Personally, I think the Korean one seems a bit weird, not really what I would imagine. I'm Chinese but I like the Caucasian one the most, maybe because I've lived in America all my life. The Chinese one is decent. | ||

But yea I don't think there is any "golden rule" to how to be optimally beautiful. Maybe it is useful for a plasticsurgeon to get the trendy ratios, but it's totally bound to the fashion/culture of the moment. There are some things that could be said to be objectively attractive, like having symmetrical features and such, but beyond that it's in the eye of the beholder... | ||

I think a better point is that just like with Japanese, Chinese, or Korean compared to just Asain, there are also smaller ethnicities within Caucasian and African which the author seems to ignore. | ||

2006: The Average Korean Attractive Face http://www.springerlink.com/content/1001415w22181672/ Two facial photographs were fused into one at mean values. The composite picture, then, sequentially mixed with other composite pictures to produce a final composite face. 2010: Attractive Composite Faces of Different Races http://www.springerlink.com/content/e175751w73028088/ Although these composite faces are not the standard or most ideal attractive faces, and although many biases occurred during the process of photographic sampling, I regard these as good examples for understanding prior and current configurations, balance, harmony, or the secret of attractive faces of different races. I would love to see a couple of composites mixed from all 5 groups. Since someone asked about preference, I think I prefer the African composite and I'm Caucasian. | ||

But that's how the author seems to have built that image: mixing pictures from Nigeria and Ghana and Kenia and whatever with pictures from Algeria and Morocco and Egypt etc. | ||

It says he combined faces of African celebs, including Rihanna, Yasmin Warsame, etc. | ||
