What is the meaning of "ero" in Japanese?

Ero is short form of Eros (エロス).

Thus エロ can be noun and adjective.

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.

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?
