For women vs. men
Women: For women, a left-cheek mole is read as boldness, independence and leadership — a woman comfortable holding authority. Under "men-left, women-right," the left side is the less classically "lucky" side for women, so it points to power earned through effort rather than ease.
Men: For men, the left cheek is the favoured side: natural authority, courage and standing that grows with age. Strong for managers, founders and public roles.
Left vs. right: Left cheek = drive, courage, public authority. For men this is the auspicious side; for women it emphasises self-made status.
