<upd_detl>I wonder whether the phrasing here is quite right. In particular, I don't think the word "only" is good - it implies that the target of these does not have anything beyond physical looks.

For example, a mother might think to herself, うちの娘、面食いだわ if her daughter brings home a so-called pretty boy. It does not make judgement that the boy is poor in character, just that the boy is handsome and that was what the daughter was attracted to.

Could something like "person who falls for pretty people easily" work? I think it would be more accurate.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>All the JEs and Eijiro use "only" in one or more of the glosses. Point taken though - I'll amend the second one to make it a bit less "only". It's similar to GG5's gloss.</upd_detl>
