On the other hand, it also implies the reverse: the features that one would normally expect to be _negatively impactful_ to one's perceived sexual attractiveness shouldn't actually do so in reality, as long as those features aren't hereditary. So, things like bad haircuts, horrible burn scars, a constant need to derail every conversation into a digression about Klingon culture, a humorless personality--none of those should matter in the long run as long as the man would be attractive without it. I can't say that I'm onboard with this idea or not. I only read the article because of the funny name.
