and makes me a 10, hence why I lost the weight again. Opposite side I've seen women with banging bodies and average faces and they don't get as many stares, looks or romantic interest. Facial beauty is everything.

Attractive face, by far.

What you're about to read applies universally for men but may or may not apply for women to the same extent as men. One thing that's worth noting is the natural conclusion of "face and body being independent and face being more important in terms of attraction". However, in my own experience and many experiences of other men, your face tends to look as good as your body. For me, I look handsome and get regular compliments for my face when I'm at 12-15% body fat (while being muscular) obviously because at this body fat, my face looks more angular and lean (more sexual dimorphism) and my existing strong features (in my case, my eyes, eyebrows and eyelashes) get a better canvas to showcase themselves. When I was 20% bodyfat I never got compliments for my face. So I happen to be a person whose face can look handsome only if my body looks good. So yeah both aren't independent. In reality getting ripped and muscular will actually make your face look much better as well, that too by a huge margin. Hence in my case, both are equally important.

@@pushingdaisies954 I would ask you what’s your bf % is… because as a white male who’s into fitness for many years (health wise & looks), pearl shape is my favourite body type (also I don’t like other r*ce women if you would think I’m influenced by them or something. No offence, just preference)because sometimes hourglass has too wide shoulders…. The only caveat - if pearl shaped girls don’t workout, they might look like a whale sooner or later (no offence to anyone, it’s just how it goes). So the perfect figure is: If they workout for many years and have lots of muscle mass in buttocks, hamstrings and even some in quads, + have thigh gap, wide hips (perfectly with 0% hip dips but if they are small it’s not as bad) and small waist and great round butt from the profile and front/back. So, if you have a "white guys don’t like your body shape" problem, maybe there’s more to it. I would encourage you…. It might be much worse. If you start working out, you might be a real catch! Think. You could have wide shoulders, wide rib cage, big arms and big shoulders (due to bone structure, fat accumulation there and muscle insertion - meaning biceps, triceps attach high and arms look fat around shoulders) big waist (due to big rib cage), long torso, short legs, narrow hips, small butt, thick thighs that go a little inside (X type). Believe me. I know/see plenty of such women… there’s not much they can do. Even such fitness trainers who are in phenomenal shape, don’t have "curvy or feminine body".

If your a man the body is more arousing while the face is more attracting. When women are aroused or ovulating or looking for sex their preferences would look like men in the study.

Any man who is jacked knows the body is far more sexually attractive to women while the face tends to be relationally attractive. Men who are jacked tend to experience a woman's lust and aggression in a way most men dont.

A woman with a slim face is extremelylikely to have a slim body which is massive determinant in how attractive her body is. This is an even stronger indicator for men. You may say this doesn't change the fact face is more important, which is true. My point is, the takeaway people often have is that body = can change with better lifestyle, face = can't change. The fact is body fat in ideal range massively increases body attractiveness but also significantly increases facial attractiveness, I.e., we can control our attractiveness more than this video might seem to imply

Alexis Ren on the other hand, most men would agree she is stunning, but really her face is average as best. It’s her fairy like body and feminine and seductive way she moves that makes her so stunning. I have never experienced a pretty face pull of an ugly body.
