I was wondering the same thing. In fact, I even asked this question in the pictures section. I think what some people missed was that the poster was asking about forehead size in proportion to one's face. I have thought for a while that although my face is small, my forehead seems a bit large compared to the rest of my face. Now that I think of it, my Aspie-seeming uncles also have foreheads that seem larger in proportion to their faces. The Neanderthals theory is interesting. Plus, the excess testosterone thing. I know I at times have excess androgens and I am female! One of my sisters and I have "male" hands, indicating exposure to excess testesterone in the womb. My mother is the one I get my Aspie traits from.

I really don't know about the forehead per se, however the first time that I shaved my head when I was 18, people remarked that my head was quite large in proportion to my body.

I think my forehead is quite average. Not too big, not too small

I might have a pretty high foreead. The back of my head is a little flat, but I have a big head for my size and its mostly face. My husband also has a big head and a high forehead.

This has no factual basis, therefore it's incorrect. I'm seeing alot of mixed responses.
Although, my forehead is rather small. :D

I have a large, very broad head with a thick, muscular neck. I'm very heavily built in general as well.

I am 6'2" tall, I have a rather large head and vis-a-vis the proportionality of the forehead as regards the face, my forehead probably consumes 40% of my face.

The back of my hear is also flat. It is almost at a 90 degree angle. I also am a rather hairy man. However, my mother always attributed it to my French ancestry. (I am 75% French-Canadian ancestry and 25% Irish ancestry).
