No worse than the thigh gap

As usual they choose pretty people (mostly) to illustrate the point.

Seems to have a racial bias.

I have a big protruding nose, so ya' know...

If this kills off duck lips I'm all for it.

The Godfather કહ્યું...

I'm ugly (no surprise), but . . .

I'm not a robot.

buwaya કહ્યું...

It discriminates against receding chins and flat noses.
Makes some sense in selecting for more European features among Asian populations.

Fritz કહ્યું...

Does touching the mustache count?

wildswan કહ્યું...

Goes back to ideas of beauty which came from Greek and Roman statues. They had a nose and chin alignment that that finger method would catch. Also the forehead was supposed to go straight up and down - not overhang or recede. This is what is meant by "regular" as in Tennyson where he describes a heartless, wealthy beauty - "faultily faultless, icily regular, splendidly null."

ken in tx કહ્યું...

I tried it. It's easier to pass the test if you smile. That makes sense to me.

Deb કહ્યું...

I've got a finger for you right here, buddy.
