A man's face might hint whether he is bad to the bone, with scientists finding that wider faces might predict unethical behavior in men.

Wide faces in men have been linked with aggression and perceptions of untrustworthiness. Now researchers have discovered that broad-faced men appear more likely to deceive their counterparts in negotiations and are more willing to cheat in order to increase their financial gain.

Well, did they include blacks in the study? Because that would obviously skew things...

Regardless, I'm greatly impressed they're actually doing studies like this :thumb001:

Generally, there may be *some* truth to it, in that anecdotally I have found Cm-inspired(wide faces) to be more aggresive and socially extroverted. However, I'd suspect only those of lower intelligence would be "immoral".

Wide or more developed malars (orbital bones) are a masculine trait, not wide "faces."

Phenotype and criminality has been theorised like this for a long time.

Well, the old German taxonomists collected a bunch of facial traits together - which they labeled "primitive traits" - and said they were indications of criminal tendencies(among other things). I don't remember if wide faces was one of those traits.

I actually have a wide face, so do both my parents, none of us have a criminal bone in our bodies. Something is probably skewing it - most likely, the inclusion of wide-faced racial minorities. I notice that, on the list of the widest faces, several Maoris are included...

Makes sense, that one element of heredity could be linked with behavior which may also be hereditary.

That was a different thing, that I tried to compare it with.
That was New-Zealands-most-trusted-people
I am not sure about other countries.

Statistically significant tendencies are not the same as a general rule which can be applied to every single variant.

Even if the tendency is there and makes sense, it might be restricted to a specific population with its specific racial and other genetically determined elements, as well as to a specific culture, in which certain people are more likely to act that way.

And of course, there are surely other genetic factors involved, yet this single factor might lead to a recognisable and real, significant tendency - ONE important factor out of others if evaluating indivduals.

I guess this means Norwegians and Danes are more untrustworthy than Swedes on average because of the larger number of Cro-Magnids and other wide faced anthrotypes.:D

Well Cro-Magnons and Cro-Magnon derived types/borealized Cro-Magnons are a majority in all Northern-European countries. Thus by this research, Northern-Europeans should be one of the least trustworthy Europeans, in reality I think it isn't so.

Obviously there must be some kind of error since being "not trustworthy" is not one of my weak points.

Cheater does so because he can't do it directly,
Let me ask you in a hyper-masculine Cromagnid vs Aurignacid fight who must use hit and run more, Aurignacid obviously, if he falls into Cromagnons arms he's done(ground), he can hit him but CM has on avg longer arms too.
Of course robust tall Aurignacids are more flexible and they can show strength too.
But bring in Aestenics, weak very thin leptomorphs that are narrow faced, what can they do? They usually have weak chins. Weak chin = no willpower, in boxing glass chin = falls immediately and can't take damage. And reduced Pyknics too obviously, and they are broad-faced. These 2 will have to use treachery and cheating to prevail (or intellect:D).

So lets go back to negotiating table from the ring, do these Cromagnon faces appear in need of deception. These men can intimidate, why would they need to use complex nets of lies(though using such nets can be positive in other situations" when they can just intimidate Aesthenics and Pyknics into subordination. Strength on the battlefield = strength in face to face daily life situations. Evasion and (ungraceful, dishonorable) hit and run on the battlefield = backstabbing and lies in daily life.

In my lands I need only to see one leading Serb politician from Bosnia and his Cromagnon behavior, he's not afraid to speak up at all.
Female Journalist asks him "what do you think..." he interupts her and says "I don't give a fuck", and later at the end he tells her "You are frustrated, you are missing something..." - you can imagine what he meant.

Here he tells a viewer who called up and criticized him "ah don't shit ...that jerk has courage to call.."

Didn't read any of the articles yet but the first thing that comes to mind is this: do they mean "wide" in absolute metrics or "wide" expressed as a value compared to facial height?

There's a big difference.

Metrically, I have a pretty wide face but I also have a rather long face so when expressed as a ratio, my face isn't that wide.

Well, remember - according to Kretschmer et. al, Athletic body types tend to be direct and honest, but Pynkics tend to be more "clever" and prone to manipulation. Both have wide faces, though. This complicates the study as well.
