The degree of masculinity or femininity in a person’s attributes determines to whom they might be most attracted, with people often seeking out partners who balance their own levels of masculinity and femininity. Androgyny, in which an individual has an equal balance of masculine and feminine attributes, can be seen as the “perfect” middle ground on the spectrum of attraction.
