The fWHR king is back with new and old information on how this little known facial metric predicts everything from how sexy you are to how financially successful you'll be.
fWHR is based on the amount of pubertal testosterone you have. Testosterone is the hormone that's responsible for such things as extroversion, status striving, mating ability, dominance, etc.
fWHR is the one physical metric that is directly correlated with testosterone levels. fWHR is more correlated with Testosterone than muscles, height, masculinity, and any other physical measure. fWHR literally = testosterone.
fWHR was only discovered in the last few years but in that short amount of time we've found that fWHR is correlated with such things as dominance, aggression, short term attraction, fighting ability, financial success, trustworthiness, status, etc.
Men with high fwhr are better fighters when all other factors such as bodyweight and training are taken out of the equation:

FWHR is directly correlated with financial success:

FWHR, not masculinity, is correlated with dominance and aggression:

Researchers have theorized that innate personal traits are related to leadership success. Although links between psychological characteristics and leadership success have been well established, research has yet to identify any objective physical traits of leaders that predict organizational performance. In the research reported here, we identified leaders' facial structure as a specific physical trait that correlates with organizational performance.
Specifically, we found that firms whose male CEOs have wider faces (relative to facial height) achieve superior financial performance. Decision-making dynamics within a firm's leadership team moderate this effect, such that the relationship between a given CEO's facial measurements and his firm's financial performance is stronger in firms with cognitively simple leadership teams.

[font=Lato, 'Myriad Pro'][size=small][font=Lato, 'Myriad Pro']Recently, associations between facial structure and aggressive behaviour have been reported. Specifically, the facial width-to-height ratio (fWHR) is thought to link to aggression, although it is unclear whether this association is related to a specific dimension of aggression, or to a more generalized concept of dominance behaviour. Similarly, an association has been proposed between facial masculinity and dominant and aggressive behaviour, but, to date, this has not been formally tested. Because masculinity and fWHR are negatively correlated, it is unlikely that both signal similar behaviours. Here, we thus tested these associations and show that: (i) fWHR is related to both self-reported dominance and aggression; (ii) physical aggression, verbal aggression and anger, but not hostility are associated with fWHR; (iii) there is no evidence for a sex difference in associations between fWHR and aggression; and (iv) the facial masculinity index does not predict dominance or aggression. Taken together, these results indicate that fWHR, but not a measure of facial masculinity, cues dominance and specific types of aggression in both sexes.[/font][/font][/size]
