Vipros1) Your argument is brilliant.
2) I don't think anybody has considerable concious control over what they do and don't find attractive so I'd say it probably is a very subconscious mechanism. Obviously we're consciously aware of feelings of attraction.
If what I'm suggesting resembles the truth in any way it would most likely have developed at a time before human society developed monogamy and would just be a hangover from that period as there's be no significant benefit to not having those unconscious drives.
