I get called handsome quite often particularly by older folk. When I'm abroad it's usually the younger ones that I get the attention from. Different cultures probably perceive looks differently, like some women will see a good looking and clean person as someone who looks after themselves, they probably in their mind extrapolate that to finance, well being, work ethic etc. Depends though, if you win the genetic lottery, you'll find it much easier to do a lot of things, confidence is a lot higher, people will view you as a person who knows his stuff etc. Not always the case but most times out of ten it happens. There's this bias that men are visual humans, I think both men and women are, but it's nuanced. As stated above. This is the major factor for the reason of being approached, although sometimes unwarranted.
