Is it possible for a guy with a weak chin/jawline to be physically attractive?

I don't understand this obsession over jawline, considering that your jaw isn't the end-all be-all for having a masculine face or being attractive. I understand why guys consider jawline as a factor in being attractive, but they act like it's the only sole determining factor in everything. This is false.

Just like men can have a non-prominent jawline and still be masculine or attractive, women can also have prominent jawlines and also be feminine or attractive. Jawline is not very sexually dimorphic at all, and it's a matter of proper development and genetics rather than sex hormones and sexual dimorphism that determine jawline prominence.

In fact, women with more prominent jaws tend to look more feminine because it makes their skull look gracile, especially since they have smaller, less broad craniums than us. The ones with less developed, retruded jaws look more masculine because it makes their cranium look bigger and broader in comparison to their jaws.

No, it is not possible for such a man to be physically attractive.
A weak jaw on a man is a genetic defect.
As a matter of reproductive instinct, women are repulsed by genetic defects.
That defect can be the result of close (incestuous) breeding. To support that, I offer the classical undershot jaw, bug eyes and occasional case of haemophilia in the European royal house of Habsburg, who married their first and second cousins for centuries.
If you look at Britain's Princess Anne and her brother, Charles, they have stereotypical Habsburg faces.

Yes. I’ve noticed most guys with weak chins and jawlines grow out their beards and this can help dramatically and make them look a lot better looking. For example, Scott Disick. Google him with and without a beard- total transformation. Also, charisma and charm means a lot to women. If you have the charisma and charm, you can be attractive no matter how u look. For example, this super famous Bollywood actor sharukh khan has millions of female fan girls yet has a weak jaw and chin and on top of that, a big nose. But his charisma and charm attract so many women and he’s actually even more popular than a lot of conventionally good looking stars. So my advice for guys with weak jaws and chin, grow out a beard and make sure it’s styled properly and see if it improves your looks. But above all, be confident and charming and you’ll have no issue wooing women.

Yup. Plus I heard once that women instinctively tend to see one as sexually more attractive and the other romantically more attractive. What I heard is that strong jaw line men inspire women casual sex but they usually are not seen as trustworthy for serious relationship while soft jaw men are more frequently as someone who could be a father for their kids and for serious relationships. Of course these might have many variables. But I also heard that some women might be more attracted to a jawline or another depending on what time of their menstrual circle they are.

Based on your bizarre poll options: Yes. Ha.

It's possible. Jawline is only one physical characteristic, and everyone has something about them that is not the ideal societal standard of "perfect". It doesn't make them unattractive.

I think so my mom married my dad. Now they use orthodontics at an early age to pull the jaw out. I have a weak chin too.

It's definitely possible. His jawline isn't the only factor that can determine how physically attractive he is.

Just like how a woman with a strong jaw line can be attractive.

A strong jaw and a 90° neck angle is essential for a guy to look physically attractive as it shows he has more testosterone and is fit

I'd say it might be possible. It depends on the rest of what he looks like

Definitely

emilyj64 · Answer

Yes, it's just a less built face, which is not a bad thing

CarpetDenim · Answer

Yeah, just like it’s possible for a girl with a strong chin/jawline to be attractive.

jcjj1991 · Answer

Yup. Tbh, everyone has a different feature that can be attractive. So focus on those if you like. Men in general can do simple workouts with small weights. As dumb as it sounds, it can be worth the smiles you get.
