• Vocal and Physiological Changes in Response to the Physical Attractiveness of Conversational Partners (2010, background): “For instance, the voices of those with greater bilateral body symmetry are rated as sounding more attractive than those possessing less symmetrical features, and body symmetry has been shown to be a marker of developmental fitness (Hughes et al. 2002).”
• A domain-specific opposite-sex bias in human preferences for manipulated voice pitch. (2010, background): “…vocal attractiveness in men and women is associated with other putative indices of health and fertility (e.g. facial attractiveness, Collins & Missing 2003; low waist - hip ratio in women or high shoulder - hip ratio in men, Hughes et al. 2004; low fluctuating asymmetry, Hughes et al. 2002, 2008).”
