Is facial analysis a real science?
MIT media lab produced arguably objective standards of beauty about 20 years ago, so it seems like maybe it could be

If everyone’s getting uglier then does it really matter? The standards will just shift to whoever is the least ugly and humans will continue to reproduce

People care about beauty not just because it has some level instrumental value with respect to successful courtship and reproduction, but also because it has some inherent value in itself.

It might be hard for the woke leftist bugman to understand, but not everything in life is about optimizing some narrow range of parameters. Aesthetic value has more relevance to human existence then simply it's function within a reproductive context.

Poor people regardless of race are less attractive, but on average non-whites are inherently uglier (I say this as an anon with a black woman fetish) and also poorer
Poor people reproduce more in every country, but especially more in rich countries which are increasing as the years go on
Poor people don't sleep well and eat fast food

Interesting, makes sense. There is something similar in Neuroscience called the processing fluency theory. The processing fluency theory makes it so that if something is easier to process for our brain, the response will be more positive. (picrel for what I mean). This is true in general, so the easier it is for you to understand a topic, for instance, the more you will like it. Or art, or ads etc. That's why people's tastes cross-culturally seem to be similar in many different things.

Same thing probably happens with faces. Average faces (i.e balanced, symmetric and not outstanding faces) get processed easier, hence are liked more. Ones that stand out more are harder to process, hence less positive response. Even if they stand out in features that are technically "good".

Another thing in neuroaesthetics is the question of complexity. Humans like complexity. We don't like too little complexity, but we don't like too much complexity either. We like it just in the middle. So there is U shaped curve for complexity vs like/dislike. This is for most things as well, such as music, art, architecture, and additionally, probably also faces. So Fluency doesn't mean robotish faces, but faces with some complexity, but still average and 'normal' looking. Too much complexity can be off putting (Think about how a song with too much bg music is off putting, and so is one with too little), and that is true for the face as well. Think about something like a jaw in men. Small jaw bad, Big jaw good, but too big jaw also bad. Middle is the best path for aesthetics.

So when you account for processing fluency and complexity of faces, the most average composite-looking faces should turn out to be the most attractive. This makes sense. Could you link the study btw? I'm interested in reading what MIT exactly came up with.

Humans are becoming less attractive, intelligent, healthy, mentally sound, in control of their impulses and so on.
The cause if this is genetic.
This is due to dysgenic selection pressures.
This will result in civilizational collapse.

Genetics dictates civilizational complexity.
Selection pressures dictates genetics.
Environment dictates selection pressures.
This is why africa cannot into space.

Semites are from the one and only land route between Africa and the rest of the world and since Africans were not a seafaring people, Semites were the only ones who interbred with Africans until 400 years ago when the trade in black slaves spread them around. Thats why Semites have fat lips and curly hair, they got that from breeding with Africans
