A new study has replicated the findings from a two year old study which had concluded that gayface is real and machine learning algorithms can accurately predict from facial characteristics alone which human subjects are gay or straight.
From the abstract of the more recent study,
Recent research used machine learning methods to predict a persons sexual orientation from their photograph (Wang and Kosinski, 2017). To verify this result, two of these models are replicated, one based on a deep neural network (DNN) and one on facial morphology (FM). Using a new dataset of 20,910 photographs from dating websites, the ability to predict sexual orientation is confirmed (DNN accuracy male 68%, female 77%, FM male 62%, female 72%). To investigate whether facial features such as brightness or predominant colours are predictive of sexual orientation, a new model trained on highly blurred facial images was created. This model was also able to predict sexual orientation (male 63%, female 72%). The tested models are invariant to intentional changes to a subjects makeup, eyewear, facial hair and head pose (angle that the photograph is taken at). It is shown that the head pose is not correlated with sexual orientation. While demonstrating that dating profile images carry rich information about sexual orientation these results leave open the question of how much is determined by facial morphology and how much by differences in grooming, presentation and lifestyle. The advent of new technology that is able to detect sexual orientation in this way may have serious implications for the privacy and safety of gay men and women.
A description of Deep Neural Networks and Facial Morphology,
Two of their models used ML techniques to predict sexual orientation from a photograph of a face. One used deep neural networks (DNN) [1, Study 1a] to extract features from the cropped facial image (see Figure 1.1). The second study used only facial morphology [1, Study 3]. Facial morphology refers to the shape and position of the main facial features (such as eyes and nose) and the outline of the face (see Figure 1.2 for an example of the information available in the facial morphology studies). The images were gathered from online dating profiles and from Facebook. The data was limited to white individuals from the United States.
Briefly, DNN is a zoomed-in version of facial morphology analysis. One wonders if the gayface researchers only studied White faces for fear of offending the thin-skinned POCs.
For comparison, W&K [1] also ran an experiment in which they tested humans’ ability to detect sexual orientation from the same photographs. They found that humans are able to predict sexual orientation with modest success, achieving an accuracy measured by the Area Under the Curve (AUC) of AUC=.61 for male images and AUC=.54 for female images. Both their ML models outperformed the humans. The deep learning classifier had an accuracy of AUC=.81 for males and AUC=.71 for females [1, Study 1a]. The facial morphology classifier scored AUC=.85 for males and AUC=.70 for females [1, Study 4].
Humans have pretty good gaydar, but AI beats them. Coincidentally, AI is more racist than humans.
I suspect that human gaydar accuracy would improve if only urbanites who lived among lots of gays were studied. Gayface is one of those things — like Specialface — that you can’t miss once you’ve become accustomed to seeing it and familiar with its peculiarities. Flyovers who rarely see a gay or a [special] can have trouble identifying some of the marginal cases, which is why, for instance, South Carolinians missed Lindsey Graham’s light loafers and why so many evangelicals can’t tell that their preachers are obviously gay and/or low T cucks.
W&K note that their second model can predict sexual orientation from the individual components of the face, such as the contour of the face or the mouth. In particular, the facial contour predicts sexual orientation with an accuracy of AUC=.75 for men and AUC=.63 for women. Based on this outcome, W&K make the claim that this validates a theory of sexual orientation called prenatal hormone theory (PHT) [4, 5, 6]. PHT predicts that gay people will have “gender-atypical” facial morphology due to their exposure to differing hormone environments in the womb. They argue that this finding is unlikely to be due to different styles of presentation or grooming because it is quite difficult to alter the contour of one’s face [1].
The researchers go on to explain that their new machine learning algorithm controlled for factors like photo angle, facial hair, makeup, and eyewear, and still accurately predicted sexual orientation from facial morphology, bolstering the hypothesis that gayface is the result of a prenatal influence on the developing fetus. Or: Swishiognomy is real.
FYI, in a tangential discovery that will shock no one, straight women have a greater preference for wearing makeup than do lesbians.
The composite male faces:
I bet every reader here could have easily identified the gayfaces from the chadfaces without knowing beforehand. There’s just something in the way gays loooooook…….
A prankster tried out the new GayI:
Ok, but the psychopath AI pinged loudly.

Is she interested or not?
Taken girl, spare me the lecture.
She shows interest in many ways….
1. One day at the office I was gazing at her across the room (50 feet away) while talking to someone. She gazed about the room for a moment and did a double take when she saw me looking. We locked eyes intently from a distance for about 8-10 solid seconds, then I started to smile and she smiled back.
[CH: 10 second eye lock? she’s DTF, and maybe DT stalk.]
2. At a happy hour I was running game on a 3 set of girls we all know, 2 very attractive, and she came over to join. Girl 1 mentioned 2x about how she had nothing tying her to the area any longer and referenced her ex once. As a result, taken girl slowly moves to physically block girl 1 from the group and engages me face to face.
3. Later that night, when I joined another group that taken girl was already in, one girl in that group immediately asked me what I was doing that night. Taken girl then interrupts and asks me “wait, don’t you have a gf?”. Turns out the one who asked what I was doing later was looking for someone to hook up with and had stated how she “needed to get laid”.
4. Still later that night when we were near each other taken girl started talking about her man and how he works 2nd shift so she is always busy. She then saw I had heard and then states “I am basically a single mom”.
5. BUT, I send her a text right after she left the bar referencing a funny story and she never replied. Keep in mind I only have her number from a group text a couple of months ago….
[brief regret. she probably had gotten a text from her husband just before she got yours. and you’re texting a number that she likely shares with her husband, not a burner phone. she got spooked.]
Verdict?
[she’s interested. but you knew that already. now the choice is whether you blow up a family and make her a single mom for good, or you leverage off her to hit on one of her cuter single friends.]

These are interactions at two events, so I wouldn’t say I was “orbiting”. I rarely talk to her.
But fair enough, that was my thought regarding her interest when she didn’t text back. She wasn’t making it easy like a typical interested girl does.
My not shying away from the intent stare for sure displayed my interest before I gamed her.
But she sure did block two girls from trying to hook up with me.
[CH: keep in mind it’s not uncommon for married moms to want to feel desired by men other than their husbands. they will flirt and cuntblock other girls to get the feeling of being desired. this doesn’t always mean a woman like this would actually opt for the bang (even if she fantasizes about it) which is why she’ll shrink away the moment you make an unmistakable move on her.]

You’re exactly right Heartiste. Her husband had texted her right before she left saying the kids wouldn’t go to bed until she was there. She said that was his way of getting her to go home. I am sure they exchanged texts as she was leaving.

I thought she may have been using me for attention after ignoring that text. But I rarely see IOI’s on that level and not have the woman make it easy for me. So I was totally confused and figured Heartiste would have good insight.
In either case, it’s a no at this point. Based on Heartiste’s point about breaking up a family, and your good points as well.

Do you have a gf? And what did you say? Her display of your preselection was a great game opportunity:
“It’s complicated”
“Kinda”
“Not anymore”
“Yes but she’s not the jealous type”
“She’s always asking me to find a girl we can threesome with”
Did you just allow taken girl to interrupt and c block? You could’ve thot patrolled her with some a hole game too:
“wait your turn”
“hush now, grown up talk”
Or ignore taken girl’s interruption and answer other girl’s question about what you’re doing tonight:
“You”
So what happened? This might’ve been your best window of opportunity in your story.

Not sure Im on board with this; sounds like theyre trying to give queers an excuse – ‘But I was born that way!’ . Never be convinced that such perversion isnt a choice.
