Sloped forehead is masculine and a vertical or smooth forehead is feminine/neotonous.
I think DiCaprio wouldn’t have as much appeal if he didn’t have a sloped forehead:
It’s created by bossing of the glabella and shrinking of the frontal eminences, which are very prominent in newborns.
It’s the opposite of neotony. Babies have very small frontal sinuses and thus no prominent glabella or brow, and their frontal eminences are large, creating the vertical forehead.
As we grow into adulthood, the glabella becomes more bossed due to the frontal sinuses becoming larger (result of testosterone), and the frontal eminences shrink. This is a male dimorphic trait. Females tend to retain the vertical forehead due to smaller frontal sinuses and larger frontal eminences.
Attractive females often retain neotonous features, and the vertical forehead is one of them:

It does depend on the face, particularly the slope of the ramus. Ideally, the slope of the forehead is parallel to the slope of the ramus.
