TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I remember reading an article a few years ago (I couldn't tell you where),
in which some psychologist studied what people look for as "beauty" in other
people. Asymmetry wasn't it. The study found that people found members of
the opposite sex with symmetrical facial features more attractive. The less
symmetrical the face was, the less interested the study participants were. I
don't remember if they looked at body symmetry, I just remember the point
about facial symmetry. (Mostly because I'm not--a devastating discovery at
the time.)
