What makes someone attractive?

[redfiona99]

Just pondering. What with O'Haire being the new pin up (it's the swanton bomb curse I tell you).

You see back in the when about a month ago when Jeff was the hottie de jour, I'll admit I didn't get it. Good enough looking guy and all, I just didn't get it.

Now O'Haire meanwhile, the mad screaming over him I get. I more than get, I join in a lot of the time.

Same with E&C, I don't get why people go ga-ga over them from a looks point of view. Yet I find Ric Flair to be kinda cute.

Other than my obvious problems :) and the whole eye of the beholder thing, I was wondering if there was an equation that makes someone attractive to large numbers of people.

Maybe not always someone cool, but at least someone perverted.

Oh, one thing I forgot: men with strong eyebrows (not necessarily bushy, but at least prominent) are supposed to be more attractive. It means they're predisposed to be a good provider--prominent eyebrows prevent sweat from running into a man's eyes while he's chasing down food. =)

(This is me being cool...or perverted...)

Knowledge is never perverted, it's uses, maybe ;) Actually the eyebrow thing makes sense because all the blokes I know in RL that are considered to be hot are well endowed in the eyebrow department. Yet the hot girls have their eyebrows plucked to obscurity.
