[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not purely innate.

Beauty and "hotness" are standards that are indeed culturally determined. That is clear to anyone who pays attention to changing norms over the decades as well as the impact the internet.

The US has had a bigger impact on global standards in the age of the internet. [/quote]

Oh, nonsense.  Nothing has changed in the "age of the internet" any more than it did in the "age of the magazine, the age of the movie or the age of photography."

Adonis and Aphrodite are attributable to the ancients as to what attracts women and men to one another.  Nothing has changed in thousands of years.   [/quote]

You are not well informed. Not purely innate, and standards for sexual attractiveness have indeed changed over time. Read a history book. Or two. The internet created a global culture and had a dramatic effect on reshaping standards for beauty and sexual attractiveness. If you are Gen X or older you have seen this yourself if you are someone who pays attention to culture or travels.[/quote]
