    Being healthy, of course, does contribute to one’s attractiveness.

    But human beauty is really too subjective.

    We may dislike people seeming familiar. We may like people seeming familiar more.

    We may like people similar to us in appearance. We may particularly dislike people similar to us in appearance.

    Also clothes affect people’s appearance quite a lot. If people in the area you do shopping for clothes are in average less like you in appearance and weight and everything, and people in some other area more, you might find them more attractive simply because the choice of clothes is a bit better, and the habit of wearing better fitting clothes.

    And another very important component is what you expect to see. I mean, “how much cleaner they keep places” … which countries have you visited?

      Canada, New Zealand, and Japan. I’m sure plenty don’t apply to the cleaner statement, but these places were really nice.

        Well, these don’t surprise me, but trying something outside of the first world might yield different results.
