Where I live, most men have some degree of jaw recession, while women tend to have stronger jawlines, even if not perfect. Is it only where I live, or have you noticed that too?

    This one of those local things that makes possible to distinguish different ethnicities. Humans propagate physical traits genetically, therefore if a group of people has similar origins they will have some facial features in common as well.

    Do you live in a culture where most men smoke and women don’t? Chew coca or kat? That could be a cause, from receding gums.
    Alcohol and diet could affect it as well.

    I can’t say I’ve been paying close attention. If I were forced to guess I would have said the opposite: men have stronger jawlines.
