What is the meaning of "ero" in Japanese?

This word appeared late in Japan. It seemed エロスcould only be read in academic writings. People have invented a hybrid adjective Eroi (エロい), denoting erotic. Ir became popular among civil.

Thus エロ can be noun and adjective.

Ero is short form of Eros (エロス).

Why do people turn a blind eye to bad behaviour if someone is very good looking? Whereas if someone is ugly, they get harshly judged for everything?
