>How many times in an article about a male entrepreneur, or computer scientist, or other interesting person, is his subjective physical attractiveness even a topic of conversation?

All stories about Elon Musk in the mainstream media.

Yet Elon Musk is remembered is remembered and regarded as an entrepreneur, not as as a physically attractive person. Contrast this with women who are regarded as "sex symbols" and you'll see that their physical appearance is used to overshadow and demean their achievements.

  • That's probably why the grandparent of your comment mentions how impressive she is first, before going on to mention her physical attractiveness.

  • I was just giving an example of a male entrepreneur who is also known for his physical beauty, specifically what gp asked for.
