Another curious website. The “Faceanalyzer” claims to have “a patented process that correlates certain facial types to personality features.”
I can see how face recognition technology can assess certain facial characteristics to determine race. But I’m not sure about the science of determining “intelligence,” “politeness,” “promiscuity,” “gay factor,” and more from a picture.
Get a load of this “100% Anglo Saxon female” from their top ranking females list:

Female? Riiiiiiiiggggggggghhhhhtttttt…. Not unless he’s made a trip to Denmark recently… 🙂
Another interesting thing I’ve noticed: all of the pictures listed in the “top ranking females” (even the male picture that has somehow snuck onto the list) have low promiscuity ratings, while all the pictures listed in the top ranking males list have high promiscuity ratings. I have a suspicion that whatever is going on here, it isn’t analysis of the face…..
Heh.
I found it interesting that Ellen Degeneres has a “gay factor” score of 1.0, while Kirsten Dunst has a 4.9. Okay, so I was mainly interested by Ms. Dunst’s score.
