Larger Eyes and Pupils Increase Facial Attractiveness

Do large eyes and pupils make people more attractive? This study exam gender different preference on the orbits and pupils size to the opposite gender. Sampling from National Taipei University of Education, the total returned questionnaires are 600 and the valid are 566. By a sire of men and women’ photographs which modify orbits and pupils size by Photoshop CS computer software, we found that the following results: Both male and female students prefer larger orbit and pupil photographs, and comparing to female student sample, male student feel larger orbit and pupil women’ photographs more attractive. This means that the benefit for women enlarging orbit and their pupil size (ex., by using eye surgery or cosmetic contact lens) is higher than the benefit for men. In the end we use two theories to discuss the above findings. Firstly, “facial neoteny figure” from evolutionary theory. Secondly, “liking and pupils dilated” from social psychology
