How unattractive is cheek fat?

Can't it be a looks killer like jaw ? Should I be trying to get to 10 percent bf?

Should I be trying to get to 10 percent bf?

Yes, everyone should be sub 10%.

I feel like cheek fat makes your face look fat and ugly

Yeah it does, fats only for foids you should be lean to the bone.

Unfortunately some people have chubby cheeks even at sub 12% body fat.
Some of it is genetic and unchangeable with any amount of dieting.

Some people just aren't genetically destined to be good looking.

There is also that chinese bodybuilder who is 3-5% body fat (if he lost any more fat his organs would shut down and he would die of cardiac arrest) and his face is completely boneless and chubby.

Im used to having it since I haven’t been super lean yet I just think it makes me look soft and reduces my jaw. When I’m clean shaven I get no iois compared to stubble (shows jaw)

Yeah I've seen skinny people with chubby cheeks but I feel like being below 10 percent will fix it but normal people don't care but idk if it really makes a big difference but I feel like it does

It’s a case by case basis. Most people look best at 12-15% bodyfat, your face will be lean enough and you won’t feel starved 24/7.

nobody likes fat cheeks tbh

Cheek fat is pretty unattractive for sure.

For some people it is really hard to lose that fat. It's possible with time and dedication but sometimes water retention fucks you up even when you're pretty lean.

intense cardio helps temporarily especially if you sweat.

The less you have the better. I'm fasting rn to get rid of mine

everyone loses fat in their face with age, higher fat looks worse when you're younger and better when you're older because you won't age as rapidly, it's a trade-off.

Don't Snapchat filters make your cheeks way smaller also just shows how important it is

I kinda think it's true but I also think some people just have bad or average cheekbones which makes their face seem fatter.

Someone like Maher or jon k would have to be at above 20 percent bodyfat in order to have a chubby face. I definitely think so
