What makes a person beautiful has fascinated artists and scientists for centuries. Beauty is not, as it is often assumed to be, “in the eye of the beholder” – but follows certain predictable rules. Symmetry and proportions play a role, and though culture and norms shape our perception of beauty, researchers observe a consistently striking agreement among people on whom they regard as beautiful. Not surprisingly the beauty market has been on a steady rise (besides a minor 2020 Covid slump), reaching $430 billion in revenue in 2023, according to a recent McKinsey report. The fascination for the ...

New research, published in the journal Evolutionary Psychology, provides evidence that biracial people are viewed more positively than their monoracial counterparts, potentially due to the historical and genetic implications of their ancestry. This study conducted in both the United States and China found that biracial individuals were perceived as more attractive, trustworthy, intelligent, and likely to be successful than others, challenging existing notions of racial bias and favoritism. The motivation behind this study stems from a growing interest in interracial relationships and their soc...

In a world that often emphasizes superficial qualities, a recent study has unveiled a refreshing perspective on human relationships and preferences. Researchers have found that, regardless of sexual orientation, individuals prioritize intelligence and kindness over physical attractiveness, health, or socioeconomic status when choosing a partner. This study, conducted in Brazil and published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, not only sheds light on the universal nature of these preferences but also highlights the subtle nuances that sexual orientation and gender bring to the dynamics of partn...

A recent study published in Evolutionary Psychology found that immunization led to an increase in perceived body odor attractiveness and a decrease in facial attractiveness. Social species, including humans, have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to detect and avoid contagious others, effectively mitigating the spread of infectious diseases within their communities. This ability to discern others’ health status is critical due to the inherent risks posed by high population densities and frequent social interactions. Researchers have identified various perceptual cues—ranging from visual signals...
