Another discovery that they found was that women where better at remembering faces than men, to prove this they did a an experiment where they presented three groups of participants with black and white pictures of hairless, androgynous faces and described them as ‘female faces,’ ‘male faces’ or just ‘faces.’ The results where found that women where able to remember female faces than the male faces.
