I saw the topic and wanted to comment. I think something like who's attractive to who is very personal and can't be generalized. You like who y ...

But this also means that we can't complain about celebrities anymore, so what about the Popular Culture and Popular People fora? I'd be willing to lessen the entertainment value.

Sorry for the digression, guys. Please carry on.
