The chin-to-midface ratio(SEVERELY underrated)

[mandiblade]

This was modified from @loox's(acct deleted?) old deleted thread.
People talk about the chin-to-philtrum ratio all the time, but this ratio is just as important because it also takes the nose length into account. The ideal chin-to-midface ratio is anywhere from 0.55-0.65. Like most dimorphic ratios, prettyboys should try attaining the minimum while maestheticism-seekers should try attaining the max.

- A good chin-to-midface ratio(with good chin width) makes a person look considerably more dimorphic. It can offset the falio of a long midface.
- A bad chin-to-midface ratio makes a person look weak and childlike.

Having an excessively long/short midface will botch this measurement btw.

Examples of great chin-to-midface ratios:
- Tyler Maher - ratio of 0.6.

- Sean O Pry - ratio of 0.62.

Examples of bad chin-to-midface ratios:
- Adam Driver - ratio of 0.46

Here is a morph where the ratio is 0.575. He still looks much more masculine, even without the ramus height increase(which was needed for harmony).

- Chico - ratio of 0.48

Here is a morph where it's 0.55. Again, he looks noticeably more masculine.

It's a ratio dude. Chin-to-midface means chin:midface, which means chin/midface. Midface is your prosthion-to-nasion distance(google their positions). Your chin is your chin

don't need 5 people to tell you grass is green for you to know that grass is green.

You do need a number of people to repeat a concept for you to establish that it is a common sentiment, however. You did not claim that the post is correct. You claimed that it is common knowledge.

If you need 5 people to tell you grass is green for you to believe it's common knowledge, you're low IQ.

Lol I didn't mean grass specifically. In general, for information to be "common knowledge," multiple people need to repeat it, or it should literally be common knowledge in the sense that you would automatically know just by observing.
I guess the general idea of this post slightly falls into the second category, other than the numbers being provided for this ratio. Still, this post is more about a harmony metric that you use when someone looks "off" than something you would measure every time you rate someone

how to measure mid face?

 

[übermog]

i got 0,5

 

[Liferuiner]

That's for sure a thing

I always knew of this but couldn't point a finger on it

The prime example of this is Ryan Gosling's face

but realistically no one will have a chin that long without it affecting their jaw negatively for example Ryan Gosling has a downward grown jaw

From the side, an overly long chin can be compensated for by getting a longer ramus. And yes, I guess you are right that very long chins are almost always a symptom of downgrowth.
