Why do women prefer feminine men?
Throughout the history men with distinctive face features were more popular – a pointed chin, lowered eyebrows and thin lips. These were the signs of superior genes which assured a strong and healthy offspring. But the choice also brought some disadvantages – if a man was more masculine there was a higher possibility that he would not help to raise the offspring. The scientists believe that fast development of health care in wealthy Western countries enabled women to stop worrying about healthy offspring and that’s the reason women nowadays prefer more feminine men.
