reason 1: it makes their cheekbones appear more definded and lips fuller. of course, that comes at the cost of looking like a complete idiot..
reason 2: they think that it makes it gives the impression that theyre fun, messing around, and don't care about how they look, as in are more chill. really, its the opposite, as in theyre more uptight and concerned about how they look. for ex 'oh she's not trying to be sexy, she's just having fun and making 'random' weird faces but somehow still looks really hot'.
reason 3: they see other girls do it. long live our fellow females' inabilities to not be act like idiots just to be like everyone else *clap*
reason 4: theyre f-ing retards.
I hate it. I have no idea why people do it, I guess they think they are being attractive and alluring? Not many of my friends do it, but I know lots of teens in high school do. I saw this one chick's pics and she was doing it in EVERY picture. It was not attractive. Her pictures would be better if she just smiled like normal.
When my boyfriend and I started dating he told me specifically, as long as you don't do what's in this video, we will be fine!
Reason as to why: Little aminals are adorable. Ducks are little aminals. Therefore, ducks are adorable. Adorable and attractive are synonyms to an extent. Interchange adorable for attractive, and you get 'ducks are attractive'. Imitating a duck, then, presumably makes you attractive. :D
I hate it when girls do that. -__- Or when they always have their lips parted - in EVERY - SINGLE - PICTURE!
As if their face is like that?!
Seriously, this one girl I saw online, has a whole set of pictures where her lips are parted. People ask her about it and SHE ACTUALLY SAID "SHE TRAINED HER LIPS TO BE LIKE THAT!"
Which is bullsh*t, because on a couple of her pictures where she seems relaxed or slightly grinning, her face looks f***ing normal.
It's funny, because not only does it look stupid, but instead of cutting it out, they try pretending they're not doing any sort of pose.
So their cheekbones look more defined. It works, but they still look stupid.

Same boring reason: young naive girls fresh on the market (or who want to be) who want to experiment with broadcasting their sexual potential by beckoning indiscriminately with their lips to anyone unfortunate enough to look in their direction. Like the swollen ass a female chimpanzee gets when she's in heat, the duck face lips can either mean "you can kiss my lips" or "you can kiss my ass", but the attention whores who make these faces really seem to be hoping for both.
They think they are "pouting" which makes girls look adorable and that makes them sexy. However, they tend do the pout wrong.
It is very stupid. My cousin's daughter is on facebook all the time doing that. She is in her 20s and married and doing it. I had to stop following her I got so sick of seeing her do that.
Because they think its attractive when really it looks quite silly and ridiculous.
The same reason boys scowl or flip off the camera in every picture ... They're self conscious so they do something that looks like they aren't really trying to look serious ...
Because it makes your lips look plumper, it draws your cheeks in showing off the cheek bones and making you look slimmer. Plus it's the whole Marilyn Monroe/model thing of "kiss me".
Because they think they look hot when they do..
But only some people realise that it's not exactly actractive to see.
But it's their choice...
we can't do anything
I never take those kind of photos.It looks silly to me.I think they try to look cute or attractive.Btw this question make me laugh.
The duck face is so 2012 and before, girls rarely do it nowadays.
Girls were/are doing it because it's a habit, I guess. I know the question is old , it's useless of me to answer it now, but... I want to ¯\_(ć)_/¯
Why does it say 4 year question? And it's just featured? And it's open?
Is GAG fucking with me again? 😂😂
I agree I think it looks extremely stupid. It only works if the girl is cute and is not doing it in a fake self absorbed way.
It's fun I don't know why people have such strong feelings about the duckface. who cares? why do people have such problems with the duckface? it's a f***ing face move on people
I haven't seen the "duck face" pouting pics since I was in high school. I didn't know the phenomenon still occurs to this day. :P
Always wondered that myself...
BTW, it is actually called "pouting"
I have a friend that does that. Its so stupid. She said she doesn't like her smile.
I don't Ike it but it's supposed to be a pout. It's supposed to be cute
I hate it. Iād prefer to smile naturally. They say that natural smiles bring out the best in people
lol i think it's either just to be silly or accentuate the lips.
Yeah..
Cute girls making the "duck face", makes them very unattractive. So my feeling is. They apparently aren't interested in having a boyfriend & probably are planning a life of solitude.
So sad.. Because my wife of 32 years, has enhanced my life. We are a team, we complete each other & as hard as I try. I can't imagine my life without her.
I get told I actually look like a duck all the time.
Makes no difference to me I guess hahaha
