You really shouldn't be talking about wider packages.

Anyway, I'm more concerned with personality than aesthetics, actually. But when I like someone's personality, it can feed into how I perceive their looks. A fairly normal process psychologically, I assume.

[Is that a dig saying his psychological processes are abnormal??]

Oh. Yes. Personality and aesthetics both link into arousal - but when experiencing physiological responses related to fear, people mislabel those responses as arousal. Complicated, isn't it?

[Defensive much?]

Arousal? That's taking it a step or two further. Needs to be someone special for that.

Psychology never struck me as simple. Are we talking adrenaline here?

[restingstitchface]

Yes. Amongst other factors, such as emotion and neurotransmitters epinephrine. It's a fascinating field of research.

If you say so. I flunked out of high school, so this is clearly going over my head.

Though I know you're the expert.
