  • Kevin Rosenfield, then at Roehampton University in the UK, and his colleagues studied rhesus macaques in Puerto Rico, to find out why female monkeys spend more time staring at males with masculine faces. Possible reasons says Rosenfield include, females may have been attracted to masculine faces, perhaps linking them with better genes, or scared because they associated them with aggression, while Ian Stephen at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia says, it's a bit like a guy saying.
