That makes sense; that must be the reason why the girls in the pictures look "above-average" in appearance, due to the morphology of sexually attractive features into a standard mean.

Are the females randomly being sampled, and are "ugly" women considered into the samples?? Because all a scientist would need to do, is, cherry-pick women from the particular population at the start. Or is this not 'scientific' but just focused on morphology (computer) software?
it's possible that the author cherry picked only good looking samples to make his morph. i don't actually know the source of this image.


however, there is poster, Herauscorritse, who does these morphs (for now, they're mostly european). He looks for faces of people with surnames endogenous to a particular region and does morphs of them, and he seems to be fairly unbiased in regards to the attractiveness of the faces in his sample (indeed, some of them are quite unattractive). but the results always seem to look more or less quite attractive.
