Do you think attractive people are treated better then others?

Question

This was the topic on the Tyra Banks show today.

How do you feel about this?

Answer 1

Yes. I think physical beauty is one of the many blessings that human beings have been endowed with. Let's face it, it's nice to have attractive people around. The problem is that in our society because of the shallower part of our human nature, we have placed more value on external appearance than on what's really inside. I for one think that that is a major reason why we see so many divorces in Hollywood. People become infatuated with looks and then become incredibly let down when they come to realize who the person really is. It doesn't take much work to love a pretty face, but it takes a lot of work to build and maintain a healthy relationship. (Hope I didn't go on too much of a tangent there...)

Answer 2

yes, sadly... i actually do think that more attractive people are treated just a bit nicer. i mean im not that attractive, but when i was younger guys would stay away from me, and they would always hang out with the smarter, and prettier girls. which i didnt think was right. sometimes when a guy sees like a really obese girl, they will make fun of her, or try staying away from her so the guy doesnt get teased, its really sad but its really true.

people should be treated equally, if adam and eve never listened to that snake, then people wouldnt be like this, and people wouldnt be making fun of what other people look like, everyone is different and their all different for a reason. we werent put on earth to all look like britney spears, or jessica simpson. we are supposed to be our own person because everyone is made perfectly for their certain someone. and if everyone is getting plastic surgery and changing themselves, then that just basically defeats the purpose of finding the ones we were meant to be with.

Answer 3

yes, i actually saw a study that was done with 1500 families on this subject. the topic was do good looking children get taken care of better than uglier children by their parents. the study proved yes, while no parent admitted that their kid was ugly, actions spoke way louder than words. i wish i had time to find the link to post the study was done in Canada i believe. they followed some of the children through kindergarten, and did similar tests on them, they had a pretty woman read to them and they had a average woman read to them. when asked which reader they like more the pretty person won, they sad she was smarter and nicer just based on her looks!

Answer 4

Absolutely

Answer 5

For sure. Try walking into Bloomingdales, Nordstroms or something like that dressed 2 totally different ways, all dolled up, and dressed WAY down and see what happens......and thats something you can controll. Men open doors for prettier slim women, pay more attention and so on. I hate to say it, but it is true.

Answer 6

Definitely.

Answer 7

I think attractive people get treated better by other attractive people, but I don't think they do by less attractive people, so I guess it works both ways. Attractive people may look down on less attractive people, as do less attractive people may think attractive people are snobs. Tongue Twister or what?!

Answer 8

YES THEY ARE TREATED BETTER THEN OTHERS. BUT IN SOME CASES THEY ARE NOT. WHAT EVER PERSON FEELS ABOUT EACH OTHER ITS ON THEM. PEOPLE SHOULD LOOK BEYOND LOOKS.

Answer 9

yes....they even did an experiment with kindergartners with two teachers one pretty the other one not so much and asked them which one they thought was smarter....they picked the pretty one based only on how she looked. its just like that...unfortunately

Answer 10

yes i do and it is a shame too because most times they are ugly in personality and not good people to be around.
