I think there are two different types of people who find physical appearance imporant - some people really don't have anything else to offer besides the physical. They focus so much on their outward appearance because once you scratch the surface and begin to dig deeper, there isn't much there. Other people may simply like to look their best, they may exercise/work out for health reasons which (most of the time) will lead to a better appearance, etc. I think it is most important to be healthy and look your best because YOU want to...not because of society's standards or because you have nothing else to offer.

Physical appearance is your interface with the visual world. About 80% of what humans experience is sensed visually. I can understand wanting to be healthy and look your best, and I can understand why there are people that take things too far.
We all want to believe that by changing just one thing, we can solve all our problems. It's a very tempting belief and can be seen in all areas of life. People believe that if they just made more money, lost some weight, lived somewhere else, were married, or had blonder hair they would be happier. And when the solve one problem, they just find something else to fixate on. The problem isn't needing to be physically perfect, the problem is believing that you can make your life perfect at all.

To all people. Some just say otherwise.
It is in the genes. The most beautiful people were the most productive: had more chances to have a lot of children, to kill a lot of beasts... Beauty is functional. Long legs= runs fast, big eyes=good eyesight, straight nose=less chances of getting a cold, because the air got more heated before it reaches the throat and lungs, small waist, wide hips=easy childbirth... It was like this for millions of years, it's too early to change. And maybe it never will.

Hi there!
Its a fashion, its a must need so says the beauty magazines, but it isn't true. We all have a different appearance and we should all be proud of it, and look as if the stick thin anorexic models are abnormal in this community.
Hope this helps!

Because our young children are conditioned by commercials and magazines and actresses to have the perfect looks. We have realisty shows about plastic surgery? Why I do not understand more than half of the US women are over weight and the few that are perfect make it miserable for those who are not physically perfect.

Appearance is everything. People hate to admit it, but it's true. It's like you see a woman with short shorts or short skirt and people automaticlly think she's easy or a slut. And then you get someone else who's dressed in business atire, and you instantly think otherwise.
Then you get the versatile confident independent hard-working women like myself that dresses any way she pleases, depending on my mood, and don't care who thinks what.

Because we are very simply evolved from other animals - all of which depend on appearance to tell them things about their potential mate's health. Long hair, big eyes, clear skin, straight teeth, big muscles, small bellies, etc. all tell us something about how healthy our mate it and what their children (and therefore our own genes) will be like.

because you want to make a good impression on people, you want them to see you in a certain way , you dont always get a chance to speak to everyone and let them know who you really are. then there is the growing up with princesses as your idols. then there are supermodels and beautiful actresses on tv. im not sure why guys are into their looks i think mostly to get a girl and respect.

It's hard to be with a person if you are not physically attracted to them in some sort of way. Plus, who wants to be seen in public with a disgusting slob.
