We generally prefer:
- long penises > choads
 - narrow noses > wide noses
 - tall height > short height
 - forward-grown facial profiles > flat facial profiles
 - skinny > fat
 - long legs > short legs
 - thin electronic devices > thick electronic devices
 - wide aspect ratios > squarish aspect ratios
 - sleek-looking products > clunky-looking products
 - skyscrapers > short buildings
 - etc.
