Do women actually prefer feminine male faces?
Women that think men are 'dangerous' prefer a less manly man
Women who are strictly heterosexual prefer masculinity more than women who aren't
Bisexual women rated masculine faces as less attractive
Women who are less sensitive to 'disgust' more likely to prefer more masculine faces
Women of better health prefer higher levels of masculinity than women with poorer health
More attractive the woman the less tolerant she is of a feminine twink
Women who considered themselves attractive DID NOT find feminine male faces attractive but found masculine faces MORE attractive than feminized male faces
Masculine male face for STRs but more feminine male faces for LTRs
Men with classically masculine features are seen as MORE dominant and LESS faithful
Contrary to popular opinion, a woman's hormonal status doesn't change their preference for facial masculinity
Contrary to popular opinion, oral contraceptives INCREASED preference for masculinity rather than decrease the preference for masculinity

But why the demand for feminine male faces?Most women like a feminized face, but those who rated themselves attractive went for the classic masculine face.
Basic blackpill, going for the ugly beta-male provider to raise children and pay bills while having one-night stands with Chad to satisfy their sexual needs."Those men with a feminine face tend to be associated with stability and caring," he added.
Women that think men are 'dangerous' prefer a less manly man
Women who think men are dangerous prefer less 'manly' partners
Researchers from St Andrew's University found that women who strongly believed that men are dangerous to their children preferred less masculine male faces.

Participants were shown pairs of European (left) and Salvadoran (right) male faces, with the left of each pair feminized and the right masculinized in shape. The results showed that women who thought men were dangerous preferred the feminized faces.
Women who think that men are dangerous to their children prefer less 'manly' male partners, according to a new study. 'We found that men and women who strongly believed that men are dangerous to their children preferred less masculine male faces, although this effect was only significant for women.
Women’s Preferences for Men’s Facial Masculinity: Trade-Off Accounts Revisited - Adaptive Human Behavior and Physiology
Studies on mate preferences have demonstrated that women’s perception of male attractiveness is sensitive to men’s facial masculinity, and that women’s preferences for facial masculinity are subject to individual differences, such as own condition. These individual differences have been linked...

Women who are strictly heterosexual prefer masculinity more than women who aren't
For strictly heterosexual women, attractiveness ratings peaked at a level of +87% masculinity, i.e. clearly above zero. This is in line with findings from previous studies that have reported a general preference for masculinity/masculine traits
The more women were exclusively sexually attracted to men, the more attractive they found highly masculine faces: the turning point of the quadratic function for strictly heterosexual women was at a higher masculinity level than for women who reported the most attraction to women.
Bisexual women rated masculine faces as less attractive
Compared to women who were exclusively attracted to men, women who were also somewhat attracted to women rated masculine faces less attractive and feminine faces more attractive.
Women who are less sensitive to 'disgust' more likely to prefer more masculine faces
Women who had a high sensitivity to disgust — who were repulsed by situations and stimuli that could lead to infection — tended to prefer moderately masculine men but really didn’t like either feminine or very masculine men. However, women who were less sensitive to disgust found moderately and extremely masculine men equally alluring.”
Women of better health prefer higher levels of masculinity than women with poorer health
Our findings tentatively suggest similarities in the effects of self-reported health and self-rated attractiveness (see Fig. 2d). With increasing self-reported health, women’s preferences shifted towards higher levels of masculinity; the peak masculinity preference level was higher for women of better compared to poorer health.
More attractive the woman the less tolerant she is of a feminine twink
More attractive women showed less tolerance to lower levels of masculinity than less attractive women, and their attractiveness ratings increased more steeply with increasing masculinity. Although the interaction with the quadratic masculinity term was not significant, our results also tentatively suggest that more attractive women show a greater range in their ratings of attractiveness (a steeper curve), which might indicate they are more discriminatory than less attractive women when it comes to men’s facial masculinity.
Women who considered themselves attractive DID NOT find feminine male faces attractive but found masculine faces MORE attractive than feminized male faces
Women who considered themselves highly attractive were more willing to take a risk with a highly testosterone-charged male, and were less likely to fear such a man straying.
Women also differed in their preferences according to their own self-rated attractiveness: Women who thought they were high in attractiveness didn’t find feminine male faces very attractive at all, but less attractive women rated them moderately appealing.

However, women generally preferred masculinized over feminized versions of men’s faces, particularly when assessing men’s attractiveness for short-term, rather than long-term, relationships.

This is why you see females dancing with prettyboy tiktokkers during the day but at night they are getting piped down by an extremely masculine Chad.Faces with more masculine features (such as a square jaw, larger nose and smaller eyes), were judged to me more dominant, less faithful, worse parents and as having less warm personalities than those with more feminine features (such as fuller lips, wide eyes and thinner, more curved eyebrows).

Our results do not support the hypothesized link between women’s preferences for facial masculinity and their hormonal status.
No effects involving hormone levels were significant in this analysis (all ts < 0.88, all ps > .38), suggesting that women’s preferences for facial masculinity are not related to their hormonal status.
Contrary to popular opinion, oral contraceptives INCREASED preference for masculinity rather than decrease the preference for masculinity
Although there was a significant effect of oral contraceptive use in this analysis, β = 0.12, SE = 0.04, t(538.264) = 2.75, p = .006, 95% CI = [0.03, 0.20], the effect was such that women using the combined oral contraceptive pill showed stronger masculinity preferences (M = 0.47, SEM = 0.03) than did women not using any form of hormonal contraceptive (M = 0.35, SEM = 0.03). Note that stronger masculinity preferences in women using the combined oral contraceptive pill is the opposite pattern of results to what would be expected if fertility had the hypothesized positive effect on women’s masculinity preferences.
Collectively, our analyses showed no compelling evidence that changes in women’s salivary hormone levels are associated with their facial-masculinity preferences or that the combined oral contraceptive pill decreases women’s masculinity preferences.1 This was despite having a much larger sample size, having tested participants more often, and having used more reliable measures of hormonal status (e.g., measurements of multiple steroid hormones from saliva samples) than previous studies. Thus, the current study presents evidence against the popular and influential hypothesis that changes in women’s facial-masculinity preferences track changes in their hormonal status
