Edit: I do not understand why I am getting downvoted here? It should be fairly obvious that this is not a sexual thing? Do people disagree with it being beautiful?

    Humans are emotional creatures and make life and death decisions based on them. It’s a flawed system, but it has worked adequately so far. For example, taking care of the people in your tribe boils down to emotions. This sort of cohesion keeps the tribe together and safe, so I would consider that a successful survival mechanisim.

      Humans have emotions, yes, but it is not why we succeeded. ALL animals have emotions. If we blame our success on our emotions, then every animal should be as successful as we are. which they aren’t. Humans are the Wise Man for a reason. Our primary adaptions that allowed is to survive over other animals is our intelligence and broad diet. might not be as romantic as our emotions think it should be, but that’s what the evidence says.
