Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Studies have shown that people generally prefer faces that are slightly feminized, regardless of the gender of the face. This preference is thought to be because slightly feminized features are associated with traits such as kindness, warmth, and honesty. Additionally, women are more likely to perceive men with slightly feminized faces as seeking a long-term relationship, hence the association with placing a personal ad seeking a special lady to love and cherish.
