The part you highlight about shminux’s comment is correct, but this part:
this would define “looks attractive to a certain subset of humans”
is wrong; attractiveness is psychological reactions to things, not the things themselves. Theoretically you could alter the things and still produce the attractiveness response; not to mention the empirical observation that for any given thing, you can find humans attracted to it. Since that part of the comment is wrong but the rest of it is correct, I can’t vote on it; the forces cancel out. But anyway I find that to be a better explanation for its prior downvotation than a cadre of anti-shminux voters.
Mind you I downvoted JohnEPaton’s comment because he got all of this wrong.
