Probably heavily photoshopped, but this is clearly a real person. AI wouldn't be able to draw the clean hiragana on the dress in picture 11, or make such a percise reflection as in picture 7.
Yes, and it's also kind of a good thing. If all men had the same taste in women, they would compete for a small subset of them while leaving the rest beside. Nature balances this on its own.
I mean, I have noticed a generational aspect to it. One day me, my parents, my mother's friend and her son (also gen Z) were having dinner together and somehow the topic of dating has come up (we both have fairly poor luck in this regard). I don't remember why, but I did mention that I like Asians, and he also strongly agreed. Our parents found it strange, not in a hateful way, but in a "Huh, weird" one. They think that Slav girls are the most physically attractive (we're Eastern European). I don't really know the reason for why this divide exists. Maybe we're more exposed to Asian girls in media? Maybe our beauty standards are just very different? Might be the latter, since I looked through your favourites and haven't found anyone I rated above a 9 (except Denise Schaefer, she's pretty), they all seem to me like they have... too masculine faces? Or at least too angular.
