Acharya Prashant: Women like burly guys. Why do they like burly and big and muscular guys? Because they are likely to have a higher level of testosterone. Unless you have testosterone, you cannot build muscles, right? And that is why you cannot build muscles, let's say after 50 or 60. That's very difficult. Salman Khan is likely to lose his muscle now. He has crossed 50. Because his testosterone level is now dropping. And if you have big muscles using testosterone then it's a good sign for your ability to reproduce. And that's why women are trained to have a soft corner or let's say hard corners for big biceps. They think it's the big bicep that attracts them, what they don't understand is that Prakriti is using them to find someone more likely to have a high sperm count. That's what you call as love. A girl looking for a boy with a high sperm count.
Same with the men. What do you call beautiful in a woman? Her curvature, her hips, breasts—all of that just makes her just conducive for bearing a child. Exactly that which qualifies her to bear a child is taken as beautiful by you. So, all that you are looking for is someone who is going to be quite fertile. That's what Prakriti is making you look at.
You look at all that and then say, "Yeah! she is quite beautiful". Prakriti has distorted your entire definition of beauty.
In your eyes, beauty is that which is conducive to childbirth. And you don't even know that, you aren't conscious of that, it's all happening below the radar. You don't know that, so you say "I have fallen in love". "You know what, baby, I love the way you walk." More honest are those who simply say, which one was that?
