Pretty People?

Question

Do you think people are out going because they're pretty/handsome/whatever?
or pretty/handsome/whatever because they're outgoing?

PS: feel free to answer my other questions on this question. :)

Answer 1

I don't think physical attractiveness has much of a link with outgoing personality.
I've known so many extroverts who, while they may not have been really ugly, weren't going to win any beauty contests, either.
And I've also known many good-looking people who were quite shy and introverted (You might be surprised at how many attractive people don't think of themselves as being attractive.)
In fact, sometimes it almost seems that less physically attractive people tend to be more extroverted and outgoing - maybe they're consciously or subconsciously compensating for not being movie-star lovely.

Answer 2

Prettiness/beauty is subjective. I think it's the other way around. They're outgoing/confident because they feel pretty/handsome/whatever (geez, that's a lotta slashes lol). Conversely, people who may be deemed beautiful by a good chunk of your neighborhood may in fact, not be so pretty because of their inner quality. I'm serious when I say that your ugliness shows on the outside.

There are plenty of 'ugly duckling gone swan' cases out there. I think there are more of these cases than there are naturally "beautiful" and "goodhearted" people.

Answer 3

People who are outgoing often feel more attractive and have more confidence. Others find this attractive. Look at Bill Clinton, not really a handsome man (more average), but he has sparkle and personality and people pay attention whether they like him or not. Outward beauty can fade fast, but intelligence, personality and kindness last and that's what people really remember. And when we think of someone fondly they are attractive to us.

Answer 4

I believe they're outgoing because they're confident or have high self-esteem, usually both, which is a direct result of past successes. Basically speaking, they've been successful in the past in a social environment and thus they're comfortable now in social situations due to that.

Answer 5

Yes, our society dictates this in every way. Acceptance is a cruel creature that seems to manifest itself more with "pretty people". I do think that outgoing people get more of a response because they are more easy to access than a non outgoing person.

Answer 6

I think that makes no differences. I know people who are so called pretty who are very shy and others who are not so pretty and very outgoing. Personality is not necessarily based on looks but sometimes looks can effect someones personality generally due to others comments and criticism or glorification's. It depends on the person.

Answer 7

People are outgoing because that's what their personality is like. I know some beautiful ladies and drop-dead sexy guys that are really introverted. I also know some that are really extroverted. And I know some people with an unfortunate genetic configuration that are really outgoing, and some that are really introverted.

Answer 8

It's a conbination of both questions. Some 'beautiful' ppl are very snobish (guys & girls) they think they are better than those a little less attractive.
Some 'less attractive' ppl are far more appealing because the have great personalities.

Answer 9

i dont think u have to be pretty to be outgoing, i definitely think though that having an outgoing personality does make you more appealling, cuz it means you are approachable :)

Answer 10

it's possible for someone to be outgoing because thier looks give them confidence, but...how would being outgoing make someone become attractive? it doesn't work that way.
