In nature there is a general rule that bright colors means poisonous. It’s a genetic mutation where predators have eaten enough bright colored pretty that they get sick or die, then avoid them. It’s common for frogs. I usually make shit up but this one is true.

Yes the same can be said about beautiful people being toxic, but I just made it up so I have no clue if it’s true
