I'm heterosexual and preferred the women on the right too, and I agree they look more engaging and happy. I'm fairly surprised that the actual results were so skewed. And my wife's feelings are hurt because I tell her she's attractive and now she knows my taste is abnormal.

Same here. Actually, I'd say it's quite a compliment. Abnormal just means that you don't have typical tastes in beauty, so it means her beauty is of special kind. I found the first girl on the right definitely more attractive, but I generally find slightly more masculine looking women more attractive, even though I'm quite heterosexual. I guess most men just like more feminine looking women because of some kind of dominance instinct. (Though it could also just be a flawed study, a statistical fluke of some sort.)
