I am always astonished by how much we humans mix how moral is someone and how horny that someone makes us.
And it works both ways. To tell someone that you are not attracted to them is perceived as a judgement of their value in society and morality. When we actually decide if we are horny for someone in just 1 second from a picture and zero knowledge about that person.
Many years ago, I worked for a company that hired the hot one instead of the competent one. And it was amazing to see the twisted justification. But, I believe that the hiring manager was not aware and was convinced that the decision was based on the bogus conclusions.

I would expect even worse bias when you do not feel observed and you are not a student that may have knowledge about the concept of biased decisions.
