Gender History

Physical appearance evaluation has historically targeted women more intensely; 'looks' carries gendered weight in contexts of judgment and worth.

Inclusive Usage

Use 'looks' neutrally for appearance only; be aware it often masks evaluation of women's bodies. Substitute 'appears' or 'seems' to reduce gendered overtones.

Inclusive Alternatives

["appears","seems","looks (appearance-only framing)"]

Related Words
