i just notice this a lot.

main star of a show or movie has a very well-defined jawline but they're not exactly beautiful or handsome.

i just wonder why some people put too much premium on jawlines.

^^Yeah, I notice jawlines do make a good factor in determining one's beauty

but it's not always the case that a person with defined jawlines is beautiful/handsome. and i think this is where the casting directors might be mistaken.

for example, my jawlines are not very well-defined but i look handsome still.

i think we must stop looking at just one standard of beauty. jawlines aren't be-all-and-all for beauty.

I'm not even sure what does a "defined" jawline means tbh.

every time I google that a bunch of dudes with protruding bones below their ears appears, are they suppose to be beautiful? Mmm they look like fucking aliens to me, but alright.

Type "famous actors" into Google. Pretty much all of them have a strong jaw.

well he keyed in "well-defined" jawlines so your definition must be wrong.

i don't think most "famous" actors have well-defined jawlines. theirs are somewhat in the middle... a little defined but not so defined.

you see, what i'm saying here is, there has been an on-going rise in actors who play major roles whose jawlines are very defined even though they're not necessarily attractive...

and that is why i think this is just a fad.
