I know, it sound so seductive. But it isn't true. The good genes theory has failed miserably in recent high quality studies. I loved it too, but I bowed out. Beauty is l'art pour l'art.
It is not important for the fundamental question are differences in beauty among individuals OF THE SAME AGE linked to markers of health and good genes.?Decreasing fertility with age is a given in the equation.

Reduced beauty with older age could be easily explained as an honest indicator of reduced fertility. That leaves the more exciting question: Are beauty differences between same age individuals an honest indicator of anything? The latests results seem to indicate they are not.
