For further questions, write to Mokele who is an expert here in Wikipedia. I still think this idea is right, but a reliable source is needed first. So I'm moving the sentences to the talk page here for the time being until things become clearer. I had checked with a biologist who at one point suggested this material was already known, but lately suggested it's not known and may be speculative and probably is original research. sentences added but removed summer 2011. If faces were not symmetrical, then the mind would have a more challenging cognitive task of comparing the seen face with a remembered standard face.

The mind can make this mental comparison in a split second to look for aberrations, distortions, or lopsided features. There is a visual copy of each side in plain view making it easy for a person to judge if left matches right. When a face is symmetrical vertically, so that left and right sides mirror each other along a vertical axis, the mirroring makes it easy cognitively and perceptively for a human mind to tell if the two sides match.
