How do you have an attraction preference w/o turn ons/offs?

This attraction system is soooooo unnecessarily complicated. I put a few new sims in my game to provide options for other sims to date. These new sims do not have any turn ons/offs; yet, they have attraction preferences. How can you be "Very Unattracted" or "Extremely Attracted" to sims when you have no preferences?

My main sim has been dating another sim that finds them "Very Unattracted", yet they consistently have a "Very Satisfied" sentiment. Given the circumstances, even if I wanted to change things about my main sim, how would I know what to change??? Is there a way to work around this? 

Also, something else along the same lines: my sims checked herself out in the mirror and found herself to be "Basic". Again, what's the criteria for this? How am I supposed change these things?

    Turn-ons/turn-offs should be right next to the section in CAS where you can pick traits, likes and dislikes. If you own Lovestruck, there should be options to define what your Sim finds attractive in another Sim, like traits, colour of hair, fashion style, hobbies. 

    Maybe this helps, too: https://help.ea.com/en/help/the-sims/the-sims-4/the-sims-4-gender-romance-attraction-guide/
