Which one do you prefer in women: elongated horse-face or rounded pig-face?

[Tigranes]

I'm only attracted to women with Caucasian(Caucasoid) features, therefore I'm going with 'elongated horse-face' option in this comparison.

Elongated, definitely.

There were a total of 46 players in the Swedish women's U23 soccer team (https://www.svenskfotboll.se/landslag/u23-dam/), but I excluded 6 players because I estimated them to have a foreign background. I tried dividing the remaining 40 players in 4 groups based on whether I estimated their face to be more round or more elongated.

Does someone really think that the horse-faced morphs look better? Or do you think that the more leptoprosopic players look more like pure Scandinavians?



I think the morphs with a more elongated face look more foreign and less Northern European:



Here are the photos I used in the morphs:



I also tried making morphs of the 10 players who I thought looked the best and the worst. Compared to the "Worst-looking 10" morph, the "Best-looking 10 morph" clearly has a more round face and more prominent cheekbones. It also has a lower browridge, so that the y-axis position of its glabella and nasion is lower, and so that it has a shorter distance between the eyebrows and the eyes. Its nose is wider and its nasal bridge is lower. Its subnasal segment is longer and its chin is shorter. Its eyes and eyebrows are more slanted inwards. It also has less protruding eyeballs, lower upper eyelid exposure, less prominent lines of the lower eyelids, and a lower level of dark areas around the eyes.

From your morphs Ymyyakhtakh, I like Medium-Elongated the most.

To answer the question posed by thread starter Arsen, in my opinion both can be attractive but if I had to choose then elongated. Personally find Nordic-Mediterranean types to be generally more compelling than Alpine-Baltic.

Spoiler!

As I said though both can be attractive;










Assuming 'assortative mating' is correct then people will probably tend to favor those with an appearance similar to themselves. Would explain why I prefer elongated faces as I'm a horseface myself.

Horsefaces are generally more picturesque, Pigfaces are generally more inviting for me.

Which head is more beautiful, like a soccer ball or a rugby ball?
Extremes are ugly.
