Beautiful people have genes like?
Half the world deserves the right to smile more than ever. Scientists have discovered that evolution is making women more beautiful. Meanwhile, men still maintain attractive aesthetic restrictions like their ancient ancestors.

Researchers found that beautiful women had more children than others and among them girls accounted for a higher percentage. Those daughters, when they grow up, also seduce and repeat that trend.
For generations, this has made women more aesthetically appealing. And a beautiful lineage is still going on. These findings are derived from a series of studies of the human body's attractiveness and its relationship to fertility.
Markus Jokela, a researcher at the University of Helsinki, found that women with beauty were 16% more likely to have children than the rest. He used data collected in the US, including samples of 1,244 women and 997 men during their 40 years of life. Their physical charm is judged based on photographs taken during the time of the investigation and there are also data on their number of children.
This study is based on the work of Satoshi Kanazawa, an evolutionary psychologist at the London School of Economics, who found that good-looking parents are more likely to have daughters. He also identified this as a cleverly programmed evolutionary plan into human DNA.
He cited two findings from the juvenile health study, a program supported by the US government with the participation of more than 15,000 Americans. Measurements include an objective assessment of the charm in appearance. A research result suggests that women are often concerned by both sexes because of their aesthetic appeal. The remaining conclusion states that the most attractive parents will often have fewer boys about 26%.
Kanazawa expressed: "Seduction of appearance is a very powerful genetic trait, which increases the asymmetry of a girl's ability to give birth to a boy".
'If parents are more attractive to have more daughters and if the appearance appeal is a genetic trait, then it is clear that women over many generations will become more attractive in appearance than men .'
On the contrary, in men, good looks don't seem to be very important, with handsome men being less successful than the rest in terms of the number of children they have. This means the pressure to evolve in appearance with smaller men.
These findings coincide with the celebration of the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth, the author of the theory of evolution, for the first time describing the power to create all species.
However, even he may be surprised at the sophistication of the effects being studied by researchers when considering human union.
Genetics of attractive appearance is widely recognized. When Elizabeth Jagger became a model, her mother, former model Jerry Hall, said: 'That profession is already in its genes.'
Women can be comforted with the conclusion that men are subject to another type of evolutionary pressure.
Gayle Brewer, a psychology lecturer at the University of Central Lancashire, said: 'Men and women look for different things in their couple.'
'For women, the beauty of a man is not as important as that he has the ability to take care of himself during pregnancy, when he is ill. Historically, that means rich men often have more wives and more children. So the pressure on men is to be successful and rich. "
