Abstract
Secondary sexual characteristics convey informationabout reproductive potential. Inthe sameway that facial symmetry
and masculinity, and shoulder-to-hip ratio convey information about reproductive/genetic quality in males, waist-to-hip-
ratio(WHR)isaphenotypiccuetofertility,fecundity,neurodevelopmentalresourcesinoffspring,andoverallhealth,andis
indicativeof‘‘goodgenes’’inwomen.Here,usingfMRI,wefoundthatmalesshowactivationinbrainrewardcentersin

Whenregressingratingsofattractivenessonbrainactivation,weobservedactivationinforebrainsubstrates,notablythe
