I believe those of us who are sighted will have some bias as to what/whom we see. (A smiling person may cause another to smile, a well-dressed person may command respect, envy, etc., a sloppily dressed person may elicit comments, stares, looks of disgust.) A non-sighted person, even though he or she may not see, might, via other senses, react positively or negatively to a person or situation. Attraction to another is not easily explained. Attractiveness to many is generally easily explained in that a person is generally found acceptable to the masses because of societal standards of acceptance. I believe senses, living life and our individual choices dictate what is acceptable to each of us.
