- Wider than average nose compared to your phenotype generally indicates better androgen levels.
- Wide nose, like a protrusive brow, is an adaptation to help increase your inspiratory capacity.
- Indicates a wider maxilla, so better zygos, wider IPD, lips, palate, etc.

The issue only arises when there's a disharmony between any of the aforemnetioned features, so a nose that is too wide compared to the rest of your face essentially.
There's a reason why wide noses are a death sentence for women but aren't a failo for men

Example of good maxillary width:
Meeks


Too much maxillary width:

is this really too much maxillary width, or just eyes not wide enough?
Always cage at Haaland's looks, looks like an Albino whilst being fully Norwegian

True, its all about proportion that doesn't stray too much from the average range, men do have bigger noses and different angle on average because of dimorphism.

wider nose isnt a problem , usually its wide alar width and lot of nose tissue that makes it droopy which is the problem

I'd say the biggest problem with most wide noses is that the mouth isn't wide enough/too narrow in relation to it. Mouth-nose ratio is extremely important imo, a narrow mouth (speaking in proportions to the rest of your face) rarely looks decent.

How did his dental arches get that wide? Mewing since birth? MSE? Genes?
idk scandinavians tend to have better craniofacial development on average

if you look at finns, often they look like barrett but worse, legit alien-tier bones, like this guy


I've been to Finland so I can say with certainty that people with bones like this are disproportionately common there

the pic I posted is of Erling Haaland, a Norwegian player

Stop talking in absolutes.

Everyone on this forum thinks aesthetics / individual features are black or white. It's not, it's purely contextual.

Sometimes a narrow nose looks better, sometimes it doesn't.

True but whats the reason for it though tbh? I would guess it has to do with their diet or different climate
 
Too narrow is less of a failo than too wide
