SIMILAR BUT DIFFERENT SCENARIO: You’re a middle-aged manager & you’re married. You’re hiring for a new position. It comes down to 2 candidates, about equally qualified. One you find attractive, the other you don’t. You’re more likely to choose:
#poll
The one you’re *attracted to*
The one you’re *not attracted to*

There’s a subconscious bias where you think attractive people have better qualities (are nicer, more successful, even smarter). Everyone has it but they don’t necessarily do it on purpose. It’s called the halo effect.
