'''Gay Alien Phenotype''' is a specific look many [[Men|male]] models have, to the point its become a [[meme]]. Forum users on [[Looksmax.org|looksmax]] constantly debate the actual defining factors of gay alien phenotype but rarely come to any consensus other than that this look constitutes ranking at high tier on the [[PSL rating|PSL scale]] (around a [[Chad|PSL 8]] despite the odd appearance). The name itself implies that people with GAP have such a distinct, striking look that it would be inaccurate to call them human in appearance. The gay part might be [[physiognomy]] relating to the [[homochad hypothesis]].

Australian model [[Jordan Barrett]] is often held up as prime example of the Gay Alien archetype by [[Puahate Sluthate Lookism (PSL)|PSL]] users. His extremely compact midface along with his high positive [[canthal tilt]] and extremely sculpted and lean face may contribute to this characterization.<ref>https://looksmax.org/threads/wow-jordan-barrett-is-looking-like-a-literal-gay-alien-these-days.575528/</ref>

Other models commonly referred to as Gay aliens include Elias De Poot, [[Sean O'Pry]] & Andreas Eriksen.

Some have suggested women can also be "gay aliens;" for example, the Swedish supermodel and [[Gigastacy]] Elsa Hosk has been referred to as such.<ref>https://looksmax.org/threads/what-the-fuck-is-a-gay-alien.289883/</ref> Hosk has extreme PCT and a very compact midface, which give her a highly [[neoteny|neotenous]] appearance. Neoteny may also contribute to the "gay" part of this archetype.
