Left of Center, Right of Center

[firstfrost]

Yay! My data point showed up!

The score so far is:
Left 5
Middle 9
Right 8

Left is a little bit twe, which she had already guessed. All the people who thought that one was feminine were on the right track. Right is a little bit kirisutogomen, so I'm pleased that he liked that one best. I declare the experiment a success! Oh, and the middle one is just Bush, but blurred a little, as a control. That one certainly gets points for looking most like a real person.

(Though it's particularly amusing that several people commented that the right guy looked more friendly, because the picture being used to morph with is really rather alarming).

I need more mug shots of people I know. :)

Poo. So much for my early lead.

Not having gone back and looked at the votes, but is the the case the votes for the left-hand one were all from women? :)

And do the statistics change if you omit the people who explicitly said "the one in the middle looked most like Bush-in-real-life, so I'm voting against/for him"? :)

but I lost

I lost to G.W.Bush.

I think you should run un-retouched pictures of me vs. him.
