This is your reminder, that you can find value and worth in someone's work and appreciate them as a fan without needing to sexualize them. Yes this is true even if you find them attractive. You might think that lady is hot, but you can be a fan of her for the sake of what she creates and works hard on; without sexualizing her to the point of only being her fan because she's hot.

This is even true for sex workers and adult entertainment folks. We are not often seen for the quality or effort we put into our work; but it's always very appreciated when we are.
