I was discussing the oblong face with Zea_Mays over email one
time. Here is our dialogue:
[quote]Whenever in doubt, I recommend going back to neoteny.
While we agree that Oblong is less robust than Square, do you
not think that Oblong is actually the LEAST neotenous of all the
shapes, even less so than Square? I have seen children with
Square, Pentagon, Round and Oval faces, but have you ever seen a
child with an Oblong face? I haven't. Therefore Oblong could be
viewed as a terminal group for selective pressure that minimizes
neoteny.
From a face shape standpoint I agree Oblongs are the least
neotenous (I've also never seen a child with such a shape), but
if we also take into account somatotype, many Oblongs seem to be
rather tall/skinny. This leads me to think that they must have
at least some interplay with Ovals (who are the 'core'
ectomorphic type). Perhaps Oblongs are a terminal group rather
than a 'transition' group, but if shapes like the Square and
Pentagon--which are associated with core racial groups--can
transform, surely Oblongs could too?
Again let's look at how children's face shapes change as they
become adults.
Square adults were Square or Round children.
Pentagon adults were Pentagon, Oval or Round children.
Oval adults were Oval, Round or Pentagon children. (Note that
this is the same set as the Pentagon.)
Round adults were Round, Oval or Pentagon children. (Same set
again.)
Oblong adults were Oval or Square children.
Not only is the Oblong the odd one out in terms of not being
able to map onto itself, but also the Pentagon, Oval and Round
taken together map onto themselves. This suggests to me that the
Oblong is a dead end.
That is a very good argument. I suppose if I look at the
transitions in a more "fluid" manner, then having shapes take a
"detour" through a group like the Elongated Pentagon before
transforming into Oval makes more sense than going directly
through the Oblong.
It is interesting that you mention a connection between Rounds
and Ovals. It is technically possible for an Oval to be reduced
to a Round, although I'm not sure how common this is in real
life.[/quote]

Yes, consider school shooter Adam Lanza. Here is a picture of
(pre-teen) Lanza, where he tends toward oval:

oblong:

I agree academically with our enemy Taylor:
HTML https://www.amren.com/news/2022/10/anthony-trollopes-white-genius/
[quote]It occurred to me, as I read the last few pages of
Barchester Towers, that a taste for Anthony Trollope is
something else that sends an almost unerring racial signal. You
could add “reads Trollope” to the profile of people you would
like to meet through a dating service, and you wouldn’t have to
specify race. If Detroit still has public libraries, I bet the
Trollope volumes never leave the shelves.
...
people who are forced to read him before they are old enough to
understand him hate him just as they hate Shakespeare or
Dickens, but for those who discover him when they are ready, he
is pure joy.[/quote]
In other words, only the sufficiently adulterated can like
Trollope.
[quote]Some people like this kind of writing and some don’t.
Some people like opera and some don’t. But I think it is hard to
like Anthony Trollope and not be white.
This is hardly unique to Trollope, of course. All the great
authors of Western literature — and some critics do not even
rank Trollope among the really great — have the same subtle
understanding of human nature and make the same demands on
readers. They appeal to a sensibility that is not only
thoroughly adult, but adult in a way that is thoroughly
European.[/quote]
In other words, Taylor's claim is that low neoteny is a defining
characteristic of "whiteness". I agree with this claim. I have
explained before that the way in which True Left wokeness
despise "whiteness" should be emotionally similar to the way in
which Original Nobility despises adulthood. This is in contrast
to the False Left approach of attempting to portray "non-whites"
as more mature than "whites".
The enemy article also includes a picture of Trollope:

[quote]I believe that Western civilization considers itself
superior to non-Western civilizations in the same sense that
adults consider themselves superior to children. And just as
children have been mostly conditioned to agree that adults
really are superior by accepting the adult standards of
superiority, non-Western civilizations have similarly been
mostly conditioned to agree that Western civilization is
superior by accepting Western standards of superiority. Only we
can see that the truth is the complete opposite.[/quote]

I recently found this GIF of skulls. However, I could only find
the GIF showing the differences in the two races shown. Though I
have seen gracile face shapes in people of all races, it is
rare, and I would say even rarer in East Asians. I've always
wondered why I couldn't see many East Asians as other people do
in terms of how neotenous they are, and this GIF helped me see
why. It seems like a lot of people do not consider gracility and
neoteny in the same boat, as many faces considered, "neotenous"
are quite round and wide looking...Unless I am seeing wrong.

The GIF you posted is Eurocentrist propaganda. It is easy to
find counterexamples:

(See also:

/>)
Gracility and neoteny are not the same thing, as there exist
people who are already robust as children (e.g.
HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/human-evolution/sexual-dimorphism-preferences/msg17900/#msg17900<br
/>). When we associate gracility with neoteny, we are talking
about those who were not robust as children who also manage to
avoid gaining robustness during puberty being more neotenous
than (and hence superior to) those who were not robust as
children but who gain robustness during puberty.
The general rule is: the lighter the effects of puberty on a
person, the more neotenous the person is.
This is most clearly seen in body hair (which increases most
during puberty):
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_hair#Across_populations
[quote]Stewart W. Hindley and Albert Damon of the Department of
Anthropology at Stanford University studied, in 1973, the
frequency of hair on the middle finger joint (mid-phalangeal
hair) of Solomon Islanders, as a part of a series of
anthropometric studies of these populations. They summarize
other studies on prevalence of this trait as reporting, in
general, that Caucasoids are more likely to have hair on the
middle finger joint than Negroids and Mongoloids, and collect
the following frequencies from previously published literature:
Andamanese 0%, Eskimo 1%, African American 16% or 28%,
Ethiopians 25.6%, Mexicans of the Yucatan 20.9%, Penobscot and
Shinnecock 22.7%, Gurkha 33.6%, Japanese 44.6%, various Hindus
40–50%, Egyptians 52.3%, Near Eastern peoples 62–71%, various
Europeans 60–80%. However, they never completed an Androgenic
hair map.[18]
According to anthropologist and professor Ashley Montagu in
1989, Asian people and black people such as the San people are
less hairy than white people. Montagu said that the hairless
feature is a neotenous trait.[19][/quote]

Who is Jack Teixeira, the man arrested over Pentagon files leak?
HTML https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/13/who-is-jack-teixeira-the-man-arrested-over-pentagon-files-leak
[quote]
In photographs, Jack Teixeira, the 21-year-old air national
guardsman who has been identified as the prime suspect in the
leak of classified intelligence documents, is slim in his dark
blue air force uniform. He is youthful looking, barely older
than the teenage friends seen in the online group in which the
classified documents were leaked.
On Thursday evening, the FBI arrested Teixeira and were
searching his home. Video footage from a local TV station showed
him being led away in handcuffs.
Teixeira was identified by the New York Times as the leading
figure in an online gaming chat group, Thug Shaker Central, on
the social network Discord. The details that have emerged about
Teixeira have put him in the frame as a person of interest in
the leak investigation.
Deployed in the 102nd intelligence wing of the Massachusetts air
national guard, Teixeira was also a key member of a group of
about 30 people who shared an interest in guns, video games and
racist memes.[/quote]

Youthful looking (neoteny) =/= Aryan looking (gracility).
