    It’s one of the ugly truths of human existence, that most people won’t admit.

    “Looks” absolutely play a large role in inter-human relationships. But since it carries a lot of unpleasant things most people don’t want to admit, they either ignore it, or outright lie about it to make themselves feel better.

    The research has been done “pretty” people earn more, get more promotions, and are generally more successful at life.

    Not to say your life is over if you’re not pretty. But there is a clear advantage.

        I think it’s more that western societies like to try to act like their instincts aren’t real. They’ll look you dead in the face and say “beauty means nothing to me!” Meanwhile their secretary is massively under qualified for the job but she got big tiddies.

        Or when a super hot woman is a total cunt but everyone let’s her get away with it because “ooh hot girl”

        It’s the same way with men I just used women as an example because I’m a dude who’s seen a lot of girls with shit personalities get treated like they can do no wrong.
