I'm still struggling to understand that people actually can look at a person and feel attracted to them. I think I must be some kind of asexual. I used to think it was just an expression, exaggeration, joke, something besides people being literal about just seeing a person and wanting to be with them. I get it that some (probably most) people do feel and experience actual physical attraction, but I am not one of them. It seems a really weird and irrelevant thing to be concerned with when considering someone for a partner.

The most traffic on the internet is porn.
Testosterone has a LOT to do with sexual interests, in males.

It was evidently a "survival of the species advantage" in humanity's early history in particular.
And it is simply a NATURAL part of life.
You may as well be outraged at predators killing for food to survive.
Life is not pretty...
But it is what it is...

Having said that, social de-emphasis on looks is a positive thing, imo.
But not to the point of our denying our understanding who/what we are.
Being an avid student of understanding human psychology, I can see it is important to be honest with ourselves.
Political Correctness and woke ideology simply encourage dissociation from the realities of life.
And how is psychological confusion a good thing in any form?
Not a fan of social brainwashing.
