How about "that girl looks hot"?

We judge. It is what it is.

Yeah, you're correct. I actually toyed with pre-empting this argument but appending it would have taken from my other point. I should clarify that the judging I speak of in the quote really applies to negative judging. It's a poor generalisation I understand that. There's semantics here in the context the word is used though that goes beyond it's simple dictionary definition.

I think the difference is that one form of judgement is the simple subjective from, using your example "I don't like the way he/she looks". The negative form of judging I speak of would be to make this judgement and hold it against their character, something far too many people do.
