Jumpin' on that bandwagon.

Lestrade would acknowledge that Donovan is a confident and attractive woman. And then probably promptly squint at whoever was asking him.

Can see the appeal, does not care.

Jilly thinks Sally is pretty! That's...it, really. But Booth will find her very attractive.

He likes tough, intelligent, independent women

Sherlock can understand "attractive." He's just... Sherlock.

If Sherlock doesn't find Sally attractive it is precisely no amount of skin off her nose

As for Lestrade: aww, thanks. But don't let her see the squinting because she will want to know what the hell it's supposed to mean.

Probably a relief, really. haha.

I think if he ever called her good-looking for some reason (bad drugs? idek) she would be sort of offended.

I mean, primarily because whenever Sherlock speaks she's offended as just a Pavlovian response.

He's just saying, he has to think of the best way to inform someone that people will literally destroy them if things go awry

If he ever called her good-looking, it would be in the sense of "I need something for a case and I need a good-looking woman to

get access to whatever it is. SALLY! GUESS WHO GETS TO HELP."

Lestrade would have to order her, and then she would not speak to him for a week for ordering her. It'd be bad, man.

Sally is kind of twelve about some things. This contributes to me theory that she actually liked Sherlock at first.

...Because he is also twelve.

...Yep.
