Abstract
- The article explores the issue of discrimination in dating based on physical appearance, known as aprioristic sexual lookism (ASL). It discusses the moral implications of ASL and whether individuals should reject potential partners solely based on their appearance. The article argues that while there are reasons to avoid ASL, it may not be feasible or respectful to date others out of duty. It emphasizes the importance of addressing dating discrimination through individual conduct and structural and cultural remedies. The text also discusses the social meanings and expectations associated with dating practices and the need for a more egalitarian approach. [Extracted from the article]
