Abstract: Abstract Perrett et al. reply — Our computer graphic manipulations of the ‘geometrical’ differences between male and female face shapes generate stimuli that embody the ‘psychological’ meaning of masculinity and femininity1. Meyer and Quong question whether our stimuli accurately imitate the ‘biological’ effect of sex hormones on facial structure, arguing that this should be defined from same-sex individuals whose levels of sex hormones differ.
