Both men and women. Is it to do with the way they smile/pose for the camera or something? Seriously, I can almost tell someone is American by the way their neck looks in a photo

This is me. Competitive swimming and wrestling as a youth, along with many years of rock climbing.

My upper back and neck is disproportionately larger than my lower torso and legs.
