"When our rivals are equally good at predicting the exam questions, we need a new ground to outrun them," Ng said. "And that is the tutor's appearance."
I don't think I'd be comfortable being marketed as a sex object, as nothing more than a piece of meat. That's why this tutoring gig appeals to me so much--I'd be marketed as a smart piece of meat.
