Uh-Oh! They Got Mad: Is Sex Appeal a Lost Art in 2025?
Manage episode 444215360 series 1761816
Last week, I replied to a post on X that ruffled some feathers. It was about sex appeal. Now I'm wondering if we've lost the art of sex appeal? Have we forgotten about the science of attraction?
As Dr. Wendy L. Patrick wrote in Psychology Today, "many people are intrigued by the proverbial mysterious stranger." Even the headline is titled How Intrigue Sparks Attraction. After receiving backlash for my reply to that post, I'm not sure that society believes in sex appeal anymore.
My response appreciated the mystery of sex appeal and how it awakens the imagination. Isn't that at the core of attraction? Imagination?
Better Help's staff shared an article on the science of attraction and highlighted how the mind comes alive when we encounter a beautiful mystery. In a society of weirdos and defensiveness, have we forgotten that attraction is about science? Are we uncomfortable with sex appeal?
