Why is it so taboo to admit that you like physically attractive people?

1 Answer

Answer :

It’s not. I suppose if all you want in a person is looks, some people might read it as shallow but I still haven’t been able to get anyone to tell me why they think they can call others so when they clearly aren’t very deep themselves. Some people don’t care for looks but they might care for things I’d consider shallow like how established a person is in society (how laughable) or how much money they want to make.
