Attraction and how handsome a person is, yes. I agree completely. Masculinity however, is not subjective. It is the opposite of femininity. It's an energy that encompasses traits, demeanor, qualities, and attributes characteristic of a male. If someone appears or looks masculine that has more to do with the vibe they give off, and/or taking the word out of context. A man or a woman who is masculine, is someone who embraces that energy. I can admit that G'raha is handsome, but his boyish qualities which I don't find appealing puts me off. I was more drawn to him as the Exarch, before we even see what he looks like. At that point there were aspects to him that were shrouded in mystery. He cloaked himself, appeared battle worn, his crystalized arm, and how he carried himself all gave off massive amounts of masculine energy. All that kind of went away when we recruit him as the newest Scion. However, he still has moments where that inner Exarch comes out, and I really enjoy it when it does.
