study<\/a> published in the British Journal of Psychology, several hundred heterosexual male volunteers were given two composites of a woman\u2019s face – one with more feminine features and one with more masculine characteristics. The men were then asked to choose whether they would be in a long- or short-term relationship with each version of the woman pictured.<\/p>\nThe study concluded that men were apt to choose women with more feminine features \u2013 like a smaller jawbone or fuller cheeks \u2013 for a temporary fling. The study noted that more feminized features in a woman are indicators of health, youth and reproductive success, although their good looks supposedly predisposition some women to cheat. For whatever reason, women with more feminine features correlated strongly among men who were already in steady relationships.<\/p>\n
But when it came to making long-term choices for commitment, men “may actually prefer less attractive\/feminine women,” the study said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When it comes to commitment, men tend to select women with some not-so-delicate features.\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":14552,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[8566],"class_list":["post-14548","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-featured","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"yoast_head":"\n
