For a long time, people knew little about the psychology of disgust at ugliness. However, many studies have shown that things that humans consider ugly are often related to diseases, such as bodies and facial features that are similar to pathological features, or even objects that carry potential disease risks.

Some researchers have found through investigations that when people see ugly human faces, ugly animals, or even some ugly buildings to a lesser extent, they will experience emotions of disgust or even active avoidance.

This ugly judgment is especially evident when a person has symptoms related to a disease.

This mechanism of the brain reminds us to pay attention to and avoid possible pathogen infection.

In fact, this is not difficult to understand. Early humans lived a life of eating raw meat and drinking blood and did not know the existence of pathogens.

When faced with an epidemic, most people were killed by pathogens, but those who rejected ugly faces were lucky enough to survive because they stayed away from pathogens. Throughout the history of human evolution, we have faced countless epidemics. In the process of repeated elimination, the ones who finally survived were our ancestors who had a natural aversion to ugliness.
