NDetroit, you're oversimplifying your own link; the average of a bunch of attractive faces was a more attractive face, but emphasizing the feminine features of the composite made the face even more attractive.

Betcha the average of a random sample of faces would NOT be nearly as attractive as a sample of attractive faces. And if averageness was the key, that would be the case.

Hey, I just noticed that Discover article has some dirty poetry quoted in it:

Elizabethan poet Edmund Spenser more than 400 years ago pegged the emerging scientific thesis: "Beauty is the bait which with delight allures man to enlarge his kind."

Nice, slipping that one into what's supposed to be a family magazine.
