From an early age, we are indoctrinated by society with the notion that looks don't matter when we seek a partner.
They say it's the emotional, not physical side that's truly important, but is this really plausible? Before we are the spiritual, higher beings we make ourselves out to be, we are animals. We have a base instinct to seek out a partner that we believe will provide strong, viable, and fertile offspring.
We are tuned to acknowledge the physical attraction, so, would it not be more true to say that a physical attraction must exist for a truly successful relationship?
Discuss!
I want to hear a few opinions first, and based on those I may start throwing science stuff at you.
