When we are attracted to a person,male or female,same or opposite gender. It is for our own good feeling. As Vee said ''in your life'' Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

each complements the other, if you can figure out how to live together

I believe that the foundation behind physical attraction is perpetuation of the species.

But all you have to do is look at popular culture (books, movies, etc.) to see that romantic love is deeply imbedded in the notion of being human. So it goes beyond just procreation. The act of sex is an act of attraction, but (when accompanied by intimacy) it also serves to bond partners in a way that transcends baby-making.

Like all worldly things, sex and attraction are reflections of spiritual components (or, to put it another way, "manifestations" of spirituality). They are the things by which we wrap our spiritual being in human experiences.

A spiritual being would look at it as a great opportunity to recharge one's batteries through fair exchange of strength (by the male) for the inspiration/blessing (from the female) Having said that, the most attractive one to us is usually the one we've already contracted with prior to birth.
