abstract = {The categorization of dominant facial features, such as
sex, is a highly relevant function for social interaction.
It has been found that attributes of the perceiver, such as
their biological sex, influence the perception of sexually
dimorphic facial features with women showing higher
recognition performance for female faces than men. However,
evidence on how aspects closely related to biological sex
influence face sex categorization are scarce. Using a
previously validated set of sex-morphed facial images
(morphed from male to female and vice versa), we aimed to
investigate the influence of the participant’s gender role
identification and sexual orientation on face sex
categorization, besides their biological sex. Image ratings,
questionnaire data on gender role identification and sexual
orientation were collected from 67 adults (34 females).
Contrary to previous literature, biological sex per se was
not significantly associated with image ratings. However, an
influence of participant sexual attraction and gender role
identity became apparent: participants identifying with male
gender attributes and showing attraction toward females
perceived masculinized female faces as more male and
femininized male faces as more female when compared to
participants identifying with female gender attributes and
attraction toward males. Considering that we found these
effects in a predominantly cisgender and heterosexual
sample, investigation of face sex perception in individuals
identifying with a gender different from their assigned sex
(i.e., transgender people) might provide further insights
into how assigned sex and gender identity are related.},
