This question occurred to me after the recent uptick in the popularity of looksmaxxing, and the ensuing criticism of it as having little no no relation to what women find attractive. I was interested in philosophers who might address the discussion from a Kantian perspective. That is, focusing on the question of whether the judgement of people without any underlying attraction to men (thus being disinterested) might be more relevant to the concept of beauty than that of those who might value agreeability over genuine aesthetic judgement. Since this is a relatively recent trend, I'm also interested in those who might have approached the notion of female beauty and its relation to physical attraction.
