What Does Attractive Mean?
Attractive is a word that may be described as “pleasant to the eye or mind particularly through attractiveness or charisma; having control to stimulate interest; attractive: having the properties of a crowd-puller; or the aptitude to draw or pull “. Thus, in general it refers to either physical attractiveness or to an attractive or repulsive force (in physics). The most common usage of the term is in the sense of physical attractiveness, which is the perception of certain physical traits as attractive or beautiful. These could be of a person, a group, type of people or race. There are numerous implications of such attractiveness which includes (yet not limited to) physique, sexual attractiveness and “cuteness”. While views of the attractiveness of physical traits can be partly considered universal to all human cultures, it is also dependent on the culture/society or the time period, as well as a matter of individual preference.
