What's the ideal midface length?

[trapmoneybenny]

I see so much contradicting in midface length such as compact is good because it's dominant and long is bad, and long is good because its masc and high class whilst compact is babyish and bad, which one is it? What is the ideal midface ratio?

The same length as your IPD.

 

[CosmicMaxxer]

slightly above average length midface with wide IPD.

The same length as your IPD.

ah so you think 1:1 is ideal well me too!
can you show some examples of 1:1?

[CosmicMaxxer]

prob like 1.05 with aristocratic midface and wide-set eyes. Like these two.

1:1 is most attractive and dominant, but slightly higher does make you look smarter and higher class hence the contradicting opinions

What do you mean?

I gave you examples of a long midface, and ideal midface, and a very compact midface.

When your MFR is too long, you either have narrow IPD or long nose length.

If it's too compact, you likely have wide IPD and short midface length.

The ideal is to have both your IPD & Midface Length be the same.

Easier said than done . This would surely be the goal.

Maybe, I guess smart people tend to be uglier hence the "High Class" sterotype that a long midface has with it.

The face shape associated with a higher perception of intelligence also shows the characteristics of higher perception of attractiveness, while the face shape associated with a lower perception of intelligence shows traits of higher perceived dominance. The positive correlation with attractiveness and trustworthiness and negative correlation with dominance may explain the attribution of higher intelligence to longer, narrower faces.

Perceived Intelligence Is Associated with Measured Intelligence in Men but Not Women

Background The ability to accurately assess the intelligence of other persons finds its place in everyday social interaction and should have important evolutionary consequences. Methodology/Principal Findings We used static facial photographs of 40 men and 40 women to test the relationship...
