There are multiple reasons you stand to give a second stare to someone you just met, or why you are so explicable drawn to someone- be it a celebrity, someone at work or college or a new crush. If it is jaws for Robert Pattinson, it could be eyes for Miley. Noses too play a major role is fixing our facial features and we are often drawn to people with attractive noses. What causes these noses to have different shapes? Do they mean anything? We all must’ve quipped over this at some leisure time. Well there are a variety of reasons why noses are as they are. If we were to toe the scientific line, nasal cavities play the god here. Biggger the volume of the nasal cavity, bigger will be the maxillary sinuses in both populations and this plays a role in shaping our overall facial features including the shape of the nose. There are also theories that noses that evolved in cold weather would function differently as opposed to those that formed in hot,humid climates.
Whatever be the debates the fact stays that we all have noses as different as our names and these shapes probably come with their package of meanings as well.
