Infants and children are also apparently drawn to symmetrical faces. I think you see more symmetry in "exotic" faces than you do in the Ango-Saxon variety. I had never thought too much about my innate ability to attract infants and toddlers. They always stare at me for a bit and then innevitably they smile or otherwise try their baby 'flirting'. A fussy baby almost always settles down when I talk to it. I always thought I was just some natural-born baby whisperer. My son the artist mentioned in passing the other day that I have a very symmetrical face. That would be one explanation for my baby magic, I suppose.
Sucks to be you. Me, I also *HAD* a very symmetrical face, but it has since sustained a great deal of battle damage. However, after I was about 12, babies never reacted positively to me. If I so much as looked at it, it would scream, and if I glared at it, it would soil itself. Except my cousins. They'd react with excitement and try to pull my nose, bite my ankles, and then try to rip my leg off unless I clubbed them with something repeatedly, which, while successful in repelling them from my person, generally caused them to switch to bombardment with thrown objects. I'm told I was the same way. It seems to be a family thing.

In any case, now I produce the same effect on children. They are first drawn closer for some bizarre reason, and when they get close enough to be irritating and I glare at them, they scream, soil themselves, and flee in terror.

I always find babies and toddlers are fascinated by people who wear glasses!

Then there's the project where they amalgamated poll results to produce what was supposedly the "ideal" face.

I saw that one.  My impression was that her eyes were too wide-set, her face was vertically squished, and her chin was too small.

So, who would you think of as extremely attractive women among celebrities we might know about?  (Personalities and abilities don't count here, just appearance.)

Off hand, I'd say, at their peak of youth and beauty: Maureen O'Sullivan, Grace Kelly, Catherine Deneuve, and Rose McGowan rank right up there.

I think Aristotle was the first one who made the definition that *symmetry*  is the sign of beauty and order, and *assymetry*  is the sign of disorder and uglyness...:).

...Now check yoursef who are you...:).

Nobody, really. I don't know of many celebrities, and the ones people show to me don't really attract me. I'm known for consistently handing out ratings no higher than "Meh". As a result, I'm occasionally accused of being gay. They all look too plasticky for my tastes.
