attraction is almost completely defined by society, and how we talk about desirable traits informs that.
take weight for instance:
in late feudal/early industrial society a heavy set person was seen as very attractive. access to the resources to become fat was hard, so a fat person was rich and the weight conveyed power.
in the same feudal/industrial time pale skin was also seen as very attractive, because it meant the person didn't have to labor outside for a living.
now thin tan people are all the rage, but you're saying we don't decide on what is attractive as a society?
