Here's a study that found both men and women can predict the IQ of men based on their facial appearance. However, neither men or women could predic the IQ of women.
I don't think you can assume any of those bias assumptions form this article. There are well known attractiveness metrics that do not include race. The article gives no indication of the identities of those doing the ratings. The assumption that women are being judged more attractive than men belies your own identity as being a hetero male.
But the artificial task of collecting 500 washers with no other purpose than collecting them into a bin makes it hard to take any real meaning from this study.
You definitely cannot assume any of those bias assumptions from this article, for sure, but the point is you can't demonstrate that they are not. Maybe the actual experiment controlled for this, but if so the article here didn't mention any of that.
I think people gravitate towards people that are at least as attractive than themselves. IMO, very few people are truly unattractive, but generally, no one recognizes themselves as unattractive.
