You really CAN tell how intelligent a man is just by looking at him

Researchers have found we have an inbuilt ability to tell how intelligent a man is just by looking at them.

The team from the Czech Republic found people we unable to perform the same deduction on women.

The team admit they are baffled as to how we do it - and say it does not appear to be based on symmetry of the alignment of features.

Both men and women were able to accurately evaluate the intelligence of men by viewing facial photographs, they discovered.

'Faces that are perceived as highly intelligent are rather prolonged with a broader distance between the eyes, a larger nose, a slight upturn to the corners of the mouth, and a sharper, pointing, less rounded chin.

'By contrast, the perception of lower intelligence is associated with broader, more rounded faces with eyes closer to each other, a shorter nose, declining corners of the mouth, and a rounded and massive chin.

Dunno which one is Paul Allen, but his super yacht "Meduse" just pulled into Kona bay this afternoon.

Can't be too stupid.

Beards and glasses, a high correlation for the men.

Look again. I think it says “Munster.” Although that might be the Greek letter psi. But it’s definitely not an “o”.

Lower Left guy is a dweeb and should be fired before he takes up funding liberal causes....

"Faces that are perceived as highly intelligent are rather prolonged"

There are exceptions to everything, of course...

Very interesting article.

Although as a teacher I was able to fairly well estimate the IQ of a student after a few weeks of school.

“Faces that are perceived as highly intelligent are rather prolonged with a broader distance between the eyes, a larger nose, a slight upturn to the corners of the mouth, and a sharper, pointing, less rounded chin.”

This has nothing to do with being intelligent it is Perceiving one as intelligent. In other words according to this system men like Biden and Obama would be super intelligent and a man Like president Bush would be dumb.
and I find the opposite to be true.

Large Ears are obviously correlated with being dumb (take that Bammy...).

My guess is that the nordic Ø is intended, if not exactly duplicated.
